A novel probe for fMRI traces connections between neurons, helping researchers map brain circuits that underlie behavior and perception.
A new clinical trial is enrolling patients with severe COVID-19 symptoms to assess the effect of nitric oxide in treating the virus. Previous research found nitric oxide has antiviral properties against coronaviruses. The effect was tested and demonstrated during the SARS outbreak in the early 2000s.
Results show the blood-pressure-lowering effects of exercise were diminished by more than 60% over the first hour of recovery, and completely absent two hours post-exercise in those who used antibacterial mouthwash.
For those who find it difficult to exercise, taking a hot bath can help improve inflammation and glucose levels, a new study reports.
Researchers reveal the role nucleus gigantocellularis neurons play in generalized arousal and cognition.
Researchers report applying ultrasound to the whole brain improves cognitive dysfunction in mouse models of dementia. A clinical trial is currently underway to test the effectiveness in humans with the neurodegenerative disease.
Researchers report nitric oxide plays a key role in regulating neural function. The findings shed new light on how neurodegeneration may occur.
Researchers have identified a link between reduced arginine levels and major depressive disorder.
A new study reports supamammillary glutamate neurons in the caudal hypothalamus play a critical role in wakefulness.
Researchers reveal the mechanism behind leprosy's destructive effect on the body and note the disease may share common characteristics with multiple sclerosis.
Researchers say drinking beetroot juice prior to exercise can help the aging brain to perform more efficiently.
Researchers discovered migraine sufferers harbor significantly more microbes with the ability to modify nitrates than those who do not suffer migraine headaches.
