GFAP (Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein) is a key marker in neuro research, particularly for its role in identifying astrocyte activity. It is predominantly expressed in astrocytes, the most abundant glial cells in the brain and spinal cord. Altered GFAP levels are associated with various neurological conditions, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), traumatic brain injury (TBI) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Researchers use GFAP to assess astrocytic response and neuroinflammation, making it essential for understanding the extent of brain injury and the progression of neurodegenerative diseases.
