S100B is an astrocyte calcium-binding protein that plays a regulatory role in the cytoskeleton
and cell cycle. Moreover, extracellular S100B, a marker of glial activation in several …

S100B is a calcium-binding protein expressed and secreted by astrocytes, playing a
neurotrophic role in neighboring cells. A protective role of the S100B against glutamate …

Several molecules have been shown to be involved in glial-neuronal communication,
including S100B, an astrocyte-derived neurotrophic cytokine. Extracellular S100B protects …

Astrocytes are the major glial cells in brain tissue and are involved, among many functions,
ionic and metabolic homeostasis maintenance of synapses. These cells express receptors …

Serotonin (5-HT) can induce a release of intraglial S-100B and produce a change in glial
morphology. Because S-100B can inhibit polymerization of glial fibrillary acidic protein …
