Type 1 diabetes confers a cardiovascular burden that is often obscured by the young age of affected individuals and by the longstanding focus on microvascular rather than macrovascular complications.
Mitochondria are central regulators of cellular metabolism, redox balance, and cell survival in the nervous system. In recent years, growing evidence has ...
The human brain contains more connections between neurons than there are stars in the Milky Way. Decoding the electrical activity behind all those cells is the massive task that excites neural ...
Cells face constant threats from inside and out. Thus, they’ve evolved sophisticated stress response pathways such as the unfolded protein response (UPR), ...
A team of researchers has shown that noninvasive electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve through the ear can reverse memory deficits caused by acute stress in mice, pinpointing a specific protein ...
Researchers have developed a human intestinal cell model that closely mimics the structure and function of the human gut, enabling more precise prediction of drug-induced gastrointestinal toxicity ...
How calcium affects the nervous system and muscles, its connection to chronic stress, and why it’s important to know when and ...
A conserved glucagon signaling pathway links high-fat diet-induced metabolic imbalance to cardiac arrhythmia through hormone-producing cells and heart-innervating neurons that regulate rhythmicity.
A preclinical study published in Biological Psychiatry has found that repeated low doses of psilocybin and MDMA reshape ...
