Neurons of the cerebellar cortex control social behaviors whereas cerebellar nuclei neurons regulate motor function The team found silencing the excitatory lineages in the cerebellar cortex and ...

Motor neurons are messenger nerve cells that relay information from the brain or spinal cord to muscles. Your every move -- raising your arm, puckering your lips or wiggling your toes -- depends ...

Injured motor and sensory neurons in the central nervous system -- the brain and spinal cord -- have limited ability to heal, so people who survive such injuries can be left with chronic paralysis ...

From Skin to Neurons Nearly 20 years ago, scientists in Japan showed that by delivering four transcription factors to skin cells, they could coax them to become induced pluripotent stem cells ...

A new study by UT Health San Antonio and Stanford University scientists brings us closer to understanding how the body detects different sensations such as pain, itch and touch.

Motor neurons play a vital role in movement, linking the central nervous system with different muscles in the body. As such, scientists are very interested in understanding the biological mechanisms ...

Injured motor and sensory neurons in the central nervous system — the brain and spinal cord — have limited ability to heal, so people who survive such injuries can be left with chronic ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Motor neurons play a vital role in movement, linking the central nervous system with different muscles in the body. As such, scientists are very interested in understanding the ...

Human sensory neurons modulate melanocytes through secretion of RGMB. Cell Reports, 2022; 40 (12): 111366 DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2022.111366 ...

Beginning with cultured mouse embryonic stem cells, HHMI researchers have administered a precise mix of chemical signals to coax the cells to differentiate into functioning motor neurons ...
