Inhibitory neurons act as a brake on brain tumor growth
Brain tumors do not grow in isolation. They develop within the highly active environment of the brain, where…
Maternal illness may reshape fetal brain development through epigenetics
Neurodevelopmental conditions, which include autism spectrum disorders, ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder), and more, impact around ten percent of the…
Neuroplex pipeline monitors nine neuronal populations in moving mice
Scientists at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience (MPFI), in collaboration with ZEISS and MetaCell, have developed…
Unmasking the hyperactive circuitry of early Alzheimer’s
Neuroscientists at King’s College London have pinpointed a mechanism behind the increased neural connectivity observed in the very early stages of Alzheimer’s…
Study identifies PPP2R5C blood marker that may detect Alzheimer’s disease earlier
Researchers report that declining PPP2R5C levels in blood may signal early Alzheimer’s pathology, offering new insight into tau…
Neuron lattice structure may guard against neurodegeneration
Brain cells are constantly swallowing material from the fluid that surrounds them – signaling molecules, nutrients, even pieces of their own surfaces – in a process…
Estrogen levels in the brain may play a role in women’s risk of stress-related memory problems
Experiencing multiple acute stresses at the same time, as in natural disasters or mass shootings, can leave lasting…
Hippocampus reorganizes memories to anticipate future outcomes, study finds
A preclinical study published in Nature has found evidence that the hippocampus, the brain region that stores memory, also reorganizes…
Engineered sensor reveals the brain’s hidden chemical conversations
Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to…
Scientists uncover 53 genetic clues that shape math ability beyond IQ
An exciting new study reveals the hidden genetic architecture of quantitative ability, showing how brain wiring and signaling…
High-salt diet linked to brain inflammation that raises blood pressure
A new study finds that a high-salt diet triggers brain inflammation that drives up blood pressure. The research, led…
