A new study reveals that transplanting healthy human glial progenitor cells into adult mice with Huntington’s disease can delay motor and cognitive decline and extend lifespan.

New research sheds light on the mechanisms of degeneration in multiple sclerosis, suggesting that mitochondrial dysfunction ...

New research reveals that individual neurons in the hippocampus can respond to both slow and fast brain waves at the same ...

“The CL1 does this in real time using simple code abstracted through multiple interacting layers of firmware and hardware,” ...

Flies that expressed an Alzheimer’s disease-related protein in their neurons showed signs of accelerated aging.

Gastruloids are stem cell-derived models that replicate a key phase of early embryonic development: the third week of ...

MIT researchers propose a groundbreaking theory highlighting astrocytes' crucial role in memory storage, challenging the ...

A new model suggests that astrocytes might be used in computation, coordinating with neurons and connecting synapses in ...

CPGs. Their model shows that cell-type-specific connectivity and a dominant inhibitory drive could underlie rhythm generation. Excitatory input could act to enhance the frequency range of these ...

Symmetry is a fundamental characteristic of most multi-cell animals. However, the cell division of embryonic cells is asymmetric. A team led by Prof. Dr. Esther Zanin at the Department of Biology at ...

Gene delivery systems can target specific brain cells, a breakthrough that could lead to treatments for Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases.

Discover how neurodegenerative diseases may start with blood-brain barrier damage, leading to memory loss and cognitive decline.
