“But we propose that maybe if you give nonbrain cells complicated enough tasks, they will also be able to form a memory.” Neuroscientist Ashok Hegde calls the study “interesting, because ...
Nov. 26, 2024 — Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new ...
Cell adhesion is the process by which cells form contacts with each other or with their substratum through specialized protein complexes. Intercellular adhesion can be mediated by adherens ...
Nov. 27, 2024 — The food additive carrageenan (E 407) can be responsible for the development of chronic inflammatory bowel disease, ulcers, and increased blood sugar levels in animals ...
A precancerous cell is a cell with certain abnormalities that makes it more likely to become cancerous ... An example is gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a chronic form of acid reflux that can ...
We can now collect cell-count data across whole animal brains quantifying recent neuronal activity, gene expression, or anatomical connectivity. This is a powerful approach since it is a multi-region ...
Researchers at the ICR co-led a recent study showing that it is possible to reverse drug resistance and slow tumour progression in prostate cancer by targeting myeloid white blood cells. Tumours can ...
