A brain protein that helps neurons talk may be helping Alzheimer’s spread, Utah scientists found
A protein that neurons rely on to share genetic messages with each other also packages and spreads toxic tau, the misfolded ...
As animals experience new things, the connections between neurons, called synapses, strengthen or weaken in response to events and the activity they cause in the brain. Neuroscientists believe that ...
The human brain is known to store various memories for long periods of time, progressively learning from new experiences and forming adaptive representations that ultimately guide decision-making and ...
Cognitive tasks, such as learning and memory, require rapid changes to proteins at synapses, such as protein synthesis, degradation, and trafficking. How protein post-translational modifications ...
New research on the hippocampus, a brain area essential for memory, suggests that new rules of synaptic plasticity best explain how brain activity continually reshapes the way memories are recorded in ...
Voluntary alcohol consumption altered corticostriatal plasticity in rats, which may contribute to alcohol use disorder. Read ...
Cognitive decline associated with aging is caused by the loss of cholinergic nerve supply to the hippocampus of our brain. Since the hippocampus is the center of learning and memory, a reduction in ...
Summary: Researchers compiled emerging evidence to prove that astrocytes, traditionally dismissed as passive, structural ...
Researchers used PET imaging to track synaptic markers in sleep-deprived adults. They found increased neural connection ...
