Scientists have found that blocking microglia (specialist immune cells in the brain) prevents infant forgetting ("infantile ...

For a long time, neuroscientists treated this forgetting as a cognitive glitch or a simple lack of brainware maturity. But a ...

According to the data, when microglia activity in the brain was suppressed, baby mice were better able to recall fearful experiences.

Blocking microglia prevents infant forgetting and improves memory in mice, suggesting they play a key role in memory ...

A study in mice suggests infantile amnesia is not a failure of memory, but a developmentally useful process guided by brain ...

Babies of every species from mouse to human rapidly forget things that happen to them—an effect called infantile amnesia. A ...

Researchers have unraveled how immune cells called microglia can transform and drive harmful processes like neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease. The study also integrates drug databases with real ...

Babies of every species from mouse to human rapidly forget things that happen to them-an effect called infantile amnesia. A type of brain immune cell called microglia might control this type of ...
