Study establishes a comprehensive single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas of the aging primate hippocampus and provides key information about age-related molecular signatures at the single-cell level.
Study reveals there is little evidence to suggest high testosterone meaningfully affects socioeconomic status, health, or risk-taking in men or women.
The MeCP2 gene influences ketamine's behavioral effect and strengthens synapses, leading to an improvement in the drug's antidepressant effect over time.
Farnesol, a naturally occurring compound found in berries and other fruits, prevents the loss of dopamine-producing neurons and reverses Parkinson's associated damage to the brain in mouse models.
Study reveals an abundance of the CRMP2 protein in people with schizophrenia. The findings could lead to a blood-based biomarker test for the mental health disorder.
Researchers recreated the damage seen in frontotemporal dementia in brain organoid models. The study reveals an experimental drug designed to treat Crohn's disease may help prevent neuron death associated with FTD.
Study identifies a rare class of genetic differences transmitted from non-autistic parents to their children on the autism spectrum.
Alterations in long-term social behavior and gene expression were observed in the offspring of mice exposed to pain-killing opioids during pregnancy.
VNTR2-1, a recently identified region of DNA, appears to drive the activity of the telomerase gene. The telomerase gene has previously been found to prevent aging in specific cells.
Piezo1 limits the potential of regulatory T cells (Treg) to mitigate autoimmune neuroinflammation. Inhibiting Piezo1 could lead to new treatments for autoimmune disorders like multiple sclerosis.
People who are genetically predisposed to be "early birds" only take a few days to adjust to time changes as a result of daylight savings. Night owls can take over a week to adjust to the time change.
Researchers identified a novel, direct link between autism and the SUV39H2 gene.
