Human Neural Stem Cells Reverse Rat Stroke Brain Damage

Neuroscience NewsSeptember 15, 2010

Neuralstem has released a new report detailing positive results for stem cell treatments. Initial findings show that not only do implanted human spinal cord-derived stem cells survive, but also differentiate into neurons in rats brains affected by strokes. This finding could potentially provide new therapies for treating strokes.... Read More...

New Molecular Pathway Underlying Parkinson’s Disease Identified

Neuroscience NewsSeptember 13, 2010

Neuroscience researchers have identified a new molecular pathway underlying Parkinson's disease. The pathway involves polyamines, which were discovered to be responsible for increased build-up of other toxic proteins in neurons. The research also suggests polyamine lowering drugs could have a protective effect from Parkinson's disease. ... Read More...

Investigating Axon Clusters Could Help Develop “Brain Atlas”

Neuroscience NewsSeptember 7, 2010

Neuroscience researchers are investigating axon clusters in order to develop a "brain atlas". The research could provide a way for clinicians to recognize groups of abnormal axon clusters. When systematically arranged into the "brain atlas", abnormal axon clusters could be used as bio-markers to diagnose neurological disorders.... Read More...

Brain Enters And Leaves States Of Induced Unconsciousness Via Different Processes

Neuroscience NewsAugust 30, 2010

Researchers have discovered the brain enters and leaves states of anesthetic-induced unconsciousness through different processes. The study suggests both forward and reverse paths through which induced unconsciousness dissipates and arrives are not identical. Noted was a delay in returning to a state of consciousness even after levels of anesthetic diminish.... Read More...
