Scientists discover chronic stress disrupts brain sugar molecules, causing depression through mechanisms current ...

Chronic stress disrupts O-glycans in the mouse prefrontal cortex. The findings open new possibilities for depression treatment.

Drinking blackcurrant juice boosts blood circulation in a brain region linked to attention and decision-making, according to ...

Neurons perform numerous complex tasks by communicating with each other via small messenger molecules called neurotransmitters. Accurately detecting them is crucial to understanding the functioning of ...

Neurons communicate via chemical transmitters which they store in the bubble-like synaptic vesicles and release as required. To be able to react reliably to stimulation, neurons must have a certain ...

Our brains are made of billions of neurons, which are connected forming complex networks. They communicate between themselves by sending electrical signals, known as action potentials, and chemical ...

According to researchers at the University of Oxford in the UK, the proportion of two common neurotransmitters in the brain can predict a person's math ability. The study was published in PLOS Biology ...

Also referred to as chemical messengers, neurotransmitters are chemical agents made and released by neurons. They are stored in vesicles at the terminal end (presynaptic terminal) of a neuron. Their ...

Neurotransmitters are essential chemical messengers that relay signals between nerve cells, influencing vital functions like mood and memory. Imbalances can cause health issues, and medications often ...

I wrote recently about my interview with Phil Campbell, author of The Sprint 8 Cardio Protocol. Campbell's book is the fruit of 30 years of self-monitoring, coaching, medical testing, and academic ...
