Are artificial neurons underestimating the power of their biological models? Ten years after initial theoretical predictions, ...

Using in-vitro models of a specific type of brain cell, scientists have demonstrated that neurons can transform from one type ...

Neurons are the cells in the brain responsible for sending messages to the rest of the body, and scientists have long thought ...

The cells with electrophysiological activity obtained at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) are opening up new avenues for the study of neurodegenerative diseases and the development of ...

Neurons in biological systems rely on rhythmic ... inputs to explore how different illumination intensities influenced excitatory and inhibitory responses. Under dark conditions, the micropillar ...

They focused on the orientation of cilia antennae, which sense and respond to their environment on the excitatory neurons. Researchers looked for orientation changes during postnatal development ...

Scientists have identified a protein sensor in intestinal neurons that responds to pressure, inflammation to stimulate the colon.

Researchers discovered that PIEZO1, a pressure-sensitive protein, regulates gut motility and immune responses. In mice, PIEZO1 was found to control peristalsis and reduce inflammation by promoting ...
