Researchers have resolved the structures of all 12 serotonin receptor subtypes.
People who display high schizotypal traits are more likely to perceive effort-reward imbalance. Researchers found a link between effort-reward imbalance and reduced gray matter volume, and altered resting-state functional connectivity in those with schizotypal traits.
The aged non-human primate hippocampus showed signs of increased inflammation, genomic and epigenomic instability, and a loss of proteostasis.
Amotivation and anhedonia rather than expressive dysfunction play a critical role in determining social functioning in those with schizophrenia.
Exposure to high static magnetic fields alleviated anxiety and improved both spatial and social memory in mice within two months of exposure.
Researchers have released a whole-brain projectome consisting of over 6,000 single neurons in the mouse prefrontal cortex.
A ventral tegmental area dopamine neuron circuit that projects to the basolateral amygdala selectively controls anxiety-like behaviors, but not depression-like behaviors.
Body temperature exerts a greater effect on longevity and lifespan than metabolic rate, researchers report.
Increased follicle-stimulating hormones following menopause bind to FSHR neurons and activate the C/EBPβ/AEP pathway. The process plays an important role in triggering Alzheimer's pathology in females.
While patients with schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder experience a lack of motivation and anhedonia, the neural patterns of emotion-behavior dissociation differ between the disorders.
Microbiota transplanted from both autologous and heterologous donors can be established in aged hosts and facilitate microbiota restoration following perturbation by antibiotics.
Contrary to popular belief, a child's visual perception does not reach adult level at age seven. A new study reveals children's visual perception continues to develop and does not reach maturity until age ten.
