New insights into how molecular changes in neurons impact brain development and disorders like autism and schizophrenia.

In a breakthrough study, scientists found that silencing a single overactive enzyme in the brain reversed early damage caused ...

Research shows that neurogenesis, collateral sprouting, synaptogenesis, exercise, and an enriched complex housing environment ...

Putting the brakes on an enzyme might rescue neurons that are dying in Parkinson's disease, stabilizing the progression of ...

Stanford researchers discovered that dialing down an overactive enzyme, LRRK2, can regrow lost cellular “antennae” in key ...

Inhibition of LKKR2 may rescue neurons that are dying due to a type of Parkinson’s disease that is caused by a single genetic mutation.

In AD, synaptic plasticity, the brain’s ability to regulate the strength of synaptic connections between neurons, is significantly disrupted. This worsens over time, reducing cognitive and memory ...

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) isn’t caused by just one faulty switch in the brain; it’s more like a tangled orchestra of genes and cells thrown off-key by trauma. With many genetic players ...

A targeted drug therapy has shown potential to reverse cellular damage in Parkinson's disease by regenerating critical brain ...

Research shows that neurogenesis, collateral sprouting, synaptogenesis, exercise, and an enriched complex housing environment ...
