Researchers have recreated the human ascending sensory pathway in a lab dish, using organoids that model the key brain and ...

Scientists develop lab-grown model of the human sensory pathway to investigate how pain signals are transmitted to the brain.

Scientists have re-created a pain pathway in the brain by growing four key clusters of human nerve cells in a dish. This ...

Immediate use for the newly developed assembloids could include studying neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism.

Scientists created a model of the human pain pathway in a dish by connecting four separate brain organoids. The feat should help them understand sensory disorders like those affecting pain perception.

Induced pluripotent stem cells are being tested to treat blindness, paralysis, Parkinson’s disease and more. Approvals might ...

For people with spinal cord injuries/diseases (SCI/D), performing daily tasks can be a challenge due to an impaired ability to grasp and manipulate objects with their hands.

Humans and other animal species can experience many types of pain throughout the course of their lives, varying in intensity, ...

Spinal cord compression (SCC) occurs in 5% to 30% of the oncology population and affects patient function, comfort, and general quality of life. Patients with lung cancer, breast cancer ...

The data convincingly show that the transcription factor Sp1 regulates ephrin-mediated axon guidance in the spinal cord. Although the authors show that Sp1 and its co-activators p300 and CBP are ...
