Aug. 16, 2023 The Noelin family of secreted proteins bind to the external portion of AMPA glutamate receptors and stabilize them on the neuronal cellular membrane, a process necessary for transmission of ...
July 6, 2021 Research in mice reveals how a subset of highly specialized immune cells modulate brain wiring by precision-targeting inhibitory synapses. The work deepens understanding of the versatile repertoire ...
June 29, 2021 Researchers have shown how RNA-binding proteins modulate synaptic responses that mediate the transmission of nerve cell ...
Feb. 29, 2024 Neuroscientists say they have found a new function for the SYNGAP1 gene, a DNA sequence that controls memory and learning in mammals, including mice and ...
Dec. 20, 2021 To solve the mysteries of how learning and memory occur, scientists have created a system to track millions of connections among brain cells in mice -- all at the same time -- when the animals' ...
Sep. 1, 2022 Scientists have discovered a new kind of synapse in the tiny hairs on the surface of neurons. The commonly overlooked protrusions called primary cilia contain special junctions that act as a shortcut ...
Dec. 20, 2021 A new theory of consciousness provides experimental access to the study of this phenomenon. Not just in ...
May 20, 2022 Researchers have reported a nano-sized neuromorphic memory device that emulates neurons and synapses simultaneously in a unit cell, another step toward completing the goal of neuromorphic computing ...
Oct. 1, 2021 Researchers have made a surprising discovery about the human gut's enteric nervous system that itself is filled with surprising facts. For starters, there's the fact that this 'second ...
Nov. 5, 2021 A team of researchers has now demonstrated the existence of an internal diffusion barrier in the brain of fruit flies - in addition to the already known blood-brain ...
