The brain is the body's command center, and neurons are the workhorses that carry out its commands. They transmit signals ...
The brain contains many cell types, from the prominent neurons to the lesser-known microglia. The latter are integral to the brain's immune system and play a crucial role as the brain's cleanup crew.
A new Yale study has revealed that neurons — the energy-hungry cells that connect and direct activity in the brain — are equipped with “backup batteries” that kick in to keep the brain running during ...
TalTech scientists in collaboration with researchers from Rockefeller University have described a mechanism that acts like a ...
Precise intracellular transport is essential for neuronal function, yet the exact mechanism of selective cargo delivery by ...
New research suggests that tubulin may help prevent the toxic protein clumps associated with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.
A clearance mechanism involving microglia has been known to relieve neurons of toxic protein aggregates such as those associated with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Unfortunately, this ...
