A new subtype of interneuron found in the retina plays a pivotal role within modular interneuron circuits, controlling whether to activate or suppress the object motion signal for downstream neurons ...

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) secreted from sensory neuron-interneuron crosstalk is key to the spreading of inflammation across joints, acting as a neurotransmitter and inflammation enhancer. Adenosine ...

The analysis of the human brain is a central goal of neuroscience. However, for methodological reasons, research has largely focused on model organisms, in particular the mouse. Now, neuroscientists ...

This is a GABAergic interneuron studied by the researchers. Color code indicates energy efficiency of the neuron. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for the accuracy of news releases ...

Dravet syndrome (DS) is a rare and severe form of epilepsy that causes intellectual disability and motor deficits and can lead to premature death. A loss-of-function mutation in one copy of SCN1A, ...

Scientists map prominent differences in the neural circuits of mice, monkeys, and human. The analysis of the human brain is a central goal of neuroscience. However, for methodological reasons, ...
