Snapshots of Life: The Birth of New Neurons
Snapshots of Life: The Birth of New Neurons Posted on January 25, 2018 by Dr. Francis Collins After a challenging day at work or school, sometimes it may seem like you are down to your last brain cell. But have no fear—in actuality, the brains of humans and other mammals have the potential to produce new neurons throughout life.Continue reading “Snapshots of Life: The Birth of New Neurons”
Opioid receptor was present in the nerves associated with the portal vein that collects blood from the gut
The sensations of hunger and satiety are mediated through communication between the gastrointestinal system and the brain. Duraffourd et al. found that μ-opioid receptor (MOR)–1 was present in the nerves associated with the portal vein that collects blood from the gut. Peptide products of protein digestion can function
Structural brain abnormalities in the common epilepsies assessed in a worldwide ENIGMA study
We formed the ENIGMA-Epilepsy consortium to understand factors that influence brain measures in epilepsy, pooling data from 24 research centres in 14 countries across Europe, North and South America, Asia, and Australia. Structural brain measures were extracted from MRI brain scans across 2149 individuals with epilepsy, divided into four epilepsy subgroups including idiopathic generalized epilepsies (n =367), mesial temporal lobe epilepsies with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE; left, n = 415; right, n = 339), and all other epilepsies in aggregate (n = 1026), and compared to 1727 matched healthy controls. We ranked brain structures in order of greatest differences between patients and controls, by meta-analysing effect sizes across 16 subcortical and 68 cortical brain regions.

Why Candida – yeast infection Sufferers Must Avoid Fast Food
