"This is possibly a new form of communication between nerve cells in the brain ... because they destroyed the cells, making it impossible to track the substance over time. The research is ...
"We can now map the entire network of tumor-nerve connections in the brain." Molecular contact tracing showed that the tumor cells connect to nerve cells extremely quickly. Long before the tumor ...
It has long been thought that only nerve and heart cells use electric impulses to communicate, while epithelial cells—which compose the linings of our skin, organs and body cavities—are mute, serving ...
A recent study by the Hector Institute for Translational Brain Research (HITBR) at the Central Institute of Mental Health ...
Scientists in China say they have developed an optical fibre technology that could pave the way for real-time endoscopies of nerve cells in the brain, as well as faster next-gen telecommunications.
called CAR T-cells, has kept a person free of a potentially fatal nerve tumour for a record-breaking 18 years. “This is, to my knowledge, the longest-lasting complete remission in a patient who ...
The team traced the roots of the animals’ actions to two pathways, or nerve-cell highways, in the brain. Both start in the amygdala, which processes stress, and lead to a brain area called the ...
