While comparing neurons and transistors is a convenient metaphor (and not completely out of left field), the brain is ...

A new study reveals that neural stem cell grafts can generate new myelin in the central nervous system, offering hope for ...

A study by Cambridge researchers has shed light on how neural stem cell grafts could help restore myelin in the central nervous system. The findings suggest that neural stem cell-based therapies hold ...

Since digital spiking signals can carry rich information and propagate with low computational consumption, spiking neural networks (SNNs) have received great attention from neuroscientists and are ...

Accurate morphological reconstruction of neurons in whole brain images is critical for brain science research. However, due to the wide range of whole brain imaging, uneven staining, and optical ...

The gold-plated sheath has nine sides and measures about 1 foot in length, officials said. It was made in Japan between 550 and 650 and originally used to cover the blade of a long-handled spear.

Acquired inflammatory central nervous system (CNS) disorders include multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), optic ...

To better understand any pathological processes related to Alzheimer's disease that might affect the myelin sheath, Yale researchers analyzed proteins in human brain tissue, focusing on the sub ...

The second type of axoglial interaction results from the apposition of two adjacent paranodes during development. 7 As internodes elongate during development, the paranodes act as fence, preventing ...

MS is characterized by chronic inflammation and demyelination within the central nervous system. Demyelination occurs when the protective myelin sheath surrounding nerve fibers in the brain and spinal ...
