Study finds link between exercise-induced hormone irisin, Alzheimer’s dise
Updated : 2 years, 6 months ago IST
The first 3D human cell culture models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) that exhibit the two main symptoms of the disease—the formation of amyloid beta deposits followed by tau tangles—were created previously. Researchers are now using their model to examine whether the exercise-induced muscle ho

Schizophrenia genetic risk factor weakens mitochondrial function: Study
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Researchers have investigated overlapping patterns of altered gene activity in two separate models of the 3q29 deletion syndrome, including human brain organoids and mice with the deletion produced via CRIPSR. Mitochondrial activity has declined in each of these systems.

Study sheds more light on key link to autism spectrum disorder
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
Mayo Clinic and Yale University scientists determined that the origins of autism spectrum disorder may be related to an imbalance of particular neurons that play a vital role in how the brain communicates and works using human "mini-brain" models known as organoids. The cells in question are

New research links brain waves directly to memory
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
Neurons in the brain generate rhythmic patterns of electrical activity. One of the unanswered problems in neuroscience is what generates these rhythmic signals, known as oscillations. Researchers at the University of Arizona discovered that simply remembering experiences might trigger them,
