Astrocytic degeneration in the rat brain 13 months post-blast exposure. Electron micrographs of frontal cortical arterioles from control a and blast-exposed b–f rats. (*) indicates swollen astrocytic feet at different stages of degeneration. Arrow in a indicates a normal astrocytic endfoot. Arrow head in f shows an elongated mitochondria in an endothelial cell.
