Most neuroscience research carried out up to date has primarily focused on neurons, the most renowned type of cell in the ...

Cut off any part of this worm's body and it will regrow. This is the spectacular yet mysterious regenerative ability of ...

Here, we highlight the complex molecular signaling that takes place in neurons, glial cells and the blood-brain barrier following ischemic insult. We also describe the evidence of TRPM2 ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered a novel mechanism involved in brain development. They found that small ...

A new study published in Advanced Science has revealed how curcumin, a bioactive compound found in Curcuma aromatica (Yujin), ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have discovered a novel mechanism involved in brain development. They found that small fragments called micronuclei produced by neuronal nuclei are released into ...

Meet suzetrigine, a non-opioid that promises to avoid addiction risk. But some experts say it can't replace opioids ...

This dissertation focuses on the glial protein GFAP and Alexander disease, a severe neurological disorder primarily affecting young children. Mutations in the GFAP gene disrupt astrocyte function, ...

New research on nematodes reveals how glial cells maintain and monitor neuronal dendrites. Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy ...

She had no symptoms, and it was only when an optician noticed some inflammation that there was any warning she had a brain ...

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 ...
