Over the past two decades it became evident that the immune system plays a central role in
modulating learning, memory and neural plasticity. Under normal quiescent conditions …

Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the main intermediate filament protein in mature
astrocytes, but also an important component of the cytoskeleton in astrocytes during …

Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an astrocytic cytoskeletal protein, can be measured in
blood samples, and has been associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, plasma …

Astrocytes become activated (reactive) in response to many CNS pathologies, such as
stroke, trauma, growth of a tumor, or neurodegenerative disease. The process of astrocyte …

Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) is the main astrocytic intermediate filament (IF). GFAP
