The brain's ability to do everything from forming memories to coordinating movement relies on its cells producing the right proteins at the right time. But directly measuring this protein production, ...

Pyramidal neurons have basal and apical dendrites, including an apical tuft. This preserved core structure suggests that they have conserved core functions, whereas structural variation in other areas ...

Layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a critical role in integrating and distributing information across neural circuits in the brain. These neurons are found in the outer layers of the brain and are ...

Pyramidal neurons are a very common type of neuron in the brain. Their cell bodies have a unique pyramidal shape that is the source of their name. They make up about two-thirds of all neurons in the ...
