Scientists have uncovered a crucial pathway that links brain cell activity to the activation of genes responsible for ...

A breakthrough study sheds new light on how brain cells relay critical information from their extremities to their nucleus, leading to the activation of genes essential for learning and memory.

The epigenetic memory of a cell defines the set of modifications ... crucial for transcriptional activation and embryonic fate determination.

the team used genetically engineered mice that allowed them to stimulate or inhibit the cells’ firing. “If we silence these neurons, aggression is basically gone, but mating with females is unaffected ...

A breakthrough study published today in the Journal of Neuroscience sheds new light on how brain cells relay critical ...

Meanwhile, the adaptive system, consisting of T and B cells, responds more slowly, targeting specific antigens and generating long-lived memory cells to enable a quicker, stronger secondary response.

Upon initial activation by their cognate antigen, naïve CD8 + T cells start to proliferate and differentiate into short-lived effector and long-lived memory precursor cells. How a single ...
