Scientists have discovered that a specific type of brain cell, called an astrocyte, may be a key player in how cannabis ...

Glia can be classified as different subsets, based on their morphology, function and location in the nervous system (Zhang, 2001). The two main glial subsets in the CNS are macroglia, including ...

Spatial transcriptomics is a cutting-edge technique that characterizes gene expression within sections of tissue, such as ...

Astrocytes in white matter do not form a uniform population. The study highlighted two distinct types: one, widely distributed, ensures support and metabolic regulation functions. The other, located ...

However, we wondered whether glial cells, especially astrocytes, could contribute to the modulation of synaptic local protein synthesis. To address this question, we compared levels of proteins ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the University of Wisconsin-Madison today share a generative algorithm for achieving both high genome and image resolution in spatial ...

Polyphosphate (polyP) exists in all life forms; however, its biological functions in metazoans are understudied. Here, we explored Drosophila as the first genetic model to explore polyP biology in ...

Sometimes you need to fake the location of your device (for privacy or to test an app). Fake Traveler provides you a map to select the location where you want your phone to be. Long press in the map ...
