Strokes lead to irreversible damage to the brain and are one of the most common causes of dependency or death. As the cellular reactions to a cerebral infarction are not yet fully understood, there is a lack of possible approaches to promote the regeneration of damaged nerve tissue in the brain. A new study closes
Researchers have developed a way to study aged neurons in the lab without a brain biopsy, allowing them to accurately model the effects of aging in the development of late-onset Alzheimer's disease. By studying these cells, the researchers identified aspects of cells' genomes -- called retrotransposable elements, which change their activity as we age --

Cause of disability worldwide. By utilizing prairie voles as a model, they hope to uncover new insights into the neurobiological mechanisms of depression and potential therapeutic interventions. This groundbreaking research has the potential to revolutionize our understanding and treatment of depression, offering hope for millions of individuals affected by this debilitating condition
