Researchers from EPFL have uncovered how diazepam, a common anxiolytic, can increase mitochondrial activity in neural pathways associated with motivation.
A new study could be the first step to developing drugs that targets carbonic anhydrase in mitochondria to help protect against aging and neurodegeneration.
A new probe which allows researchers to quantify folded and misfolded protein levels in a cell could help pave the way for drug treatments for misfolding diseases such as Alzheimer's disease.
A new study reveals astrocytes play an surprisingly important role in the body's circadian clock.
Researchers depression and anxiety alters energy metabolism in the brain.
Researchers take steps to better understand how dynein helps transport cellular cargo into the cell bodies of neurons.
Findings could open new avenues for designing drugs to treat ataxia, researchers report.
Researchers report glia play a critical role in feeding behavior and appetite control.
Researchers have identified a signaling pathway that promotes sensory neuron grown and prevents peripheral neuropathy when blocked.
A new study reports an antidepressant temporarily inhibits the blood-brain barrier, allowing drugs to enter the brain. The findings could have implications for treating neurological diseases from ALS to epilepsy.
A new study reports that contrary behavior of blood vessels in the retrotrapezoid nucleus help keep us breathing.
