The human brain is comprised of two main types of cells, known as neurons and glia. The first are responsible for ...

Fred Hutch researchers have created a gene-expression map of glial cells of the tiny worm, C. elegans, adding the missing ...

At five weeks old—when symptoms have just begun but before severe decline—these mice received injections directly into their striata of human glial progenitor cells, early-stage glia that can mature ...

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

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

Now, researchers at Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet say they’ve found the clearest answer yet. They report the discovery of ...
