Achieving this complex balance involves proper coordination between excitatory, glutamatergic, and inhibitory GABAergic signaling. Although either signaling pathway can fluctuate in response to ...

New research has pinpointed the specific brain region and neuron type responsible for reducing anxiety using the psychedelic ...

Our findings first demonstrate that GABAergic inhibition mechanisms (but not excitatory Glu) in hMT+ region relate to 3D visuo-spatial ability. Further, analysis of functional brain connectivity at ...

"Our study shows that even if a pre-synaptic neuron is not releasing GABA, the post-synaptic neuron can still put together ... More information: Etta Carricaburu et al, Gephyrin promotes autonomous ...

An example Sst Chordl cell (left) shows dense projections to cortical layer 6, while another inhibitory subtype, Sst Hpse Cbln4 (right), shows dense projections to layer 4.

Neuroscientists have made a groundbreaking discovery about how the brain controls sensitivity to threats, paving the way for ...

Summary: Scientists have identified two neural mechanisms, “Walk-OFF” and “Brake,” that control stopping behavior in fruit ...

Clustering by methylation, rather than by transcriptome, Tegowski identified 18 distinct subtypes of glutamatergic neuron. Each had between 70 and 200 differentially methylated ... including ...

Motor neuron disease usually refers to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, but it can also refer to other kind of neurodegenerative disease that affect the motor neurons, such as progressive primary ...
