This produces gray or black necrotic tissue. But this rotten center is surrounded by a border region populated by seemingly healthy neurons. Curious about the cellular landscape in these borderlands ...

(Jenny Burns/Allen Institute via AP) WASHINGTON (AP) — Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date – a diagram of the ...

These cells then migrated to a nearby motor control region of the brain-the striatum-where they developed into cells known as medium spiny neurons, the major cells lost in Huntington's disease.

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) The adult brain can generate new neurons that integrate into motor circuits, potentially repairing damage in Huntington's disease. Progenitor cells in the brain ...

They created artificial neural networks using these special infomorphic neurons and shared their findings in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Just like in the human ...

Frable notes that they also have an extracellular matrix, a layer of tissue that’s mostly water, likely to provide some structure and buoyancy, and they tend to move sparingly to conserve energy.
