Glial cell morphological and density changes through the lifespan of rhesus macaques

Highlights • Astrocytes become more complex during aging, peaking in adulthood. • Most complexity increase occurs close to astrocyte cell body. • Microglia become less complex, indicating possible activation. • Depression in eugeric aging could have a glial component.
