The brain's ability to do everything from forming memories to coordinating movement relies on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time.

A new method lets researchers visualize messenger RNA translation across different brain cell types. In this image, CA3 pyramidal neurons of the mouse hippocampus glow magenta, indicating especially ...

Researchers applied the Ribo-STAMP method to map protein translation in nearly 20,000 mouse hippocampal cells. The study ...

A study using Ribo-STAMP technology reveals that protein production in brain cells varies significantly between different types of neurons, offering new insights into autism and memory.

Memories are thought to be stored in sparse groups of neurons called engrams. These are the cells that switch on during learning and can later switch on again during recall. In physiological aging and ...

A substance derived from omega—3 fatty acid, which is found in Far Eastern sardines, reduces neuroinflammation and promotes the restoration of brain structures after mild traumatic brain injury, ...

Background: Obesity is associated with cognitive function impairment. We previously found that male, but not female, mice have poorer performance in learning and memory tasks and impaired hippocampal ...

This study represents valuable findings on the asymmetric connectivity pattern of two different types of CA3 pyramidal cell types showing that while athorny cells receive strong inputs from all other ...

The brain can amplify or mute sensations in real time using a newly discovered feedback loop, offering new insight into perception and autism. Shutterstock Our brain doesn’t just feel, it decides how ...

The mammalian brain is known to produce mental representations of the spatial environment, known as cognitive maps, that help humans and animals navigate their surroundings. A subpopulation of neurons ...
