Researchers find definitive brain alterations in veterans with GWI, caused as the result of exposure to neurotoxic chemicals during the first Gulf War. The study confirms working memory is affected in those with GWI.
Researchers have identified a new active botulinum neurotoxin. The discovery could lead to the development of new protein therapeutics.
Researchers report a new compound could help prevent and may even reverse some of the brain injury caused by the Tau protein in dementia.
According to researchers, the baby teeth of children with autism contain higher concentrations of toxic lead, and less manganese and zinc that children who are not on the spectrum.
Researchers report they have discovered tiny magnetic nanoparticles from air pollution lodged in the human brain. They believe these nanoparticles could contribute to some cases of Alzheimer's.
Chronic exposure to the environmental toxin BMAA may increase the risk for developing neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and ALS.
Mutations in beta4 proteins could have a surprisingly large effect on health, researchers claim.
A new method of growing neural networks from stem cells is capable of detecting the activity of Clostridium botulinum neurotoxins and could help to minimize animal research.
According to researchers, a new antibody therapy can help treat TBI and prevent the associated development of Alzheimer's disease and CTE.
Researchers are working to develop a faster and more affordable way to screen for neural toxins.
Researchers have developed a panel of blood markers that may diagnose Gulf War illness with 90 percent accuracy.
Researchers report many PV defects could have their origin, not during adult life, but instead in the SST templates that set circuit parameters in the first place.
