Scientists have uncovered a crucial pathway that links brain cell activity to the activation of genes responsible for ...

Drugs targeting amyloid plaques have failed to show efficacy in clinical trials. A new approach is needed to tackle AD ...

Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy lifting in the nervous system, it's the glia that provide nutrients, clean up waste, and ...

The finding may open a whole new world in the study of Alzheimer's disease, said biophysicist Aneta Stefanovska.

Weill Cornell Medicine investigators have identified in a preclinical model a specific brain circuit whose inhibition appears to reduce anxiety without side effects.

The revised work remains incomplete due to remaining concerns about experimental methodology, cell health, and lack of dendritic Na-spikes which have been recorded in previous works. Non-linear ...

The field of neuroscience has long been intrigued by the complex dynamics of neurons in the cerebral cortex, particularly the transformation of synaptic ...

Overall, these weaknesses are minor. This manuscript aims to follow up on a previously published paper (Busch and Hansel 2023) which proposed that the morphological variation of dendritic bifurcation ...

The actin cytoskeleton mediates multiple processes depending on the cell types. In neurons, axon outgrowth and dendritic spine dynamics regulation. In brain vasculature, Rho GTPases regulate ...
