Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, depending on their physical structure. New research from the Institute of ...
Cambridge researchers created miniature brain-and-spinal-cord systems in the lab that can send signals and even trigger tiny ...
In the brain, highly specific connections called synapses link nerve cells and transmit electrical signals in a targeted manner. Despite decades of research, how synapses form during brain development ...
How do embryos develop? Why does the cortex of the mammalian brain fold? How do we feel touch at our fingertips? These and other fundamental biological questions remain unsolved. Yet, scientists know ...
New research has settled the debate between ‘kiss-and-run’ and ‘full-collapse’ fusion to explain how neurons transmit signals across synapses. Scientists from the University of Science and Technology ...

Semaglutide’s appetite effects may depend on brain cell signals that fade over time
Semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, is best known for mimicking a gut hormone that helps control blood ...

A small cluster of cells deep within our brains, called the locus coeruleus, affects how awake and attentive we are, how we respond to stress, how we cope with anxiety and fear, and how we create ...
Researchers at King's College London have identified the biological nature and timing of changes in human cortical neurons ...
Hunger is a powerful force essential for survival, driving individuals to seek out food. For early humans, it fueled purposeful movement as they hunted prey and gathered plants over long distances.
A new study reveals a dual-track gut-brain network using CNMa signaling to suppress sugar cravings and drive protein ...
