A new study reports mossy cells in the dentate gyrus help control neurogenesis and may play a role in common brain disorders.
A new study reveals maternal diet during pregnancy can have dramatic implications for fetal brain development and can impact short term memory in adults.
Researchers report distant molecular mechanisms can generate the same features in different neurons. The findings shed new light on how brain cells develop.
A new study challenges conventional belief that myelin can inhibit neuronal growth. Researchers report rat myelin stimulated axon outgrowths in neural precursor cells, and human iPSCs.
Weight bearing leg exercises send signals to the brain which are vital for the production of healthy neural cells, researchers report.
Researchers report ependymal cells may play an important role in the regulation of neural stem cell function.
Researchers have identified a new type of stem cell which may aid neural repair following injury or disease.
Researchers have observed how neural stem cells divide and new neurons are integrated into the hippocampus.
A new study reveals exposure to androgens during brain development can alter genes linked to autism in males.
UCSF researchers report neural stem cells only have a very limited capacity to replenish brain tissue.
UCSD researchers have successfully created a human stem cell based model of AGS, a rare, inherited autoimmune disorder.
A new study reveals the role two Pumilio genes, PUM1, and PUM2, play in the creation of new neurons in the dentate gyrus.
