The new research reveals a novel mechanism for signal transmission in brain cells and helps answer an open question in neuroscience about how intracellular signals travel over long distances in ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Spinal muscle atrophy or SMA is a genetic disease that gradually destroys motor neurons, nerve cells in the spinal cord that control muscles. That leads muscles to waste away, especially in the legs, ...

Newly discovered brain cells count each bite before sending the order to cease eating a meal. Columbia scientists have found specialized neurons in the brains of mice that order the animals to ...

This surge of fluids causes your muscle cells to swell up, making your muscles look larger than usual. When you get a muscle pump, it might feel like your muscles are "full," in a sense.

A pulled muscle—medically known as a strain—occurs when muscle fibers are stretched too far and sometimes tear. While mild muscle strains can show improvement in as little as three days, severely ...

The detected cell types included ciliated, alveolar type 1 (AT1) and -AT2 cells, along with fibroblast, muscle and endothelial cells. The identified immune cell types were T, B and NK cells, along ...
