          Shared Genetic Signatures Found Across Psychiatric Disorders

          Researchers have uncovered shared biological mechanisms across major psychiatric disorders by analyzing postmortem brain samples from the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. Instead of looking at gene expression broadly, they zoomed in on the exon level—the building blocks that influence how proteins are made.

          Blocking Brain Inflammation Molecule May Halt Alzheimer’s

          A new study has uncovered a surprising culprit in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease: the immune molecule STING. Scientists found that STING, normally involved in defending the brain, becomes hyperactive with age, causing harmful inflammation and accelerating brain damage.

          How Cocaine Hijacks the Brain

          In a groundbreaking study, researchers have engineered fruit flies that voluntarily consume cocaine, creating the first fly model for cocaine addiction. Typically, flies avoid the drug due to its bitter taste, but by disabling their bitter-sensing receptors, scientists encouraged addictive behavior within just 16 hours of exposure.

          One Molecule to Sleep and Wake: A New Brain Switch Discovered

          Researchers studying the tiny roundworm C. elegans have uncovered a surprising mechanism by which a single brain signal controls both falling asleep and waking up. The chemical messenger FLP-11 activates a receptor called DMSR-1 in different neurons to either silence wakefulness or shut down sleep, acting as a biological on-off switch.

          Blood Fat Links Found Between Heart Risk and Alzheimer’s

          New research reveals complex relationships between blood lipid levels and the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of dementia. While small dense LDL cholesterol—linked to heart disease—was associated with increased Alzheimer’s risk, other markers like ApoB48 were linked to reduced risk.

          Common Gene Variant Doubles Dementia Risk, But Only in Men

          New research reveals that men who carry two copies of a common genetic variant in the HFE gene are more than twice as likely to develop dementia, while women with the same variant are not affected. The variant, known as H63D, is linked to haemochromatosis and is present in about 1 in 36 people.

          Neuroscience and Genetics of ADHD and Neurodevelopment

          A leading figure in molecular psychiatry shares how curiosity about DNA led to a career focused on unraveling the biological roots of neurodevelopmental conditions like ADHD. By bridging genetics, neuroscience, and psychiatry, their work has illuminated how variations in DNA and environmental influences shape brain development and behavior.

          Lab-Designed Peptide Targets Glioblastoma Stem Cells

          A newly developed lab-designed molecule, JM2, may offer a promising therapy to combat glioblastoma recurrence by targeting the tumor’s most resilient cells. Researchers discovered that glioblastoma stem cells rely on the protein connexin 43’s interaction with microtubules—an interaction disrupted by JM2.

          A large-scale Swedish study has found that individuals with autism are at significantly higher risk of developing early-onset Parkinson’s disease. Researchers followed over two million people and discovered that those with autism were four times more likely to develop the neurodegenerative condition before age 50.

          Nitrous Oxide Unlocks Blood-Brain Barrier for Safer Gene Delivery

          Researchers have discovered that nitrous oxide can safely enhance the delivery of gene therapy to the brain by making the blood-brain barrier (BBB) more permeable when paired with focused ultrasound (FUS). This method required significantly lower concentrations of microbubbles and ultrasound pressure than conventional techniques, reducing the risk of tissue damage.
