Oct. 19, 2021 Researchers have discovered that an FDA-approved drug acts on support cells in the central nervous system to encourage sensory neurons to regrow after ...
Mar. 23, 2022 New research has discovered how the enteric nervous system -- or 'second brain' -- can communicate with both the brain and spinal cord, which up until now had remained a major mystery. The ...
Jan. 21, 2021 Scientists have for the first time established a sensory neuron model able to mass-reproduce two key sensory neuron types involved in pain sensation, enabling the easy generation of large numbers of ...
July 13, 2023 Study suggests modulating the activity of certain neurons could be an effective approach to restoring circuit ...
Sep. 20, 2022 A research group has found that sensory neurons play an important role in human skin pigmentation and physiology. Specifically, the neurons secrete a protein known as Repulsive Guidance Molecule B ...
Dec. 8, 2020 Injury or disease that afflicts a relatively small number of brain cells causes a chain reaction that stops activity across a vast network of neural circuits, according to new research. The study may ...
Jan. 21, 2021 Electrical trigger sites in neurons surprisingly change with experience; they are either becoming smaller with increasing number of experiences and, vice versa, they grow larger when less input ...
Oct. 27, 2023 Researchers have discovered a hidden mechanism within hair follicles that allow us to feel ...
Apr. 22, 2021 Spinal cord nerve cells branching through the body resemble trees with limbs fanning out in every direction. But this image can also be used to tell the story of how these neurons, their jobs ...
Aug. 3, 2023 Scientists define five types of colon neurons specialized for sending different signals to the ...
