Using single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic screening, the researchers identified key surface proteins that mediate ...
Researchers from the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine Basic Sciences have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of hypothalamic neural circuitry. Although previous ...
How do the circuits of the human brain work—and what happens when they are disrupted? To investigate these questions, ...
Netrin1 is a protein that was first characterized for its axon guidance activities during embryonic development. The netrin family has been shown to play many critical roles in developmental and ...
Researchers from the lab of Richard Simerly have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of hypothalamic neural circuitry. The work also suggests a novel role for the hunger ...
Researchers have uncovered a surprising role for the "Frazzled" protein in helping neurons connect and communicate in the ...
Florida Atlantic University neuroscientists have uncovered a surprising role for a protein named "Frazzled" (known as DCC in ...
Just an hour of socializing per day helped mice fight tumors. Now scientists have traced the brain circuitry that turns ...
A new study reveals that aggression and self-harm share a biological foundation in the brain’s response to early-life trauma.
