Synaptic changes in the brains of patients with frontotemporal dementia can be modeled in the laboratory
Neurons produced from frontotemporal dementia patients' skin biopsies using modern stem cell technology recapitulate the synaptic loss and dysfunction detected in the patients' brains, a new study ...
Neurons communicate with each other by passing millisecond-long signals across tiny junctions called synapses. Experiences cause the strength of these connections to change—a process called synaptic ...
Astrocytes use the MEGF10 receptor to prune synapses in the striatum, a process essential for dopamine-driven motor learning.
In a rat model of chronic heart failure, Xijiaqi Formula improved cardiac indices and rescued learning/memory deficits while ...
Some scientists believe that toxic tau fibrils hop between synapses to spread throughout the brain, prompted by Aβ aggregates and overactive neurons. New imaging and biomarker data add weight to this ...
Learning programs the brain. It is nature’s way to create simultaneously both “hardware” and “software” for the brain. Neuroscientists have long known that learning experiences change the functional ...
