Widespread Decrease of Cerebral Vimentin-Immunoreactive Astrocytes in Depressed Suicides

Widespread Decrease of Cerebral Vimentin-Immunoreactive Astrocytes in Depressed Suicides

Post-mortem investigations have implicated cerebral astrocytes immunoreactive (-IR) for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the etiopathology of depression and suicide. However, it remains unclear whether astrocytic subpopulations IR for other astrocytic markers are similarly affected. Astrocy...
