Scientists have identified a brain pathway that could help slow Parkinson’s disease by protecting the brain’s dopamine-producing neurons. However, the benefit was seen only in females.

Scientists have uncovered new evidence that certain immature brain cells may help some people resist the symptoms of ...

People who carry the APOE2 version of the apolipoprotein E gene are more likely to live to advanced age and are partly ...

Using microfluidic devices mimicking the crowded spaces in the developing brain, researchers gained novel insights into distinct modes of locomotion found in neurons. In the developing brain, neurons ...

Researchers from Monash University and Osaka University have unveiled a groundbreaking discovery regarding the pivotal role of sensory neurons in orchestrating tissue repair and regeneration, offering ...

A tiny circuit, printed from ink made of atom-thin crystals, just fired electrical pulses that a living brain cell recognized ...

A tiny stack of printed nanomaterials, thinner than a human hair and flexible enough to bend with living tissue, just did ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

In a recent study published in Cell Stem Cell, researchers produced three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted human brain tissues, allowing for the creation of functioning neural networks that could simulate ...

A cellular recycling system called CMA was found to be impaired in ALS motor neurons. Reduced CMA activity was linked to TDP-43 protein clumps, a hallmark of most ALS cases. Boosting CMA may be a ...
