In their current study, which has been published in the journal eLife, the researchers investigated its effect on human nerve cells that they had cultivated from stem cells. The result ...

"Until now, we lacked a way to specifically label euchromatin and heterochromatin in live cells." To solve this problem, the researchers developed "Repli-Histo labeling," a breakthrough technique ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo.

A nerve cell/neurone carries information in the form of nerve impulses from the receptor to thecoordinator. The coordinator – brain or spinal cord – determines whether or not to respond to the ...

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a group of genetic disorders that causes a loss of motor nerve cells and muscle atrophy. There are five types of SMA relating to age of onset and symptom severity.

Apr. 4, 2025 — New research shows how small shifts in the molecular makeup of a virus can profoundly alter its fate. These shifts could turn a deadly pathogen into ...

The nervous system is an organ system that handles communication in the body. There are four types of nerve cells in the nervous system: sensory nerves, motor nerves, autonomic nerves and ...
