Object recognition software is used by law enforcement to help identify suspects, by self-driving cars to navigate roadways and by many consumers to unlock their cell phones or pay for their morning ...
Dependence is a hallmark of alcohol use disorder characterized by excessive alcohol intake and withdrawal symptoms. The central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) is a key brain structure underlying the ...
Scientists have engineered a nanowire platform that mimics brain tissue to study astrocytes, the star-shaped cells critical for brain health, for the first time in their natural state. Astrocytes are ...
Environmental lead (Pb) exposure has been implicated in the development of depression. Here we show that Pb induces depression-like behaviour in mice by triggering ferroptosis. Single-cell RNA ...
Correction: The original version of this article misquoted Baljit Khakh as saying that with the genetic data of astrocytes in human brains afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease the same genes associated ...
Neuroplasticity – the ability of neurons to change their structure and function in response to experiences – can be turned off and on by the cells that surround neurons in the brain, according to a ...
Researchers report that neuronal activity is necessary and sufficient for astrocytes to develop their complex shape, and interrupting this developmental process results in disrupted brain function.
