A collaborative research paper uncovers a novel mechanism of altered information processing between neurons.
The deletion of the autism-associated Tbx1 gene results in slower cognitive processing and decreased myelin in mouse models.
A new model of Alzheimer's progression highlights the link between glial cells, toxic protein buildup, and neurodegeneration.
Researchers have identified a key instigator of neural damage in people with ALS.
Dysregulation of Zfp36l1 causes neural lineage progenitor cells to grow rapidly, taking on the properties of fast growing stem cells as they become cancerous.
Brain dysfunction noted in schizophrenia patients may be a result of impaired expression of a protein complex associated with protein synthesis, researchers report.
A new study reports astrocytes may be a driving force behind a number of neurodegenerative diseases.
RIKEN researchers discover deprivation of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids during pregnancy can alter gene expression, increasing the risk of schizophrenia in the offspring.
A new study shows how reciprocal communication between different brain cells contributes to neuronal integrity.
