Sensory neurons that respond to temperature, touch and pain have ways of adapting to repeated stimuli that can change how a ...

The nucleus needs to be reprogrammed for cells to differentiate into new cell types. During this process, chromatin is seen to be re-organizing itself in a way that is thought to turn on new gene ...

Neurons send signals via action potentials, which involves a rapid exchange of ions across tiny conduits in the membrane called ion channels. Ion channels also work to quickly end this exchange. This ...

A recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation by researchers at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and collaborators identified HMGA1 as a key epigenetic regulator that ...

Conclusions The findings suggest that non-invasive brain stimulation over the TC modulates the ANS activity and the sensory perception of effort and exercise performance, indicating that the brain ...

Interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) is a key transcription factor in the type I interferon signaling. Its activation must be tightly controlled to ...
