Insulin influences astroglial morphology and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expression in organotypic cultures.

Brain research - 6 Sept 1991

Toran-Allerand C D, Bentham W, Miranda R C, Anderson J P

Abstract excerpt

Variations in the levels and timing of exposure to insulin-related peptides influence the phenotypic appearance of astroglia present in organotypic cultures of the E17 mouse cerebellum as well as the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) mRNA and its encoded protein. The morphology of GFAP-immunoreactive cells was influenced by the levels of insulin added in an age-specific manner. Fetal radial...
