  • [Neurosci] Adult Neurogenesis Newly Adult-born Neurons Are Functionally 日期:2006-11-27 08:29:03 点击:262 好评:0

    In mammals, the production of brain cells occurs primarily at the time the nervous system is developing, although certain brain areas generate neurons throughout adulthood. One such area is the hippocampus, a part of the brain involved...

  • [Neurosci] Zinc Plays Important Role In Brain Circuitry 日期:2006-11-27 08:28:59 点击:192 好评:0

    To the multitude of substances that regulate neuronal signaling in the brain and spinal cord add a key player: zinc. By engineering a mouse with a mutation affecting a neuronal zinc target, researchers have demonstrated a central role...

  • [Neurosci] Downstate Researchers Target Multiple Sclerosis 日期:2006-11-27 08:28:57 点击:213 好评:0

    Researchers at SUNY Downstate Medical Center have developed a substance that inhibits the progress of multiple sclerosis (MS) in an animal model. The agent, a novel calpain inhibitor, can be administered orally. Calpains are a family of pr...

  • [Neurosci] Deep Brain Stimulation Offers New Hope For Dystonia Treatmen 日期:2006-11-27 08:28:55 点击:243 好评:0

    Dystonia, a group of diseases that cause a patient's muscles to involuntary contract with movement, has had a relatively limited and ineffective number of treatments in the past. New research shows that a recently developed surgical treatm...

  • [Neurosci] Proteins Anchor Memories In Our Brains - Holding Nerve-Signa 日期:2006-11-27 08:28:51 点击:133 好评:0

    A University of Utah study suggests that memories are held in our brains because certain proteins serve as anchors, holding other proteins in place to strengthen synapses, which are connections between nerve cells. "The essential idea is t...

  • [Neurosci] University Evaluates New Device To Treat Brain Tumors 日期:2006-11-27 08:28:47 点击:162 好评:0

    The University of Illinois at Chicago has enrolled the first patient in the United States in a study of a treatment for the most common and aggressive type of brain tumor. The international, multi-center trial will compare the best sta...

  • [Neurosci] Touch Tracking Bypasses Mind Control 日期:2006-11-25 13:16:10 点击:171 好评:0

    For people unable to simultaneously rub their stomach while patting their head, a twist may be at hand. Touch, rather than concentration, could let people multi-task with their hands, and this may also potentially help improve the perf...

  • [Neurosci] Parkinsons Mutation Stunts Neurons 日期:2006-11-25 13:15:24 点击:201 好评:0

    Mutations in a key brain protein known to underlie a form of Parkinson's disease (PD) wreaks its damage by stunting the normal growth and branching of neurons, researchers have found. They have pinpointed the malfunction of the protein mad...

  • [Neurosci] Theres More To Magic Than Meets The Eye 日期:2006-11-25 13:15:11 点击:173 好评:0

    The mechanisms that govern visual perception are only partly understood by scientists, and in fact much of what we know about how the human visual system works stems from investigations into our susceptibility to visual illusions. While sc...
