During the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD), α-synuclein pathology may originate in peripheral organs and spread to the CNS. Using human tissue samples and multiple approaches in mouse ...

The nervous system is the body’s direct communication system. It’s made up of the body’s many nerve cells. These cells work together in a network that sends and receives signals from one ...

Parasitic infections can invade practically any part of the body. Brain parasites, those that infect the central nervous system which includes the brain, are potentially the most damaging and the most ...

New research from the University of Chicago revealed that the nervous system circuitry that controls arm movement in octopuses is segmented, giving these extraordinary creatures precise control ...

Octopus arms have segmented nervous systems to power extraordinary movements The large nerve cord running down each octopus arm is separated into segments, giving it precise control over movements ...

The large nerve cord running down each octopus arm is separated into segments, giving it precise control over movements and creating a spatial map of its suckers. Octopus arms move with incredible ...

The fine control these almost-alien animals have over each of their eight arms is at least partially down to the segmentation of the nervous system circuitry that governs it. This discovery by ...

The grade-level system was returned to the current system starting in the 2015-16 school year. The district has hosted three meetings, including one with parents and two virtual meetings ...

Cambrian fossils reveal ventral nerve cord structure in early ecdysozo Single ventral nerve cord identified as ancestral nervous system desig Paired nerve cords evolved later, aiding segmentation and ...

BASIC Education Minister Siviwe Gwarube said Grade R practitioners will be formally integrated into the basic education system as educators once the provisions of Grade R in the Basic Education ...

An international team of scientists has uncovered a fascinating piece of the evolutionary puzzle: how the ventral nerve cord, a key component of the central nervous system, evolved in ecdysozoan ...
