With particular reference to neural cell types.

尤其是神经胞类型。

Just under a year ago, he appeared at a public lecture in a wheelchair to announce that he was suffering from a variant of motor-neurone disease, in which the body succumbs to inexorable paralysis: like being imprisoned in a shrinking cell, he said.

就在一年前，他出现在公共演讲庭，坐在轮椅上告诉别人，自己现如今正被不同种类动态神经胞病变所折磨，是一种将身体蹂躏成麻痹状态病：感觉像困兽般被囚禁在一个不断缩小牢笼中，他坦言到。

To weigh any more than that, it has to give up neurons.

为了比更重，它必须放弃一神经胞。

These MRI scans can measure the thickness of the grey matter in the brain–that's the outer layer of the brain which varies in thickness, and is full of neurons–nerve cells, which are very sensitive.

核磁共振扫描可以测量大脑灰度——灰是大脑外层，它度变化不定，充满了神经元——神经胞，它们非常敏感。

He reprogrammed the cells collected into iPS cells, then nudged them to become nerve cells.

先将收集体胞诱导成iPS, 再iPS胞转化神经胞。

Caffeine is a pro at mimicking a neurotransmitter called adenosine.

咖啡因是一种能够像“腺苷”神经递一样在神经胞间传递信息。

The way the tissue, nerve cells, and so on are arranged to make the brain.

组织、神经胞等排列方式，构成了大脑。

Grey matter is made up of the cell bodies of nerve cells.

灰是由神经胞胞体组成。

Dendrites serve as input device for neuron because it receives input from other nerve cells.

树突是神经元输入装置，因为它接受来自其他神经胞输入。

In the house mouse, a specific type of nerve-cell signaling-channel got activated by the venom.

在家鼠体内, 一种特定类型神经胞信号通道被毒液激活。

This tissue contains millions of chemoreceptors, nerves that capture odor molecules.

种组织包含了数百万化学感受器，也就是能捕获气味分子神经胞。

For example, neurons communicate neurologic information through neurotransmitter regulated electrical impulses.

比如，神经胞传递神经信息，通过神经递调控电信号。

Nerve cells are specialised in that they have branched endings called dendrites.

神经胞很特殊，它们有分支末端，称为树突。

Researchers found that " if they sprinkled BDNF onto neurons in a petri dish, the cells automatically sprouted new branches, producing the same structural growth required for learning."

研究人员发现，“当他们给培养皿中神经胞喷洒 BDNF 时，胞会自动长出新分支，表现出与学习所需一样结构性增长。”

It noted that fluctuations in levels in the brain of dopamine, a chemical which carries signals between some nerve cells and was known to be associated with the experience of reward, looked like prediction-error signals.

篇论文指出，大脑中多巴胺水平波动看起来像是预测-误差信号。多巴胺是一种在神经胞之间传递信号化学物，与大脑奖励机制有关。

STEP 2 Use alpha lipoic acid, or ALA. The burning sensation may be caused by damaged nerves; ALA neutralizes and prevents further damage to nerve cells.

使α硫辛酸。灼烧感或许是由于损坏神经造成。α硫辛酸中和并防止神经胞进一步遭受损害。

First, they will kill some of these neural cells themselves that are responsible for forming part of the brain and, also, it will slow down the growth of these neural progenitor cells if they're not bad yet.

首先，种病毒会杀死形成部分脑体神经胞，同时会减缓未变坏神经前体胞生长速度。

What they found, in attempting to model thought, is that the human brain's roughly one hundred billion nerve cells are much more talented and human perception far more complicated than previously imagined.

在试图建造思维模型过程中，研究人员发现，人类大脑中近1000亿个神经胞要比以前想像更聪明，人类感觉器官也比以前想像更复杂。

Silent synapses - which, as their name suggests, transmit no signal from one nerve cell to another - are often found on the ends of slender, immature protrusions from nerve cells, called filopodia.

沉默突触——顾名思义，它不会将信号从一个神经胞传递到另一个神经胞——通常出现在神经胞长未成熟突起末端，称为树突丝。

Yet like the mindless single-cell organisms from which they have evolved(and like the dullest task-accomplishing machines), each is able to secure the energy and raw materials it needs to survive in the competitive environment of the brain.

然而，就像它们从中进化而来、没有思维能力单胞器官一样，神经胞中每一个都具备获取所需能量和原料能力，种能力确保它们能在互相竞争大脑环境中生存下去。
