Scientists Find New Trigger For Nerve Cell Death
October 4, 1997 — A paper in the Oct. 3 issue of Science challenges a well-established idea about why nerve cells self-destruct when the brain or spinal cord is injured or becomes diseased. It suggests that when ... > full story -
Epilepsy Research Advance Reported At Jackson Laboratory
October 4, 1997 — Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory have identified the gene that is defective in a new mouse model known as "slow-wave epilepsy," or swe. This is the first genetic model to exhibit both ... > full story -
New Advance May Aid Alzheimer's: Early Study Shows Protein Shares Link With Disease And Reverses Memory Deficits In Mice
October 3, 1997 — For the first time, scientists have shown through genetic studies in adult mice that depletion of the protein nerve growth factor (NGF) causes a decline in learning and memory, mimicking a major ... > full story -
