Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has emerged as a pivotal gaseous transmitter in the central nervous system, influencing synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory by modulating various molecular pathways. This review examines recent evidence regarding how H2S regulates NMDA receptor function and neurotransmitter release in neuronal circuits. By synthesizing findings from animal and cellular models, we investigate the impacts of enzymatic H2S production and exogenous H2S on excitatory synaptic currents, long-term potentiation, and intracellular calcium signaling. Data suggest that H2S interacts directly with NMDA receptor subunits, altering receptor function and modulating neuronal excitability. Simultaneously, H2S promotes the release of neurotransmitters such as glutamate and GABA, shaping synaptic dynamics and plasticity.

Scientists have detected a rhythmic ‘heartbeat’ occurring in the centre of the Earth.

It’s not big enough to be felt like an earthquake, but it’s noticeable enough for seismologists around the world to pick up a tiny, measurable ‘blip’ on their radars. Referred to as a ‘microseism’ by geologists, the pulse was first observed coming from the ocean and occurs roughly every 26 seconds.

It’s been quietly pulsing for decades, but scientists aren’t entirely sure what’s causing it.

Disney has finally taken us back to The Grid. This video goes over everything revealed in the official Tron Ares Trailer as well as other information we’ve learned.

Microsoft is testing a new Defender for Endpoint capability that will block traffic to and from undiscovered endpoints to thwart attackers’ lateral network movement attempts.

As the company revealed earlier this week, this is achieved by containing the IP addresses of devices that have yet to be discovered or onboarded to Defender for Endpoint.

Redmond says the new feature will prevent threat actors from spreading to other non-compromised devices by blocking incoming and outgoing communication with devices using contained IP addresses.

The study, as reported by the Independent, outlines that rural areas can often provide roadblocks for researchers:

“Communities in remote locations or impacted by conflict and violence are difficult to access, and census enumerators often face language barriers and resistance to participation.”
