Organ transplantation offers life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage organ failure, restoring function and vastly ...

An interaction between two proteins points to a molecular basis for memory. But how do memories last when the molecules that ...

The researchers used brain slices from genetically modified mice whose neurons were engineered to glow green when active. When they placed these tissue samples over their microscopic camera, it ...

Is the human brain, with all its problem-solving prowess and creative ability, powerful enough to understand itself? Nothing in the known universe (with the exception of the universe itself) is ...

Instead of taking the time to stain a slice of a tissue sample, a technician can immediately capture a micrograph, process it with the AI algorithm, and send it to a pathologist.

The team next aims to map the entire brain of a mouse, which would be 500 times the size of this human brain sample. They're starting with the hippocampus, a key region for learning and memory.

Qualitative analysis was evaluated through the fluorescence imaging of sectioned brain slices. Smooth muscle cells engulfing the capillaries exhibited higher fluorescence in the case of 70 kDa dextran ...

3D-printed two-layer cerebral cortical tissue visualised within a mouse brain slice. The implanted neural cells were labelled with fluorescent markers (blue and red in the image). In a significant ...

A new type of brain cell, called a glutamatergic astrocyte, has been discovered. It could explain how a variety of neurodegenerative conditions, such as Parkinson’s, develop.

Some argue that we make too much of findings in mice. For instance, the twitter account @justsaysinmice retweets eye-catching scientific claims with the comment “IN MICE” (Piper, 2019). Indeed, a ...

DNA-Based Fluorescent Imaging Probe For the new study, the researchers developed DNA-based fluorescent sensors that can detect two different forms of iron (Fe 2+ and Fe 3+) at the same time in cell ...
