AskBio's approach meanwhile will involve using an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector to deliver a gene for human glial cell line ... on dopaminergic neurons, as well as motor and non-motor ...

However, it has so far not been known how local changes in ion concentration affect individual neurons and glial cells. Previous attempts to change the extracellular milieu have primarily involved ...

The increasing implication of glial cells in neurodegenerative diseases makes them an appealing addition to iPSC-based model systems for investigating disease mechanisms. Over the last decade, Dr.

Pediatric gliomas are also known as childhood gliomas. They’re a type of tumor that can develop in a child’s central nervous system (CNS), including their brain or spinal cord. Gliomas are ...

Motor neuron disease (MND) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with high morbidity and mortality. With global aging, the burden of MND is expected to increase, particularly in ...

The scope of the presented studies is somewhat limited, as they primarily focus on evaluating the phenotypic changes in cardiac innervation following the loss of various Slit or Robo genes.

As motor abnormalities ... cell death (apoptosis). Patients and methods: Surgical specimens from 26 severely constipated patients were assessed by conventional and immunohistochemical methods.

The human brain consists of about 85 to 100 billion neurons. It also has roughly the same amount of brain cells that support neuron function with, for example, nutrition, oxygen and healing. These ...
