There are also multiple brain regions, 200 types of neurons, even large-scale neuronal deaths.
But in brain tissue, it is unable to target single types of neurons, instead rousing the entire neural neighborhood.
And a better understanding of types of neurons could have far-reaching implications for brain science.
Other studies suggest that Klotho can alter other types of neurons.
What is complicated are actually the neural circuits, how the different types of neurons are connected.
This gives us important information about the types of neurons in this brain region.
A single sodium channel mutation produces hyper- or hypoexcitability in different types of neurons.
In principle, "you could generate other types of neurons if you choose the appropriate factors," says study coauthor Benedickt Berninger.
As his interest in brain development grew, he and his colleagues developed a cell culture method for transforming mouse embryonic stem cells into different types of neurons.
Grid cells, discovered in 2005, are one of at least four types of neurons that make up the global positioning system in the mammalian brain.
A spiking recognition neural network composed of three types of neurons is proposed.
