Researchers developed a way to directly reprogram human glial cells into PV interneurons without passing through a stem‑cell stage.

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain's support cells ...

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can ...

Glial cells, also known as neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells that play a crucial role in various neurophysiological processes. They not only support nervous system structures but also contribute to ...

Parvalbumin cells play a central role in keeping brain activity in equilibrium. They control nervcell signaling, reduce ...

Clearing out “aged” brain cells dramatically reduced seizures and restored memory in a new epilepsy study.

The human brain contains nearly 86 billion neurons, constantly exchanging messages like an immense social media network, but neurons do not work alone – glial cells, neurotransmitters, receptors, and ...

An estimated 86 billion neurons in the average human brain govern our body’s functions and conjure — somehow — the human mind. C. elegans has 302 neurons in one sex and a few more in the other.

A new study suggests temporal lobe epilepsy may be linked to early aging of certain brain cells. When researchers removed these aging cells in mice, seizures dropped, memory improved, and some animals ...

As people grow older, the same brain chemistry that once supported sharp thinking and stable mood can quietly start to work ...

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells ...
