With regard to understanding the disease process in AD, it is of considerable interest to consider the temporal relationship between the loss of cholinergic and glutamatergic neurons. Biochemical ...

A study published in Science Signaling on the neural circuitry mediating addiction has made significant strides, particularly ...

This important study shows that the activity of hypothalamic hypocretin/orexin neurons (HONs) correlates with body movement over multiple behaviors. Sophisticated techniques and analyses showcase this ...

We also discuss recent findings that highlight the interaction of distinct peptide-GPCR systems in modulating complex feeding behaviors. In this review, we focus on key GPCRs and their associated ...

Excessive glutamate release has been linked to stress and many neurodegenerative diseases. Evidence indicates abnormalities of glutamatergic neurotransmission or glutamatergic dysfunction as playing ...

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...

A recent study by engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), published in Advanced Healthcare Materials, has revealed that exercise may also stimulate the growth of neurons ...

Scientists identify neurons in mice that, once activated, can change body's metabolic rate, induce hibernation-like state Date: January 21, 2025 Source: Georgia State University Summary: A new ...
