The Role of Astrocytes in the Neurorepair Process

The Role of Astrocytes in the Neurorepair Process

Astrocytes are highly specialized glial cells responsible for trophic and metabolic support of neurons. They are associated to ionic homeostasis, the regulation of cerebral blood flow and metabolism, the modulation of synaptic activity by capturing and recycle of neurotransmitters and maintenance of...
