Researchers give insight into techniques to reduce neuronal deterioration,
Updated : 3 years ago IST
While medications to reduce the course of neurodegenerative disorders are available, there are no treatments. Researchers at Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, on the other hand, are searching for innovative techniques to reduce neuronal deterioration and cure amyotrophic

Study reveals role of particular nutrients in formation of neurons
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Although it is well recognised that neuronal development, particularly the growth of dendrites and axons, is metabolically demanding, little is known about the effects of different foods on neuronal development.

Study finds how specific nutrients affect neuronal development
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
It appears that nutrition affects an organism's physiological status at every stage of life. Although it is well recognised that neuronal development, particularly the growth of dendrites and axons, is metabolically demanding, little is known about the effects of different foods on neuronal

Damage to white matter linked to worse cognitive outcomes after brain inju
Updated : 4 years, 10 months ago IST
Washington [US], May 8 (ANI): A new University of Iowa study challenges the idea that grey matter (the neurons that form the cerebral cortex) is more important than white matter (the myelin covered axons that physically connect neuronal regions) when it comes to cognitive health and function

Injury to axon can stop neuron growth, says new study
Updated : 5 years, 3 months ago IST
California [US], December 15 (ANI): A recent study led by researchers from the University of California - San Diego, has claimed that injury to axons can lead to severe neurodegenerative conditions and also suggested ways to protect it for encouraging neuron growth.
