Astrocytes are the majority cell type of the mammalian brain.
CD57 Mouse Cerebellar Astrocytes are primary glial cells isolated from the cerebellar tissue of neonatal C57BL/6 mice. Cells are derived from healthy neonatal C57BL/6 mice with no known neurological abnormalities. These star-shaped cells represent a major component of the central nervous system (CNS) glia and are responsible for maintaining neuronal homeostasis, regulating synaptic transmission, and supporting the blood-brain barrier. After isolation, the astrocytes are cryopreserved at an early passage to preserve their native characteristics. Morphologically, they display a stellate appearance and grow as adherent monolayers in vitro. These cells do not proliferate indefinitely and cannot be passaged multiple times, so repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided. C57BL/6 cerebellar astrocytes typically express GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein), S100β, and ALDH1L1. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.

CD57 Mouse Cerebellar Astrocytes provide a robust in vitro model for studying glial-neuronal interactions, neuroinflammation, and cerebellar development. These cells are particularly suitable for mechanistic studies of cerebellar neurodegenerative disorders such as spinocerebellar ataxia and multiple system atrophy. In neuroinflammation research, cerebellar astrocytes can be used to investigate the astrocytic response to cytokines, offering insights into the cellular crosstalk during cerebellar injury and neurodegeneration. These astrocytes also support metabolic studies of cerebellar glial energy regulation under oxidative or excitotoxic stress, as well as for studying CD57 mouse synaptic plasticity.
