As we grow older, it’s normal to experience some level of forgetfulness or slower thinking. But what exactly causes this ...

This important computational study investigates homeostatic plasticity mechanisms that neurons may employ to achieve and maintain stable target activity patterns. The work extends previous analyses of ...

The brain runs on energy. Every thought, memory, or emotion sparks countless signals between nerve cells. That communication ...

The study also adds to growing research that links oxidative stress—when harmful molecules like nitric oxide build up in the ...

A new study suggests that semaglutide, a drug commonly used to treat diabetes, may help protect the brain from the effects of Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers found that semaglutide reduced ...

The study observed how exposure to toxins and inflammation can lead to S-nitrosylation that can disrupt healthy brain function, leading to brain disorders. S-nitrosylation, usually triggered by ...

Researchers from Scripps Research (CA, USA) led by Stuart Lipton have discovered that a chemical reaction – S-nitrosylation – is increased in response to toxins and alters a key protein involved in ...

The research team focused on a chemical process known as S-nitrosylation. This process occurs when a molecule related to nitric oxide attaches to sulfur atoms within proteins, changing how those ...

The manuscript reports useful findings by resolving the crystal structure of Sedoheptulose-1,7-Bisphosphatase (SBPase) from the green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, which is involved in the Calvin ...

The intricate modifications of LSD1, including phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, methylation, SUMOylation, and S-nitrosylation, dictate its enzymatic activity, subcellular localization ...

Known as S-nitrosylation, this chemical change prevents brain cells from making new connections and ultimately results in ...
