Uniting structure and function of synapses is challenging: Function is studied in living tissue, measuring electrical signals at millisecond precision with electrophysiology, while the observation of ...
Late-life depression is a major risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, in particular because it accelerates progression from mild cognitive impairment to dementia. How this happens remains largely ...
New research from Oregon Health & Science University for the first time reveals the function of a little-understood junction between cells in the brain that could have important treatment implications ...
New research from Colorado State University into the ways neurons regulate chemical balance in the brain could provide valuable insights toward developing therapies for disorders such as epilepsy.
The death of synapses, and the neurons that need them, marks the inevitable endgame of Alzheimer’s disease. Despite this eventual synaptic mayhem, a new work, led by Thomas Südhof and Marius Wernig at ...
STRASBOURG, France, July 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The International Human Frontier Science Program Organization (HFSPO) is pleased to award the 2026 HFSP Nakasone Award to Erin Schuman for her ...
Neuroscientists studied the connection, or synapse, that connects neurons to non-neuronal cells known as oligodendrocyte precursor cells, or OPCs. OPCs can develop into oligodendrocytes, which form a ...
