New research has uncovered that neurons store their own glycogen, acting as “backup batteries” to keep the brain functioning ...

The field of cancer biology and digestive diseases has increasingly focused on the intricate relationship between microbiota homeostasis and metabolic reprogramming. Metabolic reprogramming is a ...

Plasticity allows the brain to adapt, learn and recover. Exercise improves neuroplasticity by strengthening the connections and flexibility of communication between brain cells. The “plasticity” ...

This valuable manuscript addresses the longstanding question of how the brain maintains serial order in working memory, proposing a biologically grounded model based on synaptic augmentation ...

Research shows that neurogenesis, collateral sprouting, synaptogenesis, exercise, and an enriched complex housing environment all enhance overall brain and body potential.

Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability and autism, is caused by silencing of the Fmr1 gene, leading to a lack of the FMRP protein, which regulates protein ...

At first blush, the brain’s extracellular matrix (ECM) seems like the opposite of synaptic plasticity. Plasticity is the ...

Scientists are now exploring neuroplasticity as a powerful tool to treat neurological disorders like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and stroke-related damage.

Dr. Arun L. Naik suggests supplements for brain health. Magnesium supports learning and memory. DHA is vital for brain cell ...
