Por fim, os astrócitos também são ativos na resposta a lesões cerebrais. Eles formam uma cicatriz glial para limitar os danos e participam da reparação dos tecidos. Sua capacidade de se multiplicar e ...

Taking advantage of several genetic reporter and fate tracing tools, the authors provide solid evidence for different forms of glial plasticity, that are increased upon injury. The significance of the ...

The impact of senescent cells on remyelination is unknown. Here, the authors show that treatment with senolytics following demyelination enhances remyelination in young, but not aged mice, and ...

Glial cells, including microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes, are the primary components of the peri-infarct environment in the central nervous system (CNS) and have been implicated in ...

Glial cells, consisting of microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocyte lineage cells as their major components, constitute a large fraction of the mammalian brain. Originally considered as purely ...
