Endothelial Cells and Astrocytes: A Concerto en Duo in Ischemic Pathophysiology
The neurovascular/gliovascular unit has recently gained increased attention in cerebral ischemic research, especially regarding the cellular and molecular changes that occur in astrocytes and endothelial cells. In this paper we summarize the recent knowledge of these changes in association with edem...
