Increased neuron growth in the hippocampus through exercise or genetic approaches helps mice forget strong, maladaptive memories, raising the promise of new PTSD or drug addiction treatments Fukuoka, ...

Nothing is easy to predict, especially not the development of organisms. However, predicting neuron cell growth has just become a little bit easier, thanks to CMU researchers. Jessica Zhang, a ...

Effective axon regeneration is critical for restoring nerve function in patients with axon injury-related neurological diseases, yet adult mammals show limited regenerative capacity in central axonal ...

Researchers have used human tracheal cells to create tiny biological robots that can move on their own and work together to encourage healing in damaged neurons without requiring genetic modifications ...

Brains of older adults with super-healthy cognition grow more new neurons than those of their peers, according to a study from UIC, Northwestern University and the University of Washington.

(Nanowerk News) Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers of the University of Technology in Delft ...

Researchers from Stanford Medicine have found a new way to accelerate the growth of neurons, or nerve cells, according to a study published in Nature on Oct. 2. Neurons are vital to memory, but they ...

Researchers have found a new receptor for nerve growth factor that plays an important role in pain signaling, even though it does not signal on its own, according to a new study. The findings hold ...

A new study using mouse models and multi-omics analysis has traced a specific nerve pathway through which prenatal stress programs fetal skin cells for eczema-like inflammation after birth. The ...
