The nervous system contains hundreds of different types of neurons that have physical forms specialized for their functions. Neurons communicate using electrical signals, or action potentials.
By crafting an artificial brain-like environment with microscopic nanopillars, researchers have successfully guided neurons ...
During neurogenesis, stem cells become non-specialized neural progenitor cells, which in turn produce specific kinds of neurons. The bulk of neurogenesis happens during the prenatal period of ...
RIKEN neuroscientists found oxytocin-secreting neurons are selectively impaired in an autism mouse model, affecting social ...
Parkinson's disease primarily affects neurons in the brain that produce dopamine (depicted here). Now, RIKEN researchers have found that ...
A study led by Nikita Komarov and Simon Sprecher at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, has discovered neurons in the ...
They are involved in synaptic function, and determine the ability of neurons to communicate with ... Genetic Analysis of Retinal Cell Types in Neuropsychiatric Disorders, JAMA Psychiatry (2025).
