A preclinical study published in Biological Psychiatry has found that repeated low doses of psilocybin and MDMA reshape ...

Psychedelic drugs such as psilocybin and MDMA may help repair the brain’s insulating myelin layer, according to new research.

New research reveals that psilocybin and MDMA promote long-term PTSD recovery by physically remodeling myelin insulation in ...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is not only characterized by strongly encoded traumatic memories, but also by disrupted coordination across brain networks. New research shows that treatment with ...

Johns Hopkins scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and artificial intelligence (AI) programs to construct new maps of mouse brains showing a precise location of more than 10 ...

Researchers reveal that lack of sleep damages the myelin sheath in the brain and slows the rate of neural signal transmission ...

Millions of myelin-producing cells have been mapped in the mouse brain, advancing our understanding of nervous system ...

Demyelinating diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS) and Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, present a substantial and escalating burden. | Demyelinating diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS ...

New evidence of myelin's essential role in learning and retaining new practical skills, such as playing a musical instrument, has been uncovered by research. Myelin is a fatty substance produced by ...

Researchers mapped myelin-making cells in mice, showing some brain regions recover better after myelin damage.

In long-lived animals, renewed but thin myelin sheaths are enough to restore the impaired nervous system and can do so for years after the onset of disease, scientists have discovered. In the central ...
