Key Brain Protein Reveals New Insights for Treating Neurological Disorders – Neuroscience News

Neuroscience News logo for mobile.

Resume: A new study reveals how the protein Gephyrin helps form synapses, providing new insights into brain connectivity. The findings could help develop treatments for conditions such as autism, epilepsy and schizophrenia. Researchers used CRISPR-Cas9 to confirm Gephyrin’s role in the development of autonomic synapses. This breakthrough advances the understanding of synaptic mechanisms and potential … Read more

New research reveals evidence of cometary outbursts from 12,800 years ago

Shocked quartz grains, with cracks filled with molten glass. Credit: UC Santa Barbara Researchers continue to build the case for the Younger Dryas Impact hypothesis. The idea holds that a fragmented comet slammed into Earth’s atmosphere 12,800 years ago, triggering widespread climate change that led to, among other things, an abrupt reversal of Earth’s warming … Read more

Research reveals ‘molecular glue’ that helps form and stabilize memories

Memories are stored through the interaction of two proteins: a structural protein, KIBRA (green), which acts as a persistent synaptic label, and a synapse-strengthening enzyme, protein kinase Mzeta (red). Drugs that disrupt memory-maintaining interaction (other colors) erase pre-recorded long-term and distant memories. Credit: Changchi Hsieh, Ph.D. Whether it’s our first visit to a zoo or … Read more

Comedian Al Murray reveals his best places to eat and drink in Glasgow

Al Murray brings the iconic character to the King’s Theater on Friday 28 June as part of the Al Murray: Guv Island tour, promising audiences “some absurd explanations for things, all wrapped up in the guise of common sense”. Al says that for people who have seen one of these shows before, it “has that … Read more

CERN experiment reveals “spooky action at a distance” persists between top quarks – The Debrief

top quarks

Quantum entanglement in top quarks has been demonstrated, according to CERN physicists who say the discovery provides new insights into the behavior of fundamental particles and their interactions at distances that cannot be reached by light-speed communications. The research, led by Professor Regina Demina of the University of Rochester, extends the phenomenon known as ‘spooky … Read more

New analysis reveals CO2’s greater impact on global temperatures than previously thought

New Analysis Reveals Co2's Greater Impact On Global Temperature Than Previously Thought

Recent studies have shown that a doubling of CO2 levels in the atmosphere could lead to a significantly greater increase in global temperatures than previously estimated. This finding comes from an analysis of sediments from the Pacific Ocean near California conducted by researchers at the NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research and the universities … Read more
