Scientists from the University of Massachusetts in the United States found the back of the brain are a cluster of cells responsible for the regulation of loneliness. As it turned out, these cells significantly activated in the absence of communication.
Make a discovery helped mice, the chemical composition of which is close to the human brain. And initially the researchers studied the effects on the Rodent drugs. For this, they were divided his subjects into three groups. Lived alone apart give preparations, others have not received any drugs, but remained in the group, and others are not prepared preparations, but lived in individual cells
Shortly isolated mice sat down with relatives. At the same time, scientists have recorded changes in neural connections in the little-studied dorsal seam brain nuclei. A detailed description of the study were published in the journal Cell.
