astrocyte development Gene Set
Dataset
GO Biological Process Annotations 2025
Category
structural or functional annotations
Type
biological process
Description
The process aimed at the progression of an astrocyte over time, from initial commitment of the cell to a specific fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell. An astrocyte is the most abundant type of glial cell. Astrocytes provide support for neurons and regulate the environment in which they function. (Gene Ontology , GO_0014002 )
