New Research Debunks Myth That Brain Cells Stop Growing After Childhood
Anti-aging "glue" naturally repairs damaged DNA to protect brain cells | A protein known as disulphide isomerase (PDI) assists against biological aging to ward off neurological degeneration including that seen in motor neuron, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.
Directly converting skin cells to brain cells yields 1,000% success | Scientists have managed to convert mouse skin cells directly into motor neurons, skipping the usual step of stem cells in between
Brain Cells Mature Faster In Space But Stay Healthy, ISS Study Finds
Cat poo parasites could cure disorders like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s | Engineered Toxoplasma gondii successfully delivered therapeutic proteins to brain cells, marking a significant breakthrough in overcoming the blood-brain barrier.
Using MRI, engineers have found a way to detect light deep in the brain. The new technique could enable detailed studies of how brain cells develop and communicate with each other.
