Neuron morphology and sub-neuronal patterns offer vital insights into cell typing and the structural organization of brain networks. The community-collaborative BRAIN Initiative Cell Census Network ...

Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by expansion of a polyglutamine tract in the androgen receptor (AR). Here, we show that ...

Figure 1. Diagram showing an electrically active cell in a neuronal culture and the process of recording its transmembrane potential for further analysis Neurons are cells that enable the brain to ...

Cells have surface receptors that couple to proteins and other molecules to initiate or inhibit certain behaviors.

Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative technique to non-invasively measure two key signals, membrane voltage and intracellular calcium levels, at the same time, in neurons of ...

Cells have surface receptors that couple with proteins and other molecules to initiate or inhibit certain behaviors. Typically, the number of these receptors increases as the cell matures, but ...

Migraine drug flunarizine reversed abnormal microRNA patterns in SMA cells and mice, indicating the drug may help protect ...

For more than a decade, neuroscientists had recordings from monkey brains learning to sort visual patterns. They had analyzed the data, published landmark papers, and moved on. Then a computer model ...

In many neurodegenerative diseases, proteins misfold and clump together in brain tissue. Researchers used sugar-coated, peptide-based nanofibers to trap and neutralize misfolded proteins before they ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers of the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands ...

Neuron, Cell Press’s prestigious neuroscience journal, is publishing a special issue on aging research on January 8, 2025. The collection of reviews and perspectives reflects the progress made in ...

For decades, textbooks told students the human brain contained 100 billion neurons. That figure, repeated so often it became ...
