Imagine the magnificent glaciers of Greenland, the eternal snow of the Tibetan high mountains, and the permanently ice-cold ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have reconciled two closely related but contentious mechanisms underlying ...

New research reveals that Alzheimer's disease may impair nerve function not by reducing myelin, but by altering the proteins ...

As time goes by, our bodies change, you know, even the brain. A major change is how brain structure seems to shrink with age. Studies show that this happens at both large and small levels inside. You ...

When the structure is impaired, so is the conduction of electrical signals. To better understand any pathological processes related to Alzheimer’s disease that might affect the myelin sheath, Yale ...

She has identified more than 400 preserved proteins. (The most abundant of these is myelin basic protein, which helps form the insulating sheath on our neural wiring.) ...

Causing mice to express more C1QL1, however, led to increased numbers of oligodendrocytes and more myelination upon drug withdrawal, suggesting that C1QL1 helps to restore the damaged myelin layer.

During training, the team found that it took about 20,000 instances of protein structures for AlphaFold 3 to get about 97 percent of a set of test structures right. By 60,000 instances, it started ...
