Enhanced glucose uptake in glial cells might help fight AD. In Alzheimer’s disease and related neurodegenerative diseases, excess activation of glial cells causes neuroinflammation and damage to ...

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain's support cells ...

Glial cells, also known as neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells that play a crucial role in various neurophysiological processes. They not only support nervous system structures but also contribute to ...

Transferring mitochondria, or the glial cells that produce them, to mice with nerve damage mitigated pain, suggesting a ...

Huntington's disease has long defied attempts to rescue suffering neurons. A new study in Cell Reports shows that transplanting healthy human glial progenitor cells into the brains of adult animal ...

Scientific and technological advances in the health field have contributed to improvements in the quality of life and an increase in life expectancy for the ...

New research reveals the cellular secrets of aging, with cutting-edge single-cell data mapping how neurons, glial cells, and immune systems reshape the aging brain. Study: Brain-wide ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...
