Cell Name: Human Astrocytes-Brain

  • Description
    Human Astrocytes-Brain are a type of glial cells derived from the human brain tissue. These cells can express glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), a hallmark feature of astrocytes. They are also able to secrete a variety of growth factors such as TGF-β1 . Human brain astrocytes exhibit stellate morphology with multiple branching processes and adhere to culture vessels, growing in a monolayer under standard conditions.These cells play an important role in promoting neuronal survival and synapse formation. Studies have shown that there are three Ca²⁺ signaling related genes (RYR3, MRVI1, and RGN) that are enriched in human astrocytes . These genes regulate intracellular calcium dynamics, influencing astrocyte-neuron communication and neuroprotective functions. Due to their involvement in neurotrophic support, synaptic modulation, and inflammatory responses, human astrocytes serve as an essential model for studying neurodegenerative diseases, neurodevelopmental disorders, and neural repair mechanisms.
