Neuropsychiatric disorders are becoming increasingly prevalent. Given their complex and multifactorial pathogenesis, there is ...

This study identifies 47,350 enhancers active in human neurons during differentiation and links some to genes involved in ...

A study of nematodes by researchers at Nagoya University in Japan has found that aging-related decline in brain function is caused by the excessive activation of certain neurons over time, rather than ...

The increasing interest in bioactive peptides (BPs) for their potential in disease control and health promotion has been accompanied by a lack of scalable processes for their purification, hindering ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Abstract: The brain-inspired Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) work in an event-driven manner and have an implicit recurrence in neuronal membrane potential to memorize information over time, which are ...

In this tech age optimum brain health is more important than ever. But as we age we all have to face the grim reality of ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Pain is an example of an important sensory neuron. When you feel pain from a hot pan or a sharp ... It has been linked to depression and potential antidepressant treatments. In some cases, healthy ...

Mitochondria are critical for cellular homeostasis, regulating bioenergetics, redox balance, Ca2+ signaling, and cell death. Mitochondrial Ca2+ ...

(A) in a parallel target neuron when an AP is propagating in the source ... Traces denote the target membrane potential next to the point of axon termination. The initial hyperpolarization effect may ...

The pleura (plural: pleurae) is a two-layered membrane that covers the lung. Between the layers is a small amount of lubricating fluid, known as pleural fluid, which helps cushion the lung and reduce ...
