Cambridge scientists have grown miniature circuits in the lab that mimic how the brain and spinal cord connect up, which underlies our movements. They used this model to show how damage to these ...
Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand different types of nerve cell in the human brain according to the latest ...

A progenitor-derived corticospinal-like neuron in cell culture, extending its long axon, even in isolation. The cell body (or "soma"; immunolabeled by Tuj1 antibody in red) is at the top, with the ...
Rugby league player Jai Arrow's recently announced diagnosis of motor neuron disease has again brought this devastating ...
All cells, whether big or small, short or long, rely on proteins to function properly. In most cells, transporting these ...
Researchers at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute for Physiology, working in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University, have achieved an important breakthrough in brain research. The ...
Vitamin K is best known for helping blood clot. Without enough of it, even a small cut can become dangerous. The vitamin also ...
DNA damage from inflammation outpaces the cells’ ability to self-repair. The finding, in human brain cells and mice, could ...
