Gomori-positive subsets of these non-muscle cells are rich in degenerated mitochondria. Corkscrew-shaped aggregates called Rosenthal fibers are mostly composed of these cells’ namesake fibrillary acidic protein. EAAT1/2 (“E-A-A-T-one-two”) facilitates the reuptake of glutamate into these cells. In response to injury, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans produced by these cells accumulate in their namesake scars. The alkylating agent temozolomide is used to treat WHO Grade III and IV blastomas of these cells. The Bergmann type of these cells is abundant in the Purkinje layer. Synaptic pruning is mediated by phagocytic “micro” forms of these cells. Star-shaped types of these cells have foot processes that form the blood-brain barrier. For 10 points, name these supportive non-neuronal cells of the CNS. ■END■
