Artificial intelligence was able to determine different behavioral phenotypes at different stages in the development of epilepsy in mice.
An AI model of gene regulation in the brain identified thousands of mutations associated with neocortical development and the facilitation of mathematical abilities.
Mutations of the ATG4D gene which is associated with autophagy have been linked to a rare neurological disorder in children that causes a range of motor coordination and speech problems.
People with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) have abnormally low levels of specific health-promoting gut bacterial species than those without the disorders.
Study links motor neurons' large cell size and supporting structures with genes that underly vulnerability to degeneration associated with ALS.
Could a Viral Illness Increase Chances of Developing Alzheimer’s or Other Neurodegenerative Disease?
Study reveals a significant association between certain viral illnesses, including viral encephalitis and pneumonia-causing flu with an increased risk of developing a neurodegenerative disorder later in life. Researchers say existing vaccines against the viruses may reduce the chances of developing neurodegeneration.
Study finds a link between poor hydration in adults and an increased risk of chronic health conditions and advanced biological aging.
Areas of the genome associated with brain development harbor variants that seem to account for behavioral differences between dog breeds. The genomic differences between dog breeds are related to the development of their nervous systems. Researchers say genes associated with different dog lineages may relate to genes involved in the development of human behavior.
Study reveals differences in gene activity in the caudate and frontal cortex in those with ADHD.
Children who play video games for three or more hours per day performed better on cognitive skill tests for working memory and impulse control than those who do not game.
Spironolactone, a medication commonly used to lower blood pressure and for treating heart-related problems, shows potential for the treatment of alcohol use disorder.
Age-related changes in the retina may be driven by the loss of the pigment epithelium-derived factor protein. The findings could pave the way for the development of treatment for age-related macular degeneration and other age-related vision loss disorders.
