Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections, and as a result, in signal ...

Nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord are wrapped in an insulating sheath known as myelin. For a long time, this barrier, ...

Oligodendrocytes with different morphological features work together to support precise binaural integration for sound localization in the chick brainstem auditory circuit.

Researchers found that inhibiting GSK-3 led to less defects in the axonal transport process and less neuronal cell death, while inhibiting ERK1 led to more transport problems and more cell death. A ...

Closely related dopamine-releasing neurons in the olfactory bulb behave in fundamentally different ways depending on their physical structure.

Apart from respiratory symptoms, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causal agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, causes neurological symptoms, ...

A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs ...

Axons are the brain’s information highways, transporting cellular cargo, chemical signals, and electrical impulses to other cells. These “roads” are typically depicted as smooth and cylindrical, with ...
