A newly identified protein may hold the key to rejuvenating aging brain cells. Researchers found that boosting DMTF1 can restore the ability of neural stem cells to regenerate, even when age-related ...
Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the ...
Our brain’s memory center bears a sleek design. A peek into living tissue from human hippocampi, a brain region crucial for memory and learning, revealed relatively few cell-to-cell connections for ...
An international research team has uncovered new insights into healthy brain aging. The researchers found that aging leads to ...
Scientists from Norwich Medical School have conducted a study examining the potential cognitive benefits of cranberries in ...
A new study from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Professor Nicholas Tonks, graduate student Yuxin Cen, and postdoctoral fellow ...
Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new information ...
However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...
For decades, dogma dictated that the immune system consisted of two separate branches. Cells of the innate system respond rapidly to molecular patterns shared by a broad array of pathogens. Meanwhile, ...
