Role of dopamine in songbird's brain plasticity Posted: 02 Jul 2021 12:43 PM PDT Neuroscientists have demonstrated in new research that dopamine plays a key role in how songbirds learn complex new sounds. |
Pioneering noninvasive technique for neurological conditions Posted: 02 Jul 2021 08:46 AM PDT Researchers are developing a new, noninvasive brain stimulation technique to treat neurological disorders, including pain, traumatic brain injury (TBI), epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and more. |
Uncovering the genetic mechanism behind Rett syndrome Posted: 02 Jul 2021 08:45 AM PDT Researchers found that the main gene that causes Rett syndrome, MeCP2, controls the differentiation pattern of neural stem cells through the microRNA miR-199a. Dysfunction in MeCP2 or miR-199a cause neural stem cells to produce more astrocytes than neurons. Furthermore, the researchers found that miR-199a mediates the production of Smad1, a downstream transcription factor of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling. |
Large-scale drug analysis reveals potential new COVID-19 antivirals Posted: 01 Jul 2021 04:53 PM PDT Researchers have screened thousands of drug and chemical molecules and identified a range of potential antivirals that could be developed into new treatments for COVID-19 or in preparation for future coronavirus outbreaks. |
