A schematic illustration of an astrocyte, a star-shaped glial cell of the CNS (central nervous system), showing a central soma with numerous tapering processes radiating outward. In neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, this cell type resides within brain and spinal cord tissue, where it supports neurons by regulating extracellular ion and neurotransmitter levels, supplying metabolic substrates, and contributing to BBB (blood–brain barrier) maintenance and synaptic modulation. The illustration depicts a single cell within neural tissue hierarchy: a glial cell within CNS parenchyma.
