Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) has long been recognised for its critical role in neural development. Recently, however, its influence in reproductive physiology has attracted significant attention.

ITHACA, N.Y. -- Bioengineers at Cornell University have demonstrated a system for transplanting clusters of brain cells, together with controlled-release microcapsules of protein, to enable cell ...

Researchers have found a new receptor for nerve growth factor that plays an important role in pain signaling, even though it does not signal on its own, according to a new study. The findings hold ...

Researchers from Skoltech and their colleagues have demonstrated that nanoengineered biodegradable microcapsules can guide the development of hippocampal neurons in an in vitro experiment. The ...

Observing the structure and regeneration of the myelin sheath in peripheral nerves following injury and during repair would help in understanding the pathogenesis and treatment of neurological ...

Urinary tract infections are painful, inconvenient and incredibly common. For decades, doctors haven’t had any leads on why, even after several rounds of antibiotics, UTI pain can linger. Now they do.

In a recent study published in The Journal of Neurochemistry, scientists from The University of Queensland report that the active compound from an edible mushroom, Hericium erinaceus, can enhance ...

A new study in mice and human tissue samples suggests that UTI symptoms may persist after the infection has been treated due to an overgrowth of neurons in the bladder. When you purchase through links ...

Researchers have found that a cancer outside the brain makes electrical connections with the nervous system to fuel cancer growth and aid its spread. Researchers have discovered that stomach cancers ...
