Every year, millions of lives are suddenly, swiftly transformed by a stroke, which occurs when a blood vessel travelling towards the brain becomes obstructed, causing neurons to die off. Strokes are ...

Some parts of our bodies bounce back from injury in fairly short order. The outer protective layer of the eye—called the ...

A stem cell therapy for stroke restored neuron function and revealed how transplanted cells navigate the nervous system.

The researchers have found that the increased expression of transcription factor DMTF1 can improve neural stem cell function, ...

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.

A research group led by Professor Michael Glickman, dean of Technion's Faculty of Biology, has uncovered a key mechanism in ...

WOODS HOLE, Mass. — The axolotl is renowned for its extensive ability to regenerate organs and body parts, including its spinal cord. Studies on spinal cord regeneration, however, have focused on ...

During brain development, neurons extend long processes called axons. Axons link different areas of the brain and carry ...

Glial cells, also known as neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells that play a crucial role in various neurophysiological processes. They not only support nervous system structures but also contribute to ...
