Alzheimer's disease is driven by a buildup of a toxic protein called Tau that kills neurons. As toxic Tau spreads to new ...
How does a single cell build a brain with billions of precisely organized neurons? Researchers suggest that brain cells use ...
Scientists reprogram brain immune cells to fight Alzheimer's: Study ...
Advances in stem cell biology and tissue engineering have enabled the generation of brain organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), providing powerful platforms to model human ...
A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...
The cytoskeleton gives cells their shape and helps them move. Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and Ludwig Maximilian ...
Despite the widespread use of biophysical models in diffusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (dMRI) to infer cellular-scale structure, gray matter (GM) remains poorly understood due to a lack of ...
A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...
A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...
The blood-brain barrier protects the central nervous system by tightly regulating what crosses between the two compartments. Neurons are vulnerable if the barrier suffers damage or weakens with age, ...
The prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is roughly one in 36 people, with a male-to-female ratio of 4:1. The disorder is known to be influenced by multiple factors, both genetic (gene ...
Hundreds of genes have been linked to autism, yet the precise molecular and cellular mechanisms behind it remain largely unclear. A new study published in Nature, led by Gaia Novarino at the Institute ...
