Abstract

Astrocytes are the most abundant cells in the brain. They have many important functions in the central nervous system (CNS), including the maintenance of glutamate and ion homeostasis, the elimination of oxidative stress, energy storage in glycogen, tissue repair, regulating synaptic activity by releasing neurotransmitters, and participating in synaptic formation. Astrocytes have special highly ramified structure. Their branches contact with synapses of neurons inwardly, with fine structure and wrapping synapses; their feet contact with blood vessels of brain parenchyma outward, almost wrapping the whole brain. The adjacent astrocytes rarely overlap and communicate with each other through gap junction channels. The ideal location of astrocytes enables them to sense the weak changes of their surroundings and provide the structural basis for the energy supply of neurons. Neurons and astrocytes are closely coupled units of energy metabolism in the brain. Neurons consume a lot of ATPs in the process of neurotransmission. Astrocytes provide metabolic substrates for neurons, maintain high activity of neuron, and facilitate information transmission of neurons. This article reviews the characteristics of glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism of astrocytes. The metabolic interactions between astrocytes and neurons, astrocytes and microglia were also detailed discussed. Finally, we classified analyzed the role of metabolic disorder of astrocytes in the occurrence and development of neurodegenerative diseases.

  • As neurons acquire maturity and brain total cholesterol reaches a plateau, astrocytes become largely responsible for maintaining lipid homeostasis in the brain.

    “Neurons and astrocytes synthesize cholesterol in development, but as neurons acquire maturity and brain total cholesterol reaches a plateau stage, astrocytes become largely responsible for maintaining lipid homeostasis in the brain (Jin et al., 2019; Chen et al., 2023).”

    From Astrocytes in fragile X syndrome (2024) · cites this paper as Chen et al., 2023

    The “Lipid metabolism of astrocytes” section describes astrocytes as a main site of cholesterol synthesis and essential to brain lipid homeostasis. It does not describe a developmental shift in responsibility as neurons mature or say that total brain cholesterol reaches a plateau; the “Metabolic interaction between astrocytes and neurons” section does not establish that timing either. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
