Components of Neurons A neuron is a nerve cell. It receives signals via chemicals called neurotransmitters. It then transmits the signals, electrically. A neuron consists of a cell body or soma, dendrites, and a
The connection between dementia and the pathological protein inclusions that signify AD was first reported by Alois Alzheimer in 1906 [9] and the senile plaques were defined as amyloid by the observation of Congo red binding [10]. However, it would take almost 80 years from the first report b...
Neurons of organisms with complex and flexible behavior, especially humans, must precisely control protein localization and activity to support higher brain functions such as learning and memory. In contrast, simpler organisms generally have simpler individual neurons, less complex nervous systems and ...

One hypothalamic neural population, which are essential for controlling stress responses, are the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons located in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). In addition to their well-known role in controlling corticosteroid (CORT) secretion, this neural population has ...

Therefore, different types of exosomes can be used or combined with specific drugs for the therapeutic goal. Human retina is a delicate organization of neurons, glia (Müller cells, astrocytes, and microglia), and nourishing blood vessels. Retinal vasculature is characterized by an arcuate pattern,...
(Li et al.2020). Eggs are rich in protein and mainly have avidin, ovomucin, ovalbumin, lysozyme, phospholipids, lutein, and ovotransferrin. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties are present in the egg. Consumption of egg prevents wound, neurons, cardiovascular diseases, allergic reactions, ...
With recent advancements in AI, there’s also the possibility of computer architecture evolving into neuromorphic computing, a type of computer architecture Inspired by the human brain that uses artificial neurons and synapses to process information. Neuromorphic Computing holds promise for applications in...
The co-occurrence of unhealthy metabolic traits has prompted ongoing endeavors to unveil their common genetic underpinnings. For instance, five categories of T2D mechanistic pathways were identified using T2D-associated variants through clustering analyses, and the genes and traits associated with each clus...
