Harnessing the power of "dancing molecules", researchers have developed a new injectable therapy that repairs tissue damage and reverses paralysis in mouse models. Within four weeks of receiving the injection, paralyzed mice regained the ability to walk.
High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) activates MAP2K signaling and enhanced axon regeneration and functional recovery following spinal cord injury.
Researchers report Rolofylline could help alleviate learning and memory problems associated with aggregating Tau proteins.
Researchers provide a comprehensive map of transport in mammalian axons.
According to a new study to be published in eNeuro, amphetamine use may disrupt the development of the orbital prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain associated with decision making.
A new study sheds light onto the role astrocytes play in neurodevelopment.
Glial cells not only control the speed of nerve conduction, but they also influence the precision of signal transduction.
Researchers have identified subpopulations of neurons in the spinal cord that help coordinate the movement of the arms and legs to ensure a stable body posture during locomotion.
Researchers have identified a thick band of microtubules within retinal neurons which help provide the energy required for visual processing.
Epothilone, a cancer drug, appears to be effective in reducing scar tissue formation in spinal cord injuries and stimulating neuroregeneration, a new study reports.
A new study reports glial cells use lipids to direct neuron organization in the spinal cord.
Researchers have identified a protein that helps direct axon growth.
