Brain-wide profiling of diverse biological components is fundamental for understanding complex brain pathology. Despite the availability in whole-brain imaging, it is still challenging to conduct multiplexed, brain-wide analysis with current tissue clear
The resource, which is also provided as an interactive web portal, includes 11.3M human cells from 14 main regions and 30 subregions of the brain (Supplementary Fig.1), while the mouse data include 15M cells. Single-cell RNA sequencing and single-nucleus RNA sequencing data of the brain wer...
What is glial tissue? What is nervous tissue made of? What tissues make up the peripheral nervous system? What is tissue made of? Of the four general categories of tissue, which is not found in the brain? What type of neurons are in the brain? What organ system contains the brain? Wha...

Yet another imaging technology is the positron emission tomography (PET) scan. For this scan, a small amount of radioactive material is injected into a vein, inhaled or swallowed. The radioactive material accumulates in the brain and gives off gamma rays, which are captured with a special type...
“What we're engineering is a fetal-like neocortical tissue that has all the cell types and structure needed to develop into normal tissue on its own,” says Hébert. Part of the work has been carried out by a startup company, BE Therapeutics (it stands for Brain En...
The brains of modern humans are around 13% smaller than those of Homo sapiens who lived 100,000 years ago. Is it because of the changing climate, or some of the skills we've picked up? Traditionally our "big brain" is thought to be what sets our species apart from other animals. Our...
The fetal tissues also produced their own extracellular matrix proteins, which acted as scaffolding and supported their 3D organization. This may enable scientists to further study how the environment of cells influences their development. This close-up image shows one of the tissue-derived mini...

Brain tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue in which brain cells grow and multiply rapidly and uncontrollably. There are majorly two types of brain tumors: primary and metastatic. Primary tumor constitutes the tumor originated from the tissues of the brain or the membranes around the brain. This ...
