The first clue about the possible connection between brain and muscle cells came when Janelia scientists noticed something ...

Using a calcium indicator, the team uncovered novel cellular behaviors tied to electrical signaling, shedding light on how early multicellular organisms sensed and responded to environmental stimuli.

Scientists have discovered that neural stem cells (NSCs) receive constant feedback from their daughter cells, influencing whether they remain dormant or activate to form new neurons and glia.

They found that both proteins interacted with TPC in an independent manner. Lastly, in vitro knockout experiments revealed the necessity for both JPT2 and LSM12 for not only unlocking calcium ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

Neurons that secrete the neuropeptide orexin help mice decide between exercise and snacking. I n neurobiologist Daria ...

"We also suspect that this enables this weak calcium signal to spread from cell to cell without disrupting other signaling calcium-dependent processes that are occurring simultaneously in these ...

Developed by Northwestern Engineering’s Igor Efimov and George Washington University’s Luyao Lu, the implantable device uses ...

In this study which appears in Nature, experiments showed that the gene mutation in a calcium signalling pathway enhances endosymbiosis in farming conditions. Excitingly, the team used genetic ...
