Researchers have pinpointed a gene mutation associated with survival at high altitudes that could restore myelin to damaged ...

Scientists identify a high-altitude genetic mutation in yaks that produces ATDR, a Vitamin A metabolite that repairs myelin damage in MS and cerebral paralysis.

New research reveals that psilocybin and MDMA promote long-term PTSD recovery by physically remodeling myelin insulation in ...

A genetic mutation that helps animals like yaks and Tibetan antelopes survive at high altitudes may hold the key to repairing nerve damage in conditions such as cerebral paralysis and multiple ...

Psychedelic drugs such as psilocybin and MDMA may help repair the brain’s insulating myelin layer, according to new research.

Johns Hopkins scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and artificial intelligence (AI) programs to construct new maps of mouse brains showing a precise location of more than 10 ...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is not only characterized by strongly encoded traumatic memories, but also by disrupted coordination across brain networks. New research shows that treatment with ...

A genetic mutation tied to keeping the brain healthy at high altitudes may point to a way to repair nerve damage, experiments in mice show.

Millions of myelin-producing cells have been mapped in the mouse brain, advancing our understanding of nervous system disorders.

Recent research on marathon runners found a reduction in an important brain substance called myelin after the race. The study author explains how this may actually benefit cognitive health, rather ...

A study of marathon runners, carried out by the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), CIC biomaGUNE and IIS Biobizkaia, reveals the unexpected behavior of myelin Exercise for a long period of ...
