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

Summary: New research uncovers how tau pathology spreads and damages synapses in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Using ...

In a key advance for regenerative medicine and gut health, scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and Nanyang Technological ...

Researchers from UCLA published a Perspective in Science Bulletin proposing bioengineered platforms that mimic immunological synapses to improve CAR-T cell manufacturing. Their strategies offer ...

Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to ...

By just sprinkling it on top and waiting 10 seconds, researchers can use this new fluorescent probe to clearly show synapses, the connection points between brain cells.

Excessive alcohol consumption causes alcoholic liver disease, and about 20% of these cases progress to alcohol-associated ...

Researchers have discovered the brain uses fat the same way muscles do — as an alternative fuel to glucose — going against ...

KAIST researchers have uncovered how alcohol-induced liver inflammation begins: through glutamate signaling and a brain-like ...
