To better model how neurons fire and interact with glia, some scientists place the cells into a brain or grow them in an organoid. Others have produced little spheres of human neural tissue by ...
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a highly debilitating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of memory and decline of mental functions. Earlier research has uncovered some of the ...
Researchers at the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have uncovered a two-step mechanism by which the brain regulates blood volume—a breakthrough ...
In a new study published in Neuron titled “CLU alleviates Alzheimer’s disease-relevant processes by modulating astrocyte reactivity and microglia-dependent synaptic density,” researchers from Mass ...
Recently approved Alzheimer’s drugs offer a step forward for treating the disease, but new therapeutic strategies are needed to complement them and provide personalized therapeutic approaches. Mass ...
A Cedars-Sinai study has identified a previously unknown role for astrocyte cells in how the brain responds to damage and ...
This article is based on a poster originally authored by Malika Bsibsi, A. Popalzij, Matteo Zanella, Lieke Geerts, Mark Musters, Inês Ferreira, Stefan Kostense, David F. Fischer and Marijn Vlaming, ...
Cells feature an array of biological cascades to respond to stressors such as protein aggregates, viruses, and DNA damage. When these pathways are activated too much or for too long, things can go ...
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a mental health condition that negatively affects the mood of a person and causes a loss of interest in activities that were previously associated with happiness. In ...
