- Marker Expression and Morphology: Spinal Astrocytes (BX-0650) express key astrocyte markers GFAP (green) and S100β (red) at >90% and exhibit mature process-bearing morphologies (shown here with a DAPI stain).
- Labelling by the spinal-specific marker HOXB4 (red) with a Hoescht stain highlights the regional specificity of the Spinal Astrocytes
-
Function: Spinal Astrocytes (BX-0650) promote mature motor neuron activity. Co-culturing motor neurons with spinal astrocytes promotes maximal calcium influx within 10 days.
-
Co-culture spinal astrocytes with motor neurons also accelerates the development of activity recorded by multi-electrode array.
