The journal was established in 1989 as the Journal of Neural Transplantation and renamed in 1991 to Journal of Neural Transplantation and Plasticity, before obtaining its current name in 1998. It is published by Hindawi Publishing Corporation.
Neuroplasticity, also known as neural plasticity or just plasticity, is the ability of neural networks in the brain to change through growth and reorganization. Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize and rewire its neural connections, enabling it to adapt and function in ways that differ from its prior state.
Neuroplasticity is the ability of your brain to make new neural pathways, and change the ones that already exist, in response to changes in your behavior and environment.
How the brain changes. Brain plasticity science is the study of a physical process. Gray matter can actually shrink or thicken; neural connections can be forged and refined or weakened and severed.
The book is a collection of stories of doctors and patients showing that the human brain is capable of undergoing change, including stories of recovering use of paralyzed body parts, deaf people learning to hear, and others getting relief from pain using exercises to retrain neural pathways.
A new study from the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research at the University of Copenhagen used GLP-1 drugs as a "Trojan horse" to increase neuroplasticity in the brain ...
Two molecular mechanisms for synaptic plasticity involve the NMDA and AMPA glutamate receptors. Opening of NMDA channels (which relates to the level of cellular depolarization) leads to a rise in post-synaptic Ca 2+ concentration and this has been linked to long-term potentiation, LTP (as well as to protein kinase activation); strong depolarization of the post-synaptic cell completely ...
Activity-dependent plasticity is seen in the primary visual cortex, a region of the brain that processes visual stimuli and is capable of modifying the experienced stimuli based on active sensing and arousal states. It is known that synaptic communication trends between excited and depressed states relative to the light/dark cycle.
