CSD is a slowly moving wave of synaptic activity cessation and tissue depolarization first described in 1944 (ref. 1). The mechanism of CSD wave propagation remains poorly understood 2. Here we have ...

As the depolarization wave spreads, neurons release a host of inflammatory and other proteins into CSF. In a series of experiments in mice, the researchers showed how CSF transports these proteins to ...

Research headed by teams at the University of Rochester Center for Translational Medicine and the University of Copenhagen describes for the first time how a spreading wave of disruption and the flow ...

Standard ADC components seldom provide enough flexibility to meet the conflicting needs of today’s medical designs. By Ian ...

More than 1 million people sustain head injuries each year in the U.S. alone. The primary damage to the brain is apparent within minutes, but it isn’t the only thing patients and their doctors have to ...

The findings of the study appeared in the journal Science. "In this study, we describe the interaction between the central and peripheral nervous system brought about by increased concentrations of ...

New research describes for the first time how a spreading wave of disruption and the flow of fluid in the brain triggers headaches, detailing the connection between the neurological symptoms ...
