This compelling study introduces a set of novel genetically encoded tools for the selective and reversible ablation of excitatory and inhibitory synapses. These new tools enable selective and ...

Researchers developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron, which could lead to new breakthroughs in ...

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#TYK2--Neuron23 ® Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing precision medicines for genetically defined neurological and ...

Communication between neurons relies on highly specialized structures (synapses) where an activated presynaptic neuron releases packets of neurotransmitter molecules that diffuse across a narrow gap ...

Summary: Researchers have identified a critical protein, FAM81A, that plays a pivotal role in forming postsynaptic protein agglomerations, essential for synaptic function in the brain. By analyzing 35 ...
