US researchers uncover that certain nerve cells that have the capacity to regrow, are necessary for axon regeneration, providing hope for conditions like blindness and paralysis.
Researchers from South Korea uncover that neurons in the hippocampus play a crucial role in assigning positive value through interactions with others.
Chinese researchers discover a mutation, referred to as the "Shanghai APP" mutation, which has been linked to late-onset Alzheimer's disease and offers fresh insights into the disease's underlying molecular mechanisms.
Researchers from Canada develop a greater understanding about the molecular mechanisms for memory development in early childhood.
US researchers have discovered that rhythmic brain activity organises the neuronal pathways that maintain short-term memories.
Researchers have discovered that oligodendrocyte-lineage cells transfer cell material to neurons in a mouse brain. They have provided the first evidence of coordinated nuclear interaction between these cells and neurons.
Using rodent models, the researchers emphasized the potential of newly generated neurons in adulthood to serve as therapy for addressing the functional deficits and pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease.
According to US researchers, brain maturation follows a sequence that renders youth sensitive to environmental impacts through adolescence.
The researchers found restoring mitochondrial homeostasis in the diseased neurons could protect the optic nerve cells from being damaged from glaucoma.
Researchers say that by looking at individual neurons, they were able to gain a deeper understanding of the integration of transplanted brain organoids.
Japanese scientists analyse the associative synaptic plasticity in the supramammillary nucleus–dentate gyrus pathways.
US researchers will use a unique combination of imaging techniques (MRI and MSI) to study Alzheimer’s disease on a scale that has never been done before.
Danish researchers undertake a new project that aims to find new forms of treatment for diseases such as MS, which breaks down myelin and nerve fibres, by developing new, artificial nerve fibres
US scientists offer a new purpose for the blood pressure drug clonidine as a treatment to reduce the affects of PTSD.
