Imagine that the brain is a complex puzzle, with each piece playing a crucial role. One important piece is the β-Secretase BACE1, which has been linked to the development of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. We now know that BACE1 is influenced by a long non-coding RNA called BACE1-AS, which acts like a conductor, orchestrating the […]
Imagine an intricate web, where each strand represents a different network in the brain. In patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), this delicate web becomes entangled, leading to motor and non-motor symptoms. But fear not! Scientists have discovered a way to untangle this web using a technique called deep brain stimulation (DBS). This study investigated the […]
Imagine your brain as a bustling city, with different neighborhoods and connections between them. In a study exploring the effects of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) on the brain, scientists used resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) to investigate how these connections are disrupted. They compared 23 AMD patients to 17 healthy individuals, looking at functional […]
