Researchers have mapped how "histone bivalency" acts as a molecular clock for brain development. By holding genes in a poised state, this mechanism ensures neurons mature only after completing ...

Researchers have mapped 30 million cells to create a definitive atlas of the human neocortex. This blueprint reveals how human brain development differs from other mammals and provides a roadmap for ...

Astrocytes, once thought to be mere brain “support cells,” are now revealed to be key players in fear memory. Researchers found they actively help form, recall, and weaken fear responses by ...

A new single-cell atlas shows how epigenetic changes reshape brain cells during aging, revealing genomic instability, ...

A research team led by Director Seongkyoon Choi of the Core Protein Resources Center and Professor Wookyung Yu of the Department of Brain Sciences at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells - one of the few brain cell types that continue to be produced in the adult ...

A novel technique for treating GBM first underwent a phase 1 clinical trial with patients who had recurrence of their cancers ...

High-dose vitamin B3 (niacin) may boost immune function and slow glioblastoma progression, with 82% of trial patients showing ...

“I tested it three or four times before I believed it,” said Shigenori Inagaki of the discovery that enabled the breakthrough ...
