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, ...

Researchers at Texas A&M University reported that two intranasal doses of extracellular vesicles derived from human neural ...

Scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys have demonstrated that vesicles traveling between cells in the brain carry more complete instructions for altering cellular function than previously thought. In ...

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 ...

The findings, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, open the door to deeper understanding of hormone circulation and access to the brain, how exercise may trigger ...

A protein that neurons rely on to share genetic messages with each other also packages and spreads toxic tau, the misfolded ...

Scientists have shown that specialized cells involved in how the body responds to insulin are activated in the brain after exercise, suggesting that physical activity may directly improve brain ...
