Revolutionary Discoveries Unveiled: Unraveling Cellular Mechanisms Post-Stroke

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

Emotionally-Charged Scenes: Brain Responses Unveiled” – Understanding Responses to Fear and Threats

The ability to recognize and respond to emotionally-charged situations is essential to a species' evolutionary success. A new study advances our understanding of how the brain responds to emotionally charged objects and scenes. The ability to recognise and respond to emotionally-charged situations is essential to a species' evolutionary success. A new study published today [July

Novel Treatment for Angelman Syndrome Discovered by Researchers: A Breakthrough in Genetic Therapy

Researchers have identified a small molecule that could lead to a safe and effective treatment for the neurodevelopmental condition known as Angelman syndrome. Angelman syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the maternally-inherited UBE3A gene and characterized by poor muscle control, limited speech, epilepsy, and intellectual disabilities. Though there isn't a cure

Unlocking the Mind: Brain Imaging Study Reveals How Curiosity Emerges

You look up into the clear blue sky and see something you can't quite identify. Is it a balloon? A plane? A UFO? You're curious, right? A research team has for the first time witnessed what is happening in the human brain when feelings of curiosity like this arise. The scientists revealed brain areas that

New Novel Compound to Combat Fentanyl Overdoses: A Game-Changer in Opioid Treatment

Researchers identified a novel compound aimed at improving the treatment of opioid overdoses. Scientists at the University of Florida have identified a novel compound aimed at improving the treatment of opioid overdoses, which claimed the lives of more than 81,000 Americans last year. The discovery could combat the devastating epidemic of opioid-related deaths, driven predominantly

Insomnia Medication Reduces Morphine Addiction in Mice: Maintains Pain Relief

New research has found a drug that treats insomnia works to prevent the addictive effects of the morphine opioids in mice while still providing effective pain relief. New research led by UCLA Health has found a drug that treats insomnia works to prevent the addictive effects of the morphine opioids in mice while still providing

Uncovering the Impact of Prenatal Cannabis Exposure on Mental Health: Biological Clues Revealed by Researchers

Researchers outline some of the intermediate biological steps that could play into how prenatal cannabis exposure leads to behavioral issues down the line. Scientists are trying to understand how cannabis may affect long term neurodevelopment when people were exposed to it in the womb. Previous work by WashU researchers Sarah Paul and David Baranger in

Unlocking Migraine Mysteries: The Role of Brain Fluid Dynamics in New Therapies

New research details the connection between the neurological symptoms associated with aura and the migraine that follows. The study also identifies new proteins that could be responsible for headaches and may serve as foundation for new migraine drugs. New research describes for the first time how a spreading wave of disruption and the flow of

Unlocking the Mystery: Innovative Ways to Diagnose Neuro Disorders

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a mysterious and deadly neurological disorder, usually goes undiagnosed until after a patient dies and an autopsy is performed. But now, researchers have found a way to identify the condition while patients are still alive. Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a mysterious and deadly neurological disorder, usually goes undiagnosed until after a

Unlocking the Secrets of Brain Energy: Impact on Late-Life Brain Health

A key mechanism which detects when the brain needs an additional energy boost to support its activity has been identified in a study in mice and cells led by UCL scientists.

Uncovering the Truth: Why Some Abusive Bosses are Tolerated by Employees

Why do employees sometimes accept working for an abusive boss? A new study suggests that when a leader is seen as a high performer, employees are more likely to label abuse as just 'tough love.' Why do employees sometimes accept working for an abusive boss? A new study suggests that when a leader is seen

Brain Imaging Issue Uncovered: Researchers Find Solution

Researchers found found that as people's arousal levels dwindle during an fMRI, such as if they become more relaxed and sleepy, resulting changes in breathing and heart rates alter blood oxygen levels in the brain, which are then falsely detected on the scan as neuronal activity. The researchers then developed a method, called RIPTiDe, to

Optimizing Neurostimulation Pulses: Strengthening or Weakening Synaptic Connections in the Brain

Scientists show that specifying the timing pattern of neurostimulation -- impulses used to activate the brain's own electrical signaling mechanisms -- can rebalance the strength of synaptic connections between nerve cells, selectively up- or down-regulating those connections. An awkward beat doesn't help on the dance floor, but it could help people who are recovering from
