Neurons’ sugar coating is essential for long-term memories

How the brain is able to store memories over long periods of time has been a persistent mystery to neuroscientists. In a new study, researchers from the Centre for Integrative Neuroplasticity (CINPLA) at the University of Oslo show that long-lived extracellular matrix molecules called perineuronal nets are essential for distant memories.

Patients should receive up to 18 cycles of the regimen over the course of one year, according to the indication.

Using CRISPR to prevent hearing loss

About half of all cases of deafness are caused by genetic defects. So it’s no surprise that the emerging gene-editing technique CRISPR-Cas9 is being examined closely for its potential to prevent hearing loss in people who inherit those genes. Scientists at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute are among those looking to deploy CRISPR in genetic deafness—and they have their first evidence that their technique may hold promise.
