This explainer outlines how neurons and glial cells coordinate electrical and chemical signals to form complex brain networks ...

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 ...

Understanding ALPL and its ability to mediate transport across the blood-brain barrier has been foundational to the evolution of our gene therapy programs, two of which are advancing towards IND ...

Homeostasis is the ability of living organisms to maintain stable internal conditions, such as temperature, hydration and ...

non-neuronal cells in our central nervous system that help support, feed, and protect neurons. Importantly, the ways in which glial cells work have a lot to do with what happens in AD patients.

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have discovered that impaired glucose metabolism in glial cells, a type of cell in our nervous system, plays a key role in the degeneration caused by ...

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 ...
