Glial cells support neurological structures, function, cognition, behaviours, physical skills, and motor coordination.

This is an important study that combines replications of findings and novel detailed MRI investigations to assess the impact of environmental enrichment and maternal behavior on mice brain structure ...

Nervous system dysregulation refers to a condition in which the nervous system becomes overly sensitive and reactive. It primarily affects the autonomic nervous system, which governs involuntary ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo.

Targeting nervous system interactions with cancer is going to be a major aspect of cancer care in the future. What does the future look like for cancer neuroscience? The field has been exploding.

The discovery of sympathetic nervous system cells in lampreys draws a closer tie between the animal and complex vertebrates — such as humans.

A team of scientists developed the first full model of the early embryonic central nervous system using stem cells.

Understanding the link between cancer tumors and the nervous system may be essential for winning the war on cancer, researchers say.

While these other animal lineages have nervous systems governed by the nerve cells known as neurons, placozoans were thought to be different.

Summary: Recent research illustrates a protective effect of progesterone on the enteric nervous system (ENS), often referred to as the body’s “second brain”. The study demonstrated that nerve cells ...
