Cut off any part of this worm's body and it will regrow. This is the spectacular yet mysterious regenerative ability of ...

The first are primarily involved in creating the blood-brain barrier and regulating nerve synapses ... disease but also on modulating glial-neuron interactions for such indications as neuropathic ...

Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy lifting in the nervous system, it's the glia that provide nutrients, clean up waste, and ...

Each neuron receives signals from both excitatory and inhibitory synapses. The interconnections ... Other Brain Cells (Glia) Although neurons are considered the basic units of the brain and ...

The preliminary data presented in this manuscript seem valuable. The data are currently incomplete and there are numerous technical concerns, some of which may arise from insufficient description of ...

One gene, GSK3β, weakens neuron defenses against oxidative stress. ApoE4 astrocytes cause hyperactivity and oxidative stress in neurons. This isn’t the first 3D model system involving hiPSC-derived ...

Glia (light green) respond to the loss of dendrite ... by which these crucial supporting players detect and respond to neuron damage. Published in Nature Communications, the study describes ...

Here, we highlight the complex molecular signaling that takes place in neurons, glial cells and the blood-brain barrier following ischemic insult. We also describe the evidence of TRPM2 ...

Anti-brain aging to increase healthy lifespan: Our long-term goal is to identify molecular and cellular mechanisms that contribute to brain aging, including glia-neuron interactions, systemic ...
