Researchers at University of Tsukuba have identified a previously uncharacterized neural circuit that directly links ...
Discover the first images of cytonemes during mammalian neural development, serving as express routes to establish morphogen gradients and tissue patterning. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital ...
Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new level of detail in the ...
The brain of humans and other animals is known to contribute to the protection of the body from infections. Past studies have ...
Neural circuits associated with three cortical regions in cognitive generalization with different manifestations from different species. (A) Emotionrelated brain regions mainly project to PFC and OFC; ...
Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...
Because unpleasant withdrawal symptoms fuel nicotine addiction’s high relapse rate, targeting their underlying mechanisms with treatments may promote continued abstinence from the drug. In a new ...
For decades, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have been diagnosed from the outside in, through behavior, mood, and memory ...
Every year, about 11 percent of Americans experience the heart-pounding, nauseating sensations of intense fear that characterize a panic attack. 1 While some treatments for panic disorder exist, ...
