Small particles containing compounds that can enter cells and interact with specific targets to inhibit or modulate their ...
When we feel uncomfortable, we tend to eat less, drink less, and exercise less. This is not unique to humans—most animals reduce these three behaviors when fighting infection. Recently, a new study pinpoints clusters of neurons that control these responses (uncomfortable behavior). By provoking immune responses in mice, the researchers demonstrated that specific cell populations in the ...
For anyone who lives with PTSD or cares about someone who does, it likely doesn’t come as a surprise to hear that people with PTSD often struggle with relationships. And yet social support may actually help improve symptoms. So why is it so hard? And why do people with PTSD symptoms so often seem to push away the loved ones who want to support them? Several recent studies have explored ...
Meditation is often thought of as an avenue to clarity and self-awareness, but it may also be an avenue to better brain health. Emerging research suggests meditation may have significant benefits to brain health, ranging from improved mental and behavioral health to enhanced cognitive function. In this article, we will break down how meditation helps the brain and provide helpful tips for ...
It appears that high-contact sports such as hockey and football are becoming much more violent. Although both sports have made efforts to remove unnecessary hits from the game, concussions are inevitable when athletes are as strong and fast as they are today. The only reasonable solution is to improve the safety equipment the players use in hopes of protecting them from a traumatic brain ...
Much of the conversation about concussions has been focused on football. The violence of the game, coupled with recent studies that have shown how prevalent chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is in retired players, has brought a lot of attention to the sport. But concussions are a problem in all sports, including baseball. The number of concussions in baseball is troublesome, and they are ...

Scientists from Temple’s Lewis Katz School of Medicine and local biopharma company Neuropathix are testing their compound, KLS-13019, which is intended to target chemotherapy-induced pain in cancer patients. Sara Jane Ward, assistant professor of pharmacology at Temple University’s Lewis Katz School of Medicine, and Douglas Brenneman, chief pharmacologist at Neuropathix, discuss ...
Stroke is one of the most devastating and most prominent causes of disability around the globe, with 800,000 new cases each year in the US alone. During a stroke, the brain experiences an interruption in blood supply, which prevents the brain tissue from receiving the oxygen it needs to function properly. The most prevalent type of stroke is an ischemic stroke, which happens when a vessel that ...
MRI Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic procedure that uses a combination of a very large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to produce detailed, cross-sectional, and three-dimensional images of organs and structures within the body. An MRI scan is a valuable diagnostic tool that can show injuries or other anomalies that cannot be seen in a CT scan or X-ray. For instance, soft ...
An adult human brain contains approximately 86 billion neurons, along with about 85 billion non-neuronal cells. All those cells work together to manage motor control, sensory perception, heart rate, breathing, and more. While the human brain is extremely complex, with the ability to process language, it is not totally unique. Most vertebrate brains are quite similar; they all need similar ...
China is faced with urgent needs to develop an economically and environmentally sustainable economy based on innovation and knowledge. Brain circulation and research and business investments from the outside are central for this development. Sino-American brain circulation and research and investment by overseas researchers and entrepreneurs are well described. In that case, the US is the centre ...
