Protocol for in vitro analysis of pro-inflammatory and metabolic functions of cultured primary murine astrocytes

Summary: Robust protocols are required to investigate in vitro the molecular mechanisms that control astrocyte metabolism and pro-inflammatory activities. In the present protocol, we describe step by step the isolation and culture of primary murine astrocytes from neonatal brains, followed by their...
