A preclinical study reports Schwann cells assist injured axons by releasing protective sugars. The findings have positive implications for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases like ALS.
Cnicin, a compound derived from the plant Blessed Thistle, significantly enhances nerve regeneration.
Researchers initiated a pioneering clinical trial using an advanced form of CAR-T therapy, enhanced by synthetic notch (synNotch) technology, to treat glioblastoma.
Optical coherence tomography, commonly used in eye exams, can monitor neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease patients by measuring the thickness of the retina.
The conformational state of DNA fine-tunes the transcriptional rate and abundance of RNA. Here, we report that G-quadruplex DNA (G4-DNA) accumulates in neurons, in an…
Researchers identified a novel mechanism that impacts memory formation through changes in DNA structure, specifically G-quadruplex DNA (G4-DNA).
Cannabinol (CBN), a cannabinoid derived from cannabis, offers neuroprotective properties that could treat neurological disorders like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and traumatic brain injuries.
Fibroblast growth factor receptor inhibitors, commonly used in cancer treatment, could effectively reduce neurological symptoms in patients with post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome.
Researchers made significant advances in understanding how drugs like cocaine and morphine disrupt the brain’s natural reward mechanisms.
