Pain is an example of an important sensory neuron. When you feel pain from a hot pan or a sharp pin, you are sending sensory information via sensory neurons up to the brain. The flow of electrical ...

Microglia explained. Other important cells found in the brain are microglia. They are immune cells that help remove pathogens and dead cells, among other activities. However, if they are ...

In brief: Is Snake becoming the new Doom? A few weeks after the classic mobile title was shrunk down to a 56-byte QR code, someone has developed what's likely to be the world's smallest version of ...

iAssembloids combine hiPSC-derived neurons, microglia, and astrocytes in 3D spheres. CRISPRi screening revealed genes that affect neuron survival in iAssembloids but not in 2D monoculture. One gene, ...

Ceejay Faala, a junior Secondary Education major in Science student at Carlos Hilado Memorial State University Binalbagan Campus in Negros Occidental province, presents his invention, the “pencroscope ...

The world’s first fully 3D-printed microscope can be made in a few hours and for a fraction of the cost of traditional ones. “It’s not just enabling, it’s empowering,” says Gail ...

The study, published in the journal Neuron, highlights microglia, the brain's primary immune cells, as central players in both the protective and harmful responses associated with the disease.

The i-Solution software (Image and Microscope Technology ... Weisheng-tang enhances neuronal Kv2.1 clusters, thus contributing to improved microglia–neuron interactions. Notably, the P2Y12R antagonist ...

Furthermore, HI-reactive proliferation of microglia, astrocytes and oligodendrocyte progenitors is perturbed in the HCAR1 KO. In addition, we find that the microglia are less activated post HI.

There is a need for reliable and easy to manipulate models that allow studying the mechanisms behind neuron and glia communication ... co-culture model with murine astrocytes, neurons and microglia, ...
