Saving energy is 'in', even neurons are joining in
As with all cells, neuronal functions are subject to strict energy constraints, which are particularly pronounced in the brain due to its high energy requirements. The research team was able to ...
Reawakening Dormant Nerve Cells: Groundbreaking Neurotechnology Restores Motor Function in SMA
A new electrical stimulation therapy for spinal muscle atrophy (SMA) has shown promise in reactivating motor neurons and ...
Spinal cord stimulation restores neural function, targets key feature of progressive neurodegenerative disease

Researchers uncover key insights into how the body protects against neuron damage
New research on nematodes reveals how glial cells maintain and monitor neuronal dendrites. Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy ...

Toxic ‘Forever Chemicals’ Are Everywhere—New Study Has Linked Them to Cell Death in Our Nervous System
In particular, one gene that is key to neuron survival “expressed less,” meaning it produced less of the protein needed to perform a particular function. In essence, these PFAS chemicals ...
Alzheimer's disease linked to disrupted brain oxygenation and neuronal function
Research led by Lancaster University has revealed clear evidence that changes in the orchestration of brain oxygenation dynamics and neuronal function in Alzheimer's disease contribute to the ...
