Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular (Eph) receptors, including EphA4, are expressed on the cell surface and involved in brain development, which involves extensive pruning of synapses. A variant ...
Scientists have discovered that a specific type of brain cell, called an astrocyte, may be a key player in how cannabis ...
"The fact that we could alter mouse behavior by selectively manipulating an astrocyte ensemble poses an intriguing question: are astrocytes a substrate for memory? We plan to further investigate ...
When faced with chronic stress, why do some people develop anxiety and depressive symptoms while others show resilience? A ...
The researchers also found that some of these special, proliferative astrocytes were able to move from white matter to gray ...
Discover how cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) influences resilience to stress and its potential in treating anxiety and ...
In this review article, we focus on recent insights into the differential roles of microglia and astrocytes, particularly during early development of the brain. Figure 1. Timeline of microglia ...
This repository contains source code for the single-cell transcriptomics analysis of mouse astrocyte subtypes characterized by calcium responses to alcohol exposure [1].
A research team has identified subtypes of astrocytes in the white matter of the mouse brain, one of which possesses an astonishing ability to multiply. This discovery opens promising prospects for ...
Mice resilient to stress had more CB1 receptors in the BBB than mice with depressive-like behavior or mice not exposed to stress.
