Intracellular transport is a vital process that allows cells to move proteins and other molecules to specific locations. This ...

Can we regrow damaged nerves? A new study identifies the AHR protein as the switch that limits axon regeneration.

How do neurons transport proteins? A new study reveals that Kinesin-2 motor subtypes regulate cargo specificity.

When AHR is turned off, neurons shift priorities. They increase protein production and activate pathways that support axon growth. The team also found that this regenerative response depends on ...

Precise intracellular transport is essential for neuronal function, yet the exact mechanism of selective cargo delivery by ...

These pillars are composed of polyacrylamide hydrogel, a material whose stiffness can be adjusted to match the ~5 kPa ...

Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have discovered a molecular switch in neurons that limits the ...

Neurons are specialized cells of the nervous system that communicate using electrical signals, which propagate down long, wire-like projections called axons. The conduction of these signals requires ...

Every organism must be able to respond to stimuli in its environment, but when animal sizes strain the limits of neuron ...
