Most neuroscience research carried out up to date has primarily focused on neurons, the most renowned type of cell in the ...
Scientists explore how the immune and nervous systems constantly communicate, influencing brain diseases, behavior, and ...
Astrocytes play a crucial role in mediating surgery-induced anxiety in mice through modulating GABAergic signaling in the ...
This dissertation focuses on the glial protein GFAP and Alexander disease, a severe neurological disorder primarily affecting young children. Mutations in the GFAP gene disrupt astrocyte function, ...
Research has revealed clear evidence that changes in the orchestration of brain oxygenation dynamics and neuronal function in Alzheimer's disease contribute to the neurodegeneration. Researchers found ...
A new study has found that Covid-19 could affect brain proteins linked to Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia.
This is an important study providing convincing evidence that increased blood pressure variability impairs myogenic tone and diminishes baroreceptor reflex. The study also provides evidence that blood ...
We will begin by highlighting a subset of the many cellular functions of astrocytes, focusing specifically on those functions that have the most relevance to neurodegeneration (Figure 1).
A key research question is whether impairments in astrocyte mitochondrial function drive reactive astrogliosis associated with cognitive impairment. Logan and members of her lab are working to address ...
A study published in JAMA Network Open explores the effects of both recent and lifetime cannabis use on brain function during cognitive tasks. The study, the largest of its kind ever to be ...
