Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice ...

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a key site for opioid actions, and emerging evidence suggests that pain states and opioid experience both induce transcriptional, molecular, and circuit adaptations ...

Discovery that astrocyte networks shrink and reroute after a loss of sensory signals suggests they may be shaped by experience.

Researchers mapped brain-wide astrocyte networks that link distant regions, proving these "support cells" have their own long-range signaling system.

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice showed. These pathways ...

Researchers had previously discovered a population of immune cells within the brain that can act as accelerators and brakes ...

Scientists discover new neurons in zebra finch brains tunnel through tissue, potentially explaining human brain vulnerability ...

A discovery made by a research team from McGill University sheds new light on the mechanisms of memory retention, which ...

Researchers suggest tunneling may reflect a conserved strategy adopted by specialized migratory cell types in dense tissues.
