BioArt In the brains of mammals, in addition to a large number of neurons, there are also a large number of glial cells. These glial cells are widely involved in various aspects of advanced brain functions. Among them, astrocytes, as one of the most abundant glial cells in the mammalian brain, play a crucial role in the functioning of the brain, including participating in synaptic pruning, formation of the blood-brain barrier, and regulation of brain homeostasis balance. Moreover, an increasing number of studies indicate that astrocytes are directly involved in the processing of neural circuit information, and their developmental disorders may trigger various brain diseases. It is worth noting that the morphology and transcriptome characteristics of astrocytes exhibit high heterogeneity in different brain regions and even within the same brain region. During the development of the brain, the origin of astrocytes, namely the location of neural stem cells, determines the ...
