Putting your weight into opening a door (say, with your shoulder) is easier than using your hands. Sliding heavy cardboard ...

Glial cells support neurological structures, function, cognition, behaviours, physical skills, and motor coordination.

Stress doesn’t just affect your mind, it disrupts your gut too, triggering bloating, inflammation, and digestive issues through the gut-brain connection.

The Swedish Brain Foundation (Hjärnfonden) is making its largest donation to date to Swedish brain research. This year, SEK ...

Discover how Parkinson's disease begins in the gut, not the brain. Learn the early digestive warning signs that appear years before motor symptoms.

Using enteric neurons differentiated from neurospheres in vitro, we show that enteric axon growth is not inhibited by Shh. Rather, when Shh is presented as a point source, enteric axons turn away from ...

Figure 5 Control and malformed fetuses. The motor neurons were studied by using the ratio number of motor plates / muscular area and enteric neurons considering the number of points visualized per ...

A research team has demonstrated how the energy levels of individual neurons in the brain change during so-called spreading depolarizations -- waves of activity that occur in various brain ...

Moreover, specific mouse IBD models have distinct signatures for B-cell, T-cell and enteric neurons. We discover that transcriptomic relatedness of models is a function of the mode of induction, not ...
