Researchers discovered that suppressing BMP signaling in astrocytes reduces seizures and restores brain balance in Fragile X syndrome models.

Recent studies suggest that animals and people alike have close and complex relationships with the bacteria around and within ...

Neurons that fire together, wire together” is not the full story. A novel mechanism explains how the brain can learn across ...

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited genetic developmental condition that strongly impacts brain development. Despite the ...

A cellular-resolution map of prenatal brain development in Down syndrome reveals disrupted neuron production timing and altered cell types.

Salk neuroscientists found how specialized brain cells called astrocytes contribute to fragile X syndrome symptoms: through a ...

Scientists from Johns Hopkins Medicine report new evidence that clusters of brain tissue derived from the cells of patients ...

Researchers discovered that astrocytes form organized, brain-wide networks that enable long-range communication between regions. These dynamic pathways depend on gap junctions and can reorganize with ...

Scientists mapped human brain development in Down syndrome at a cellular level, discovering that stem cells "rush" to become ...

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited genetic developmental condition that strongly impacts brain development. Despite ...

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

For the first time researchers have used an advanced AI model that understands both images and language allowing them to ...
