In a laboratory study, DZNE researchers have found that "alpha-synuclein", a protein involved in Parkinson's disease, is capable of travelling from the brain to the stomach using the vagus nerve as a…
DZNE researchers have found that certain brain cells interact in a detrimental way during stroke. Harmful electrical discharges are thereby amplified.
Study suggests astrocytes may be targets for…
