Dendrites are shorter branched projections that extend from ... with incoming processes from other neurons (most of the time with another cell’s axon). Synapses are where most cell-to-cell ...

Finally, using machine learning, they stitched those images together into a digital reconstruction of axons, dendrites and synapses, allowing scientists to “walk through” the cortical wiring as if ...

NP65 KO mice showed a reduction in ribbon synapses and disarrangement between photoreceptor axon terminals and bipolar cell dendrites in the OPL. Vitreous injection of AAV-NP65 alleviated the ...

In biology classes from high school through university, I learned that mitochondria are little objects that reside within ...

Researchers at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have identified a remarkably small but critical piece of genetic code ...

This study presents valuable findings on the patterned loss of Purkinje cells in the mouse cerebellum during aging. Convincing evidence shows that Purkinje cell loss with aging occurs in a pattern of ...

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea of mitochondria being little batteries with a built-in charger, about as ...
