The same brain cells linked to disorientation in Alzheimer's disease have been preserved—and even slightly increased—across ...

All starting from the same DNA, neurons ultimately take on individual characteristics in the brain and body. Differences in ...

Investigators at Cedars-Sinai have created computer-generated models to bridge the gap between "test tube" data about neurons and the function of those cells in the living brain. Their study, ...

Altering a protein in the neurons that coordinate a rattlesnake’s movement made a slow slither neuron more like a speedy rattle neuron, showing one way evolution can generate new ways of moving. In ...

Type-one nNOS neurons die off when exposed to stress, resulting in a drop in blood flow and electrical activity in mice brains.

A major neuroscience breakthrough has been achieved with the help of an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithm. In a study published this month in Cell, a multinational team of ...

Kimberlee D'Ardenne currently receives funding from the National Institutes of Health (R21-MH130924-01) and has received other funding from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science ...

Researchers at Cincinnati Children's have discovered that macrophages, a type of immune cell, connect with muscle fibers to promote rapid healing. This neuron-like mechanism involves the release of ...

A research team has found that specific immune cells can connect with muscle fibers in a lightning-fast, neuron-like way to ...
