John Hopkins researchers have uncovered new details that may explain, on a molecular level, how ECT relieves severe depression in mammals.
Researchers report a gene associated with autism can cause excessive dendritic pruning during development.
Emory researchers report a drug approved in Japan for stroke, can help to stimulate neural pruning and help reduce habit driven behaviors in mice.
LUM researchers shed light on how an RNA binding protein is involved in learning and memory.
According to researchers, the size, shape and number of dendritic spines in the brain may determine whether a person develops Alzheimer's disease.
A new study reveals molecular details of what happens when axons are damaged or completely severed.
A new study reveals psychedelic substances may have a neuroprotective role when it comes to inflammation. Researchers also report psychedelics can alter signaling pathways associated with neuroplasticity.
A Nature Communications study reveals the activity of dendrites increase as we sleep. This increased activity could be key to how we are able to form memories.
Researchers from Max Planck Institute have identified a neural connectivity pattern in the medial entorhinal cortex that appears to assist with navigation.
According to a PNAS study, the RNAs of tick borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) are transported from the cell body to dendrites. The viral RNAs then reproduce the viruses within the dendrites, disturbing neural activity.
Researchers discover lysosomes can travel to dendrites and also be recruited by dendritic spines.
Researchers shed light on how the eyes compute the direction of moving light.
