Specialised animal cells include red blood cells, sperm, eggs, nerve cells, muscle cells, ciliated cells, and villi. Get it, lark? Anyone…? Okay let's move on. An animal cell is made of three ...

However, so-called acetylcholinergic nerve cells, which are important for memory and attention processes, appear to play a special role. In animal experiments, tumor growth slowed down when the ...

This response of the receptor is important because, inside an animal, those nerve cells are never exposed to environmental temperatures, and the researchers suggest that means they respond instead ...

A single dose of psilocin can induce changes in human nerve cells, providing researchers with a better understanding of the ...

Fat molecules known as PUFAs can help lessen nerve damage in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a study suggests.

Scientists are getting into the epidermis to explore how skin and nerve cells interact. “The skin is basically the window to the outside,” said Kathryn Albers, a neuroscientist at the University of ...

In mice, blocking nerve function inhibited cancer growth and increased the sensitivity of tumor cells to certain chemotherapies and immunotherapies. For several years, scientists have been ...
