Excitatory (E) and inhibitory (I) neurons are known to work ... Unlike previous models, which missed a precise balance between signals that excite and those that inhibit brain activity, their ...

There are two main types of neurons: excitatory neurons, which transmit information by amplifying neural signals, and inhibitory neurons, which can suppress the signals. Together, excitation and ...

New research suggests the brain uses a learning rule at inhibitory synapses to block out distractions during memory replay.

The funds will support Phase 2 testing of a drug the company believes to be able to safety home in on AMPA receptors, an ...

This important study investigates frequency-dependent effects of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) on bladder function in healthy humans and, through a computational model, shows that low ...

A dynamic DNA methylation 'barcode' on the X chromosome can distinguish thousands of individual adult male neurons and may record aspects of their development.

Inhibitory cells in the brain play a key role in memory and may help explain Alzheimer’s disease, new research finds.

Scientists have uncovered how serotonergic neurons in larval zebrafish process visual information tied to movement to determine when and how much serotonin to release.

Most research focuses on excitatory neurons in spatial learning ... Specifically, the team looked at the role of inhibitory neurons called parvalbumin interneurons, or PVs, in the hippocampus ...
