Researchers discover a form of CD33, which lacked a critical functional domain, correlates with a reduced risk of Alzheimer's disease.
New technology can rapidly halt or start the expression of genes by shining a light on the cells.
Researchers find a single gene which encodes two separate proteins from the same sequence of messenger RNA. The finding could provide new strategies for treating SCA6.
Researchers engineered microscopic probes which light up synapses in living neurons by attaching fluorescent markers onto synaptic proteins without affecting the neuron's ability to function.
Researchers discover memory improved in mice after injecting them with a small, drug like molecule while studying how cells respond to biological stress.
New research points to molecules which help axons to branch and grow. The study could assist in finding new treatments for nerve regeneration after injury.
