GDNF overexpression in astrocytes enhances branching and partially preserves hippocampal function in an Alzheimer’s rat model

Abstract Astrocytes are essential for maintaining neuronal health and regulating the brain’s inflammatory environment. In this study, we developed an adeno-associated viral vector (AAV9) designed to selectively overexpress glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in astrocytes, using the a...
