Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Bone-marrow-derived multipotent progenitor stromal cells — or mesenchymal stem cells ... the ganglioside GD2 and CD271 (low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor), and they are recognized ...

GBS is a nerve disease that affects senses, movements, breathing, and heartbeat in humans. The condition, in which the body’s immune system attacks nerves, can cause paralysis and even death.

Cell signalling is the mechanism by which stimuli are transmitted via a signalling cascade to effector molecules that orchestrate the appropriate response. Types of cell signalling pathways ...

The RSC96 cells (a spontaneously ... In a zebrafish model of nerve regeneration, axons in wild-type zebrafish were regenerated properly, while the follower axons in LRP4 mutants could not regenerate ...

A node of Ranvier: a single teased sciatic nerve fibre stained for neurofilament (red) and neurofascin (green). Neurofascin is present at the node (centre) and at the paranodal axoglial junctions that ...
