New Sequencing Method Maps RNA Isoforms Across Brain Cells With Single-Cell
22+ hour, 14+ min ago (529+ words) Every cell in the brain carries essentially the same genome, yet the same gene can produce a startling variety of RNA molecules. Through a process called alternative splicing, segments of a gene’s transcript can be included, skipped, or rearranged, generating…...
AI Translates Light Microscopy Into Electron-Microscope Detail to Speed
1+ day, 7+ min ago (534+ words) Mapping the wiring of the brain at nanometer resolution has long demanded a punishing trade-off: electron microscopy can reveal every synaptic cleft and organelle, but imaging even a cubic millimeter of neural tissue this way takes months or years of…...
Brain Gatekeeper Found to Ferry Serine That Builds Young Synapses
1+ day, 1+ hour ago (75+ words) A transporter sitting in the walls of the brain’s blood vessels has turned out to be one of the most important gatekeepers of brain chemistry during development, according to a new study published in iScience. The protein, known as SLC38A2, shuttles…...
Falling Levels of Immune Protein sCD30 in Spinal Fluid Track Huntington’s
1+ day, 1+ hour ago (54+ words) Scientists in Sweden have confirmed that a single immune-related protein, measured in the cerebrospinal fluid that bathes the brain and spinal cord, falls steadily as Huntington’s disease advances — and that this decline mirrors how sick patients actually become. The protein,…...
ACE2 Loss May Tie Parkinson’s Disease to Bone Loss Through Shared Brain
1+ day, 1+ hour ago (56+ words) Scientists probing why people with Parkinson’s disease so often suffer fragile, fracture-prone bones have uncovered new molecular evidence that the two conditions may be linked by a shared signaling network spanning the brain and the skeleton. A new preclinical study,…...
Deep Learning Cuts Brain MRI Scans to Under 100 Seconds in Feasibility
1+ day, 2+ hour ago (764+ words) Magnetic resonance imaging has long been the gold standard for peering into the human brain, but it has always demanded one precious commodity that many patients simply cannot spare: time....
Nanomedicines Offer New Routes Past the Brain’s Defenses Against
1+ day, 2+ hour ago (626+ words) Central nervous system tumours remain among the most lethal forms of cancer, and a comprehensive new review published in Molecular Cancer argues that the reason lies not in a single failure of chemotherapy or radiotherapy, but in a dense, overlapping…...
Epigenetic Enzyme Keeps Spinal Disc Cells Metabolically Balanced, Study
1+ day, 2+ hour ago (631+ words) Deep inside the intervertebral disc — the resilient cushion that sits between the vertebrae of the spine — a small population of cells works quietly for decades to keep the tissue functional....
IQ Subtypes Elude Scientists Studying Autism in Landmark WISC-V Analysis
1+ day, 2+ hour ago (620+ words) For decades, clinicians and researchers have searched for a signature cognitive profile that could neatly sort autistic children into meaningful subgroups, hoping that patterns of intellectual strengths and weaknesses might unlock more personalized support. A new study upends that assumption....
Gut Bacteria May Reveal Brain Aging Decades Before Symptoms Appear
1+ day, 2+ hour ago (636+ words) The earliest fingerprints of an aging brain may be visible not in memory lapses or mood changes, but in an unexpected place: the gut....
