Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Alterations in astrocyte function such as a pro-inflammatory phenotype are associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We had shown impairments in the ability of aged astrocytes isolated from 5xFAD mice to clear and uptake amyloid-β (Aβ) as well as to support neuronal growth. Senescent cells accumulate with age and exhibit a senescence-associated secretory phenotype, which includes secretion of pr...
