Microplastics have been found everywhere in the human body, including blood, breast milk, testicles, heart tissue, lung ...

Researchers have already put a lot of effort in to characterise these cells by studying their gene expression or structure under a microscope, but in this paper, we have focused on assessing the ...

Angiopep-2 (Ang2) is an oligopeptide that can target the blood–brain barrier. Through single-cell sequencing and immunofluorescence experiments, we confirmed that the expression of LRP-1, the targeted ...

The best TVs under $500 are a lot better than you'd expect them to be. Years ago, spending $500 on a new TV might only get you 1080p resolution and a 40-inch screen. These days, it's definitely ...

This crew is called the microglia - the immune cells of the central nervous system. Microglia are imperative to maintaining neuronal function by clearing toxins in the brain and central nervous ...

Microglia, the brain's immune cells, exhibit altered gene expression and a weakened immune response as they age, potentially contributing to neurological disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

Bar. Date. Martini. Olive. Bank. Deep in your brain, neurons known as concept cells are firing. You might have concept cells that fire for martinis but not for olives. Or ones that fire for bars — ...
