Study shows maternal immune activation alters hippocampal neuron excitability in newborn rats, with implications for autism, schizophrenia, and depression.

A team of European researchers has in a pioneering study, released on Tuesday, found compelling evidence that maternal ...

These vulnerable neurons were specifically identified as glutamatergic neurons, a type of neuron that uses glutamate as its ...

Researchers have revealed neural circuits in the brainstem that are crucially involved in implementing decisions by ...

“These glutamatergic neurons showed a strong connection with tau deposits, meaning they are more likely to be affected. In ...

Researchers have identified memory-related brain cells that are highly vulnerable to tau protein accumulation, a key factor in Alzheimer’s disease.

By comparison, activating the glutamatergic neurons — even for just two seconds — caused mice to spend more time leaping from one object to another in quick succession, indicating increased ...

Researchers from The University of Texas at Arlington and the University of California–San Francisco have used a new brain-mapping technique to identify memory-related brain cells vulnerable to ...

"We found that suppression of GABAergic neurons causes perseverance in a current or familiar goal; activation of glutamatergic neurons drives exploration of alternative options; and suppression of ...
