MIT study zeroes in on how 40Hz sensory stimulation helps sustain an essential process in which the signal-sending branches of neurons, called axons, are wrapped in a fatty insulation called myelin .
Often called the brain's "white matter," myelin protects axons and insures better electrical signal transmission in brain circuits.
Researchers looked in the anterior cingulate cortex region of the brain, they saw that MAP2, a protein that signals the structural integrity of axons, was much better preserved in mice that received cuprizone and gamma stimulation.
Gamma stimulation reduced levels of HMGB1 , which is a marker of ferroptosis-associated damage that triggers an inflammatory response, but gamma stimulation calmed that response.
