A researcher at the University of Missouri has made a promising breakthrough in the quest to help people with amyotrophic ...

Exercise may sharpen the mind by repairing the brain’s protective shield. Researchers found that physical activity prompts the liver to release an enzyme that removes a harmful protein causing the ...

A protein reinforces the blood–brain barrier, which becomes leaky with age. Exercise prevents brain ageing and memory loss by strengthening the blood–brain barrier, the structure that keeps harmful ...

A clinical trial shows that combining laser heat therapy with immunotherapy significantly extends the lives of patients with aggressive, recurrent brain cancer.

Exercise has a well known association with the maintenance of healthy cognition in aging, but the exact, biological reasons behind that link are not ... | Cell And Molecular Biology ...

Researchers at UC San Francisco have identified a biological process that may explain why exercise sharpens thinking and ...

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is meant to protect the brain from noxious agents; however, it also significantly hinders the delivery of therapeutics to the brain. Several strategies have been employed ...
