Abstract

Astrocytes are essential for maintaining brain homeostasis. Alterations in their activity have been associated with various brain pathologies. Sex differences were reported to affect astrocyte development and activity, and even susceptibility to different neurodegenerative diseases. This review aims to summarize the current knowledge on the effects of sex on astrocyte activity in health and disease.
