Every day, our brain makes thousands of decisions, big and small. Any of these decisions—from the least consequential, such ...

This work presents a membrane-targeted azobenzene (MT) as light-responsive tool for cell stimulation. MT photoisomerization ...

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

When these cells were held at the same subthreshold potential, this difference in excitability between LH and ZI cells persisted, whereas MH cells became as excitable as LH cells. AP properties were ...

EA CEO is excited for Nintendo Switch 2, new console means potential benefits for many video game companies including EA, reaching new audiences. Industry leaders, including former PlayStation ...

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 ...

Furthermore, we observed increased action potential firing activities in basolateral amygdala (BLA) pyramidal neurons of GF mice. Interestingly, these neuronal changes were reversed by either ...

Our model faithfully characterizes the slow modulation of local field potential fluctuations depending on ion ... This biophysical interaction and ion-exchange mechanism across the membrane of a ...

Dynamic changes in the structural characteristics of the postsynaptic membrane and, in particular, of dendritic spines have been a topic of great interest over the last decade (reviewed in refs.

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 ...
