Dopamine neurons in a part of the brain called the midbrain may, with aging, be increasingly susceptible to a vicious spiral of decline driven by fuel shortages, according to a study led by Weill ...

Dopamine neurons in the midbrain may, with aging, be increasingly susceptible to a vicious spiral of decline driven by fuel shortages, according to a study led by Weill Cornell Medicine (NY, USA) ...

The Institute of Neuroscience, Chinese Academy of Sciences, reports that human stem cell-derived A10-like midbrain dopaminergic neurons integrate into mouse mesocorticolimbic circuits and suppress ...

Neural organoids derived from patient-specific iPSC lines can help open doors toward studying human brain development, physiology, and disease progression. The increased cell-cell interactions in ...

A research team led by McGill University has taken a close look at a long-standing idea about Parkinson’s disease and found it needs revision. Working with colleagues at the Douglas Research Centre, ...

A new study shows how dysfunctional packaging of the neurotransmitter dopamine triggers toxic processes in neurons – and how this can be repaired with simple delivery of energy (ATP). Parkinson’s ...

A new study published in Diagnostics provides evidence that the striatum, rather than the cerebral cortex, receives the highest concentration of dopamine input in the brain. Advanced confocal imaging ...
