The development of the GVU is a complex process involving multiple steps and intricate interactions among astrocytes, neural cells, and vascular components. In this review, we aim to summarize the ...

Since astrocytes have many processes and can link up with many different synapses, they may dramatically increase the storage capacity of the brain while also keeping it very efficient. However, more ...

GROTON, Conn., June 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Astrocyte Pharmaceuticals Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company today announced two major milestones that could change the way we protect ...

Astrocyte has begun dosing athletes in its Phase 2 STARFAST trial, a first-of-its-kind study taking place in Adelaide, Australia, with players from the Adelaide Football League. Male and female ...

A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and someday, it could inspire advances in AI and Alzheimer's research.

Astrocytes do a lot of supporting jobs in the brain. They clean up debris, provide nutrients, and make sure neurons get enough oxygen. They also have these tiny “tentacles” that wrap around ...

It is now known that astrocytes modulate the activity at the tripartite synapses where indirect signaling via the retrograde messengers, endocannabinoids, leads to a localized self-repairing ...
