Glutamate receptors, including AMPA and NMDA subtypes, are pivotal mediators of excitatory transmission and plasticity across the mammalian central nervous system. Their regulation, which involves ...

Research has identified a mechanism through which insulin-like growth factors facilitate brain plasticity. The insulin super-family of hormones, including insulin, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), ...

Summary: A developmental neurobiology breakthrough uncovered a previously unmapped molecular pathway that regulates brain ...

Treatment resistance caused by cancer cell plasticity constitutes a major challenge in the treatment of prostate cancer. A recent study from the University of Eastern Finland Institute of Biomedicine ...

Researchers have discovered a new way that brain plasticity is controlled in early life, offering insight into the ...

A new study suggests a potential molecular strategy for treating fragile X syndrome, an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that causes autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. This ...

A new study found that cannabis affects brain development by interacting with CB1 receptors on astrocytes. The findings indicate that disrupting CB1 receptor activity during development, such as via ...

You have almost certainly had the experience: after a terrible night of sleep, you pass someone in the hallway and draw a ...

A team at Indiana University School of Medicine’s Stark Neurosciences Research Center has published findings showing that ...

A recent study suggests that the SIX2 protein may be a possible factor underlying increased plasticity of prostate cancer cells and treatment resistance. Treatment resistance caused by cancer cell ...
