English: Astrocytes are stellated white cells connected by gap junctions. The astroglial matrix surrounds neuronal axons and dendrites. The interstitial space is near virtual (20 to 62 nm width) in physiological conditions. The addition of synaptic currents, action potential currents, and astroglial ionic currents generate local field potential (LFP) in the intercellular space with their corresponding local magnetic field potential (LMFP). Ca2+ waves generate current gradients into the astroglial network with their inherent bioelectric and biomagnetic fields that modulate adjacent neuronal behavior by influencing the LFPs and LMFPs.
