In a rat model of chronic heart failure, Xijiaqi Formula improved cardiac indices and rescued learning/memory deficits while ...

Scientists know that the ravages of Alzheimer disease cripple the ability to lay down new memories, but the precise molecular dance that determines the success or failure of memory formation is still ...

Scientists have designed and developed novel biosensors that allow the simultaneous study of both sensory evoked neuronal activity and transcription factor dynamics. Our brains have a remarkable knack ...

Despite increasing evidence linking alcohol consumption to cancer, little is known about the biological mechanisms behind the association. A new study, published Aug. 12 in Cellular and Molecular ...
