Interstitial cells of
Cajal (ICC) acts as pacemaker and their alteration has been proposed to occur in HD.
Rather, this striking image is one among the thousands of scientific images created by Santiago Ramon y
Cajal, one of the most influential neuroscientists of all time.
The conference took place at the Residencia de estudiantes and the Instituto
Cajal, two locations central to Cavanaugh's book.
Interstitial cells of
Cajal (ICC) were first described as "neuron-like cells" at the motor neuron endings.[sup.1] The hypothesis was advanced by Thuneberg, who suggested that these cells had pacemaker activity in the intestine, as in the heart.
Researchers also discovered that structures in cells called
Cajal bodies help process telomerase during chromosome-repair activity.
Spanish physician and Nobel laureate Santiago Ramon y
Cajal (1852-1934) made important contributions to science.
Summary: Madrid - The setting up of a "State" in the Sahara under Algeria's supervision goes against Spain's interest, former Spanish diplomat Maximo
Cajal said.
While it was Santiago Ramon y
Cajal who discovered that nerve cells have identifiable gaps, or synapses, between them, it was Golgi who came up with a way to stain neurons so that their behavior could be studied.
