Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered that targeting neuronal signaling controlling aberrant learning in the ...

The nonapeptide Oxytocin is a cyclic nine-amino‐acid peptide that has long been studied for its possible roles in ...

Researchers have discovered a new correlation between neural signaling in the brain and dopamine signaling in the striatum. The human brain requires fast neural signal processing in a short period of ...

Kallyope, a late-stage biotechnology company focused on developing innovative migraine and metabolic disease therapies for health challenges faced by hundreds of millions of people globally, announced ...

As a neuromodulator, norepinephrine is a powerful force in the brain. We all know it orchestrates rapid changes in behavior such as the fight-or-flight response. Fewer people know that astrocytes ...

DGIST (President Lee Kunwoo) Department of Brain Sciences Professor Lee Kwang and his team have discovered a new correlation between neural signaling in the brain and dopamine signaling in the ...

This study focused on how NMDAR, an important cell surface receptor, triggers a complex chemical cascade in postsynaptic neurons in the nucleus accumbens region of the brain. More specifically, the ...

The researchers found that this process is triggered when a neuronal signal causes calcium to enter the dendrite through voltage-gated ion channel proteins, which are positioned at the contact sites.

When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the ...
