Archaeologists discover brain cells preserved in glassy skull from the Mt. Vesuvius eruption 2,000 years ago
Researchers from Italy have found what appears to be intact brain cells that belonged to a man scorched alive by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The cells were preserved within the man’s blackened skull, vitrified, or turned into a glass-like substance, after being exposed to extreme heat and cooling rapidly, reported the researchers in the journal PLOS […]

Which brain cells are active during deep sleep – and how do they affect memory formation?
There are neurons in the brain that activate during deep sleep to create memories. A new animal study showed that these brain cells might be the same as the ones responsible for investigating new objects. The experiment tracked the activity of single cells deep in the brains of both male and female mice as they […]

Your brain doesn’t stop growing – even in your 90s
Some experts believe that the brain stops producing new brain cells after childhood — but that’s not the case, according to a new study published in the journal Nature Medicine. This study suggests that the brain continues to grow even in your 90s. Researchers from Spain reached this conclusion after looking at the brain tissues […]

Brain cells from pigs being used in human brains to treat Parkinson’s
All bets are off for someone suffering from a serious disease and wanting nothing but to get healthy. Maybe that’s why some are courageous enough to try innovative treatments, like one group of people with Parkinson’s who were implanted with brain cells from pigs. New Zealand company Living Cell Technologies has been trying to find […]

Exercise preserves brain cells and prevents memory loss
Exercise has been known to be essential for overall health. In a study carried out by researchers at the University of Jyvaskyla in Finland, the benefits of exercise on brain health have been emphasized. Researchers found that exercise can help preserve brain cells and prevent loss of memory, cognitive problems, and general problems in memory. For […]

Your brain may be older than your body, new study finds
A new animal study suggests that aging affects the brain earlier than the rest of the body. During the experiment, the immune cells of the brains of middle-aged mice showed similar activity to the ones in older mice, an article in American Physiological Society states. These cells are called microglia cells, which control potentially harmful […]

Study shows that it’s possible to grow human brain cells in mice skulls
It is a scenario that wouldn’t look out of place in the novel Frankenstein. Researchers have found a way to implant human brain organoids onto the brains of mice and grow them there, an article in Engadget states. An organoid is a tiny and simplistic copy of an organ. Artificially grown and transformed from harvested […]

Healthy elderly brains DO grow new cells — just as many as young adult brains, according to new research
Many older people don’t seem as mentally sharp as young people, and it’s long been believed that brains stop making new cells as they age. Some research has even indicated that adults do not grow new neurons. Now, a new study in the journal Cell Stem Cell casts these ideas in serious doubt as researchers […]

Graphene can drastically enhance nerve cell signaling in the human brain, say researchers
Graphene has been the subject of a number of breakthrough discoveries over the past two decades. Now, a group of researchers from Vanderbilt University has found yet another one to add to the ever-growing list. Graphene is said to be an effective material to help boost nerve cell signaling in the human brain, and the […]

New treatment for Parkinson’s is nonsurgical AND reduces need for meds; focused ultrasound will treat symptoms noninvasively
The treatment of Parkinson’s disease can be highly problematic. More often than not, those who are suffering from Parkinson’s need to be subjected to surgical forms of treatment and take a number of different meds that can help keep things under control. But it looks like things might change soon if a newly-devised method that is […]
