Astrocyte reactivity influences amyloid-β effects on tau pathology in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease
Aβ was associated with increased plasma phosphorylated tau only in individuals positive for astrocyte reactivity (Ast+).

Cognitive Decline May Be Triggered by Astrocyte Dysfunction
A new study reveals astrocyte dysfunction may be a driver of cognitive decline and memory loss in those with dementia. This may be caused by a protein build-up in the astrocytes that appears to trigger abnormal antiviral activity that results in memory loss.

Mistlecytes in the human #brain?
Aging-related tau astrogliopathy (ARTAG) refers to Tau #pathology associated with #astrocytes in aged humans. #Mistletoe is a parasitic plant often found in trees.
The AT8 antibody is commonly used to label phosphorylated (pSer202/Thr205) Tau. We have started referring to some of the AT8-immunoreactive astrocytes in our human brain samples as 'mistlecytes'. Do you see the resemblance?
But do they contribute to any kind of pathology or impairment, or are they simply part of 'normal' ageing? A good review about ARTAG can be found here: https://doi.org/10.1007/s00401-015-1509-x
