Cellular senescence is commonly defined as a state characterized by permanent cell cycle arrest in the absence of cell death, in which cells have altered function. While cellular senescence has been ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

When myelin breaks down, white matter in the brain deteriorates, a change commonly seen with aging. At the same time, microglia, the brain’s primary immune cells, can shift from protective responders ...

Tubulin acts as a master regulator, preventing Tau and alpha-synuclein from forming toxic clumps in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

Glial cells, also known as neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells that play a crucial role in various neurophysiological processes. They not only support nervous system structures but also contribute to ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...

When it comes to brain health, it’s less about avocado versus salmon and more about how they work together. Salmon delivers DHA and EPA, which provide structural support for brain cells. Avocados ...
