A novel method involving the xenotransplantation of cortical organoids has facilitated fascinating new insights into the development and function of microglia. A recent international collaboration, ...
LA JOLLA (May 11, 2023)—Situated at the intersection of the human immune system and the brain are microglia, specialized brain immune cells that play a crucial role in development and disease.
Fetal brain development can be negatively impacted by an infection that occurs in utero, and the resulting maternal inflammation. Indeed, an illness in a mother is associated with an increased risk of ...
An international research team headed by scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Sciences has developed an organoid model—a three-dimensional collection of cells that mimics features of human ...
Taste, like other senses, is mediated by finely tuned circuits of neurons. These circuits are formed during embryonic development, when many extra neuronal synapses that will not exist in the fully ...
Despite decades of research, scientists still grapple with the question of why neuronal health is compromised in neurodegenerative diseases. For a long time, scientists believed that Alzheimer’s ...
