Cell Name: C57BL/6 Mouse Astrocytes-Brain

  • Description
    C57BL/6 Mouse Astrocytes are primary cells isolated from the brain tissue of pathogen-free C57BL/6 mice. These glial cells exhibit a star-shaped morphology with branched processes . As non-proliferative primary cultures, they are cryopreserved at earliest passage and recommended for use within 3-5 passages to maintain functional integrity, as extended subculturing may lead to senescence. Functionally, these astrocytes support neuronal homeostasis through glutamate uptake, ion balance regulation, and metabolic coupling via glucose-lactate shuttling. They actively participate in blood-brain barrier maintenance and modulate neuroinflammation. Each vial contains at least 1×10^6 cells per ml.

  • Application
    C57BL/6 Mouse Astrocytes are widely utilized in neuroscience research to model neuroinflammatory responses and neurodegenerative pathologies, including Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis. These cells serve as powerful tools for studying blood-brain barrier interactions, particularly in co-culture systems with endothelial cells to mimic neurovascular unit dynamics.
