Scientists Discover New 'Rose-hip Neuron' in the Brain An international group of researchers published the findings Monday in 'Nature Neuroscience.' It's been dubbed the "rose-hip" neuron because of its "bushy" appearance. The "new" neuron is not found in mice Blue B. Lake, UC San Diego, via LiveScience Neurons in the brain <br />send and receive signals. More study is required to better understand the "rose-hip" neuron, but researchers noticed that it acted as an inhibitory neuron. Inhibitory neurons restrain the activity of other neurons. Trygve Bakken, lead study author, via LiveScience How this may influence the <br />brain's behavior has <br />yet to be understood.
