A research team led by investigators at McMaster University has identified an axonal guidance signaling pathway that cancer cells use to infiltrate the brain. The combined results of preclinical in ...

Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered a molecular switch in neurons that limits the ...

A cross-sectional image of the mouse cerebral cortex in enlargement. The same method was applied as in the ferret. The cerebral cortex is shown in blue and some neurons are dyed green with GFP. In ...

Neurotrophins are essential proteins that support the growth, survival, and differentiation of neurons. Among these, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a crucial role in neuronal signaling ...

A major discovery reveals that metformin works not just in the body, but in the brain. By switching off a key protein and activating specific neurons, the drug lowers blood sugar through a previously ...

Researchers have built an AI-powered model that traces how the brain’s electrical rhythms and physical wiring change together ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A hallmark of Parkinson’s disease is the buildup of Lewy bodies — misfolded clumps of the protein known as alpha-synuclein. Long before Lewy bodies form, alpha-synuclein can interfere ...
