Thus, humans have much bigger forebrains relative to their brainstem than do rats. This rule is frequently modulated by adaptive enlargement of useful brain parts: so-called mosaic evolution.

The molecular complexity of mammalian proteomes demands new methods for mapping the organization of multiprotein complexes. Here, we combine mouse genetics and proteomics to characterize synapse ...

2023). Here, while we noticed a significant decreased in the size of isogenic HD1 forebrains co-cultured with isogenic HD1 iMac compared to isogenic HD1 organoids, we did not measure any significant ...

Under physiological conditions TDP-43 is primarily nuclear, but in some people with ALS and FTD the protein relocates to the cytoplasm where it accumulates into hallmark inclusions. To investigate the ...
