Astrocytes are now recognized as active players in the developing and mature central nervous system. Each astrocyte contacts vascular structures and thousands of synapses within discrete territories. These cells receive a myriad of inputs and generate appropriate responses to regulate the function of brain microdomains. Emerging evidence has implicated receptors of the ErbB tyrosine kinase family in the integration and processing of neuronal inputs by astrocytes: ErbB receptors can be activated by a wide range of neuronal stimuli; they control critical steps of glutamate-glutamine metabolism; and they regulate the biosynthesis and release of various glial-derived neurotrophic factors, gliomediators and gliotransmitters. These key properties of astrocytic ErbB signaling in neuron-glia interactions have significance for the physiology of the mature central nervous system, as exemplified by the central control of reproduction within the hypothalamus, and are also likely to contribute to pathological situations, since both dysregulation of ErbB signaling and glial dysfunction occur in many neurological disorders.
