This key function of glial cells is likely to be more tractable in peripheral nerves because of their relative ... intimately associated with different parts of the neuron or with specific ...

PASCA: The cells are just working in a coordinated fashion across the four parts of this assembloid. HAMILTON: To test their creation, Pasca's team expose the nerve endings on one organoid to the ...

In lab-grown nerve cells from ALS patients, the compound helped the cells produce more energy and eased stress in the protein-processing center of the cell called the endoplasmic reticulum.

This leads to the progressive loss of motor neurons, the nerve cells that control voluntary movements, while sensory function has been assumed to be unaffected. Recent studies suggest sensory neurons, ...

These results suggest that CXXC1 and Foxp3 collaborate to regulate Treg homeostasis and function by promoting Treg signature gene expression through maintaining H3K4me3 modification. Strengths: ...

Hyporeflexia is the reduction or absence of the body's normal reflexes. It is caused by the disruptions of signals from nerve cells of the spinal cord (called motor neurons) to skeletal muscles that ...

These cells coordinate bodily functions and movement quickly, often without intentional thought. They also can be affected differently by health conditions. Talk with your healthcare provider if you ...

Previous studies have shown that enteric neurons—nerve cells contained completely within the intestines—interact with smooth muscle cells to drive peristalsis, but exactly what happens at the ...
