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

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

A UCSF team finds a liver protein, released with exercise, that improves memory in aging and Alzheimer’s disease by repairing the brain’s blood vessels. It's the missing link between exercise and ...

Gene therapy has been successfully used to treat a number of diseases, including immune deficiencies, hereditary blindness, ...

A new study reveals a hidden brain defense: base barrier cells. These cells form a molecular seal in the choroid plexus, acting as a gatekeeper against systemic inflammation and potential ...

High-grade astrocytoma, which includes glioblastoma, is a fast-growing, aggressive brain cancer that often returns after the ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

When mice exercise, their livers release GPLD1 into the bloodstream. The enzyme travels to the blood vessels surrounding the brain and removes TNAP from the surface of those cells. By trimming away ...

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 ...

A new study shows exercise releases a liver enzyme that repairs aging brain blood vessels and restores memory in mice.
