In a new study memory and learning processes just now is not limited to the brain was discovered.

According to new findings, other cells in our body can carry out a similar learning process. Researchers from New York University (NYU). This discovery, made by , shows that significant progress can be made in the treatment of memory and learning problems.

Memory effect discovered in nerve and kidney cells

Researchers have found that repetitive behavior with certain chemical stimuli is not the only case in brain cells He found that it had a similar effect on other cells in the body. In experiments it was observed that nerve and kidney cells responded in the same way to the memory formation process called “cumulative-spread effect”. This effect neurons in our brain between creating strong memory traces It is caused by a chemical process that causes

The research team It is not specific to brain cells and stated that it works similarly in other cells in the body. Special In experiments with chemical stimuli Activation of memory-related genes was observed.

Researchers say these findings are related to learning and… in the treatment of memory-related diseases He emphasized that it could be an important step.
