Controversial drug shown to act on brain protein to cut alcohol use
Medicationagainst nicotine addiction is nowadays readily available. However, asimilar and equally dangerous addiction, alcoholism, can't yet becontrolled by drugs. Or can it be? Researchers from the University ofCalifornia in San Diego identified a natural compound able to blockalcohol addiction in rodents. We can only hope that anti-alcoholismpatchs or gum...Drug That 'Tags' Decision-making Areas Of The Brain May Aid
Along with aiding efforts to study addictedsmokers, a new drug that attaches only to areas of the brain that havebeen implicated in may help studies of people battling other disorders such as Alzheimer’sdisease and schizophrenia.Developed by UC Irvine Transdisciplinary Tobacco Use Research Centers...Mouse brain cells rapidly recover after Alzheimer's plaques are cleared
Brain cells in a mouse model of Alzheimer'sdisease have surprised scientists with their ability to recuperateafter the disorder's characteristic brain plaques are removed.Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louisinjected mice with an antibody for a key component of brain plaques,the amyloid beta (Abeta) peptide. In areas of the brain whereantibodies cleared plaque...NYU Study Reveals How Brain's Immune System Fights Viral Encephalitis
New York University biologists have uncovered how the innate immune system in mice's brains fights viral infection of neurons. The findings, published as the cover study in the latest issue of Virology, show that proteins in neurons fight the virus at multiple stages--by preventing the formation of viral RNA and proteins, and blocking the virus' release, which could infect other cells in the brai...Mouse brain tumors mimic those in human genetic disorder
A recently developed mouse model of braintumors common in the genetic disorder neurofibromatosis 1 (NF1)successfully mimics the human condition and provides unique insightinto tumor development, diagnosis and treatment, according toresearchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.After validating their animal model, the team made two importantdiscoveries: New blood vesse...Brain at Biology Products
