Research indicates that following the onset of an acquired brain injury (ABI), the brain initiates an immediate ...

Using a single-cell sequencing technique, Brazilian researchers have created the first cell atlas of focal cortical dysplasia ...

They act as signal controllers, relaying important information between sensory and motor neurons. There are two types: Local interneurons: These interneurons have short axons and work with nearby ...

Xenon is one of the six noble gases. Its name derives from the Greek word for “strange”. In medicine, it has been used as an anaesthetic since the early 1950s and, more recently, to treat brain ...

the ’electrical coupling between neurons’ of the title), and that the nature of this influence depends on the physical configuration of the synapse. As an experimental neuroscientist who has never ...

Neurons generate ... More details of the end-end synapse simulation Comparison of experimental data from Blot and Barbour (2014) on modulation of Purkinje cell activity (grey lines) with our RTM model ...

A new study has identified a group of neurons that, when activated, can induce a hypometabolic state, akin to hibernation. The discovery could have far-reaching implications for conditions like ...

The inability of adults to produce new neurons was pretty much the central dogma of neuroscience ... If we knocked out just the glucose transporter type four, we saw more than a two-fold improvement ...

By combining different datasets, they found that schizophrenia risk genes were associated with specific neurons in the retina. The involved risk genes suggest an impairment of synapse biology ...

Its pathological hallmark is the abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein (α-syn) into insoluble fibrils and Lewy bodies, leading to the degeneration and death of dopaminergic neurons in the ...
