Product Overview

Description

Astrocytes constitute 20-40% of the total number of cells in the mammalian brain. Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles with a plethora of functions, including regulation of calcium homeostasis, energy metabolism, and inflammatory activation. Scientists found that mitochondrial dysfunction in astrocytes is related with may CNS diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.

iNeu™ Human Astrocytes for Mitochondrial Sensor Assay from Creative Biolabs are derived from human iPSCs and expresses typical astrocyte markers (GFAP and S100β). Besides, we introduce mitochondria sensors into those cells, which respond to mitochondrial calcium changes in the 605nm-625nm fluorescent range. NCL-2103-P60 is useful in vitro model for uncovering the mechanisms of astrocyte mitochondrial dysfunction in CNS diseases.
