Human and mouse cortical astrocytes: a comparative view from development to morphological and functional characterization

Astrocytes exert a neurotrophic function, but also take active part in supporting synaptic transmission and in calibrating blood circulation. Many aspects of their functioning have been unveiled from studie...
