Syndeio Biosciences today announced its launch to pioneer precision neurotherapeutics focused on repairing and enhancing synaptic function in central nervous system (CNS) diseases. The company's ...

Researchers from the lab led by Prof. Joris De Wit (VIB-KU Leuven) have discovered an important clue to how connections ...

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and ...

Researchers have a new hypothesis for how brain cells called astrocytes might contribute to memory storage in the brain. Their model, known as dense associative memory, would help explain the brain's ...

Presynaptic NMDA receptors can shape timing-dependent long-term depression in a way that departs from their classic postsynaptic role.

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and ...

A research team has identified a molecular mechanism that coordinates the operation of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) ...

“This technique provides a lens into the synaptic architecture of memory, something previously unattainable in such detail,” said Adam Cohen, professor of chemistry and chemical biology and of ... the ...

Therefore, studies into molecular mechanisms of synapse biology not only provide fundamental insights into the functional core of the nervous system but also lay the foundation for the development of ...
