The brain is the body's command center, and neurons are the workhorses that carry out its commands. They transmit signals ...

Intracellular transport is a vital process that allows cells to move proteins and other molecules to specific locations. This ...

The brain contains many cell types, from the prominent neurons to the lesser-known microglia. The latter are integral to the brain's immune system and play a crucial role as the brain's cleanup crew.

New research suggests that tubulin may help prevent the toxic protein clumps associated with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.

Precise intracellular transport is essential for neuronal function, yet the exact mechanism of selective cargo delivery by ...

A clearance mechanism involving microglia has been known to relieve neurons of toxic protein aggregates such as those associated with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Unfortunately, this ...
