Summary: The SLK protein plays a key role in the excitability and sensitivity of neurons, the researchers report. Source: University of Bonn Nerve cells can regulate their sensitivity to incoming signals autonomously. A new study from the University of Bonn has now discovered a mechanism that does just that. The German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases …

Leave a Comment / Artificial intelligence / By ADMIN

Summary: Researchers have identified a protein that could be harnessed to help microglia in the brain ward off Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. Source: The conversation Many neurodegenerative diseases, or conditions resulting from the loss of function or death of brain cells, remain largely incurable. Most available treatments target only one of the multiple …

How Trauma Changes the Brain – Neuroscience News

Leave a Comment / Artificial intelligence / By ADMIN

Summary: Researchers find that changes in the brain’s salience network occur when a person experiences trauma. Source: University of Rochester Exposure to trauma can be life changing – and researchers are learning more about how traumatic events can physically alter our brains. But these changes don’t happen because of physical injuries; on the contrary, the …

New blood test can detect ‘toxic’ proteins years before Alzheimer’s symptoms appear – Neuroscience News

Leave a Comment / Artificial intelligence / By ADMIN

Summary: A new blood test can detect the toxic beta-amyloid oligomers associated with Alzheimer’s disease years before symptoms appear. Source: University of Washington Today, by and large, patients are only diagnosed with Alzheimer’s after showing well-known signs of the disease, such as memory loss. At this point, the best treatment options simply slow the progression …
