Ageing slows neuronal protein degradation in mice, leading to widespread accumulation and aggregation of long-lived proteins, particularly at synapses. As neuronal clearance declines, microglia ...

After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, forms an abnormal connection with an enzyme called ClpP. This enzyme normally ...

New evidence shows that precursors of myelin-producing cells — one of the few #brain cell types that continue to be produced ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

Navigating the world is no mean feat, especially when the world pushes back. For instance, airflow hitting a fly on its right ...

The mini review brings together emerging evidence showing that glial cells actively influence disease progression and ...

Drinks like green tea, coffee, berry smoothies, and others contain nutrients that can help support memory, focus, and overall brain health.

The human brain requires constant nourishment to maintain its complex network of billions of neurons, yet certain foods actively work against optimal brain function. While most people focus on foods ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells—one ...
