Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny bubbles released by cells, acting as cargo vessels through which cells exchange signals and thus communicate. A paper recently published in the journal Cell ...

How do we think, feel, remember, or move? It all depends on transmission of chemical signals in the brain, carried and released by molecular containers called vesicles. In a new study, researchers ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny bubbles released by cells, acting as cargo vessels through which cells exchange signals and thus communicate. A paper recently published in the journal Cell ...

Researchers are uncovering how extracellular vesicles (EVs) — tiny messengers released by cells — navigate the brain’s protective blood–brain barrier (BBB). These findings could transform drug ...

Organoids are three-dimensional tissue cultures intended to replicate in vivo organs such that their function can be analyzed for applications in drug discovery, diagnostics, and research. This ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in severe disability, and early detection of molecular changes is crucial for guiding treatment. In both rat and human samples, we observed a significant ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they unexpectedly found new information about a protein's special role in getting brain cells to communicate at the right time and place in experiments with ...

Technology created at the University of Queensland could improve the odds of surviving brain cancer and change how we treat a range of neurological conditions. Dr. Richard Lobb and Dr. Zhen Zhang from ...

How do we think, feel, remember, or move? These processes involve synaptic transmission, in which chemical signals are transmitted between nerve cells using molecular containers called vesicles. Now, ...

Video depiction of vesicle fusion and tethering. In the active zone in the central left of the video, docked vesicles (dark blue) fuse with the membrane, releasing their contents and being quickly ...
