A team of neuroscientists has restored lost memory function in cognitively impaired mice by flipping a molecular switch ...

Our brain’s memory center bears a sleek design. A peek into living tissue from human hippocampi, a brain region crucial for memory and learning, revealed relatively few cell-to-cell connections for ...

New research from Northwestern Medicine reveals how post-menopausal hormone shifts can weaken the brain’s memory networks.

A largely overlooked space between cells in women's brains may hold the key to understanding memory loss tied to estrogen ...

Just two doses showed improvements in cognitive function, restoring memory and focus, effectively reversing brain aging that ...

Investigators led by Navdeep Chandel, Ph.D., the David W. Cugell, MD, Professor of Medicine in the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care, have discovered how the metabolism of mitochondria supports ...

However, details of the intervening steps, as researchers have learned in the past 65 years, are quite complex — certain cells carry the flu antigen to the immune system, specific immune cells respond ...

We owe a lot to tissue resident memory T cells (T RM). These specialized immune cells are among the body's first responders to disease. Rather than coursing through the bloodstream-as many T cells ...

Estrogen loss in aging females causes the collapse of the brain's extracellular matrix, increasing Alzheimer's risk.

T lymphocytes differentiate from naïve precursors upon antigen encounter into distinct effector and memory subsets. Following priming by antigen-presenting cells in lymphoid tissues, naïve CD4+ and ...

Nootropics, often called brain boosters or smart supplements, are widely used to support focus, memory and mental performance. While some supplements show promise, nootropics tend to be more ...
