Tiny plastic particles, or nanoplastics, could significantly alter brain development and behavior, according to a new study on mice published in Neuroscience. Researchers found that these particles affect the dopamine system – a key player in motivation and mood – and impact social behaviors during critical stages of development. Nanoplastics,...
Prolonging human lifespans is becoming increasingly feasible thanks to breakthroughs in cellular research. In the future, combating the effects of aging might involve something as simple as taking a pill. Scientists at the Mayo Clinic have made strides in this area by exploring the potential of senolytic drugs. Their research,...
Stress can shape how we form and recall memories, often sharpening our recollection of emotional or threatening events. However, new research published in Cell has shown that acute stress can disrupt this specificity, causing generalized memories that blur the boundaries between safe and dangerous situations. Neuroscientists discovered that stress alters...
