These include astrocytes which have cellular processes coming off their cell body, giving them a star-shaped appearance.

神经胞包括星形胞，它们的胞体发出许多长而分支的突起，使其呈现星形外观。

Among the fibers is the structural protein glial fibrillary acidic protein that is typically found in astrocytes.

这些纤维中有结构状蛋白——纤维酸性蛋白，这些蛋白通常存在于星形胞中。

It actually stems from these specific cells in your brain called astrocytes.

它实际上源于大脑中称为星形胞的特定胞。

They are typically named by the cell type involved, so for example an astrocytoma is a tumor formed by mutated astrocytes.

脑肿瘤通常以变异胞的类型命名，比如，星形胞瘤由变异的星形胞形成。

Neurons aren't the only cells affected in Alzheimer's disease; astrocytes and microglia also play a role.

神经元阿尔茨海默病中唯一受影响的胞。星形胞和小胞也发挥作用。

Astrocytes are found throughout the brain and spinal cord, and their main roles include maintaining the blood-brain barrier, providing nourishment to neurons, and recycling neurotransmitters.

星形胞遍布大脑和脊髓，它们的主要作用维持血脑屏障，为神经胞提供营养以及回收神经递。

Ammonia appears to mainly target astrocytes, a type of glial cell in the brain, and although the mechanisms aren't fully understood, ammonia seems to cause astrocyte swelling and oxidative damage.

氨主要出现在星形胞中，它脑内的一种神经胞，虽然具体的机制我们仍然清楚，过氨似乎能导致星形胞肿大和氧化损伤。

Because astrocytes are found through the brain and spinal cord, astrocytomas can form throughout those locations, but juvenile pilocytic astrocytomas are mostly infratentorial tumors in the cerebellum or near the brainstem.

因为星形胞遍布大脑和脊髓，星形胞瘤也可以遍布在这些部位，但青少年毛胞星形胞瘤大多数位于小脑内或脑干旁的脑幕下肿瘤。
