Abdominal Movement Flushes Neural Waste The brain is far more mechanically integrated with the rest of the body than scientists previously realized. In a study, researchers revealed a “hydraulic pump” mechanism that links physical activity to brain health. When you contract your abdominal muscles, even during a light movement like taking a step, you compress blood vessels that push fluid into the spinal cavity. This pressure causes the brain to gently “sway” within the skull, a motion that acts like squeezing a dirty sponge to flush out toxic neural waste via the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). neurosciencenews.com/abdomin… #neuroscience #science #Exercise (1/3)

Understanding the brain requites more than neuron connectivity: > These waves of calcium, rippling across astrocytes, reflect signaling dynamics that modulate neurons. Neuromodulation is necessary for keeping the brain’s activity level in a functional range, preventing it from either flatlining or erupting in seizures. For years, neuromodulation was thought to be conducted by neurons themselves. While previous work has implicated astrocytes in some cellular signaling, the latest experiments use “advanced techniques to really pinpoint and satisfy beyond a doubt that astrocytes are having a key role in neuromodulation in the brain. An excellent Quanta Magazine articles dives into the history and new evidence for the roles of astrocytes and their control over neurons. It has many implications: "The results suggest that neuron-only brain models, such as connectomes, leave out a crucial layer of regulation."

【視覚野、目で見てなかった】 新研究により、マウスの視覚野では眼球運動より、ヒゲ動きや匂いを嗅ぐ行動の影響が大きいと分かった。視覚の神経活動は、行動全体の流れを反映している可能性がある。“見る”って思ったより全身感覚の総和なのかも。

A new @Nature review on biomarkers for Alzheimer’s (AD) and other dementias "Multiple studies now suggest that the most promising AD biomarker is plasma p-tau217, which captures both Aβ- and tau-related aspects of the disease and provides information on a neuronal response to Aβ that predicts neurodegeneration" nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

「40Hzの音」を聞くとアルツハイマー病の原因物質を除去できる可能性を示唆する論文。 サルを使った実験によれば、40Hz（1秒間に40回）の低音を7日間聞かせた結果、脳脊髄液中のアミロイドベータ（Aβ）濃度が200%以上に急増し、脳内のAβ代謝が劇的に変化し、排出等が促された可能性が示唆された。
