Nerve cells that had similar gene expression profiles were grouped together as one sensory nerve cell type. In this way, they identified 16 distinct types of nerve cells in humans. As the ...

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

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

The Schwann cell precursor (SCP) represents the first step in the process of gliogenesis in growing nerves. In addition to generating Schwann cells, these cells are likely to provide essential ...

A Stanford University research team created a functional replica of the human nervous system for pain perception for the ...

Karl Koehler builds inner ear and skin organoids from human stem cells to model their development in health and disease.

This leads to the progressive loss of motor neurons, the nerve cells that control voluntary movements, while sensory function has been assumed to be unaffected. Recent studies suggest sensory neurons, ...

had on a specific sensory molecule found on the tips of peripheral nerves. They placed central and peripheral nerve cells taken from rats together in lab dishes to mimic the cells' relationship to ...

The research showed that up to 50 percent of the motor and sensory nerve cell death could be prevented in mice with sciatic nerve injury and researchers feel they are on their way to developing a ...
