Even when people with incomplete spinal cord injuries can walk, everyday functions like standing, balancing or producing ...

Every organism must be able to respond to stimuli in its environment, but when animal sizes strain the limits of neuron ...

Conducted by researchers from Stanford University, the study used genetically engineered mouse models to map how pain signals ...

When AHR is turned off, neurons shift priorities. They increase protein production and activate pathways that support axon growth. The team also found that this regenerative response depends on ...

A team of researchers at Stanford University has mapped a specific brain circuit in mice that sustains chronic pain without ...

Is chronic pain a separate brain function? A new study maps the neurological loop between the spinal cord and cortex that drives persistent pain.

All procedures were in accordance with the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) guidelines for the care and use of laboratory animals and were approved by ...

New York City-based Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai researchers have identified a “molecular switch” that may be capable of helping improve recovery after peripheral nerve or spinal cord ...

The cells that line the inside of the gut may play a key role in triggering inflammation that drives MS, a study found.

Can we regrow damaged nerves? A new study identifies the AHR protein as the switch that limits axon regeneration.

Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered a molecular switch in neurons that limits the ...
