Australian researchers have identified two nervous system components that drive tumor growth in gastrointestinal cancers, creating promising new avenues for treatment with existing approved therapies.

New research finds that common nervous system components are present in the gastrointestinal tract where they influence tumour growth, revealing untapped opportunities for cancer treatment. GLOBAL: ...

Your sympathetic nervous system is one of the branches of your autonomic nervous system. It controls functions under unconscious control related to “fight or flight.” Your nervous system plays a ...

A new study has rewritten the conventionally understood evolutionary history of certain ion channels -- proteins critical for electrical signaling in the nervous system. The study shows that the ...

A new study shows that a part of the nervous system, the parasympathetic nervous system, is formed in a way that is different from what researchers previously believed. In this study a new phenomenon ...

The nervous system is formed of two parts that are integrally linked with each other. The brain and the nervous system has multiple functions that are vital for normal functioning of the body. A nerve ...

In biology, the nervous system is a highly complex part of an animal that coordinates its actions and sensory information by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body. The nervous ...
