Researchers have defined a new genetic disease caused by a mutation in the IVNS1ABP gene. The condition marks a rare ...

Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Experts across many fields recognise that it’s important for our health and happiness to excavate and reshape our subconscious to ...

Researchers have used gene therapy to partially reprogram the brain cells that store memories in aging mice, reversing signs of cellular decline and restoring learning ability. The technique, ...

As cell therapy advances toward clinical reality, iPSC-derived cellular products, in vivo reprogramming strategies, and ...

One reason that chronic pain, mental or physical is consistently solvable is the brain’s property of neuroplasticity. Your brain physically constantly changes based on the nature of the sensory input.

Scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute and an international team of collaborators have defined a ...

A mechanism underlying neutrophil reprogramming in brain cancers has been uncovered, illuminating potential therapeutic targets to stop their pro-cancer effect. Tumor-infiltrating neutrophils are ...

When a neuron ages, it loses synaptic connections with other neurons, it is less able to transmit nerve impulses, and its metabolism is also altered. This process of neuronal ageing — inevitable with ...

The lab of Filippo Veglia, Ph.D., at The Wistar Institute has discovered a previously unknown mechanism for how aggressive brain cancers reprogram immune system cells from fighting cancer to enabling ...
