Amino Acids Have a Significant Influence on Neuronal Development

The development of the brain has been studied in detail in various organisms, and we know a lot about the genes and cells that are at work during the development of the central nervous system. It is essential for cells to find the proper position in an organism so they can carry out the right functions. Genetic ...

Nonindustrial Societies May Hold Clues to Heart and Brain Health

Nonindustrial societies, including indigenous communities in South America, have some of the lowest rates of heart and brain disease ever observed in human populations. A new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences has explored the lifestyle of two indigenous societies in Bolivia ...

Study Explores the Mood-Enhancing Effects of Matcha

Japanese Matcha tea powder is known to boost energy, clarity, and mood. The powder activates dopaminergic neural circuits, and dopamine is a neurotransmitter and hormone that plays an important role in elevating one’s mood. Matcha processed from the leaves of Camellia sinensis may offer an effective natural ...

Parents' Personalities Influence Life Outcomes of Children

Parents’ personalities- such as how extraverted or neurotic they are- influence their children’s lives. The corresponding study was published in Infant and Child Development. Personality is associated with important life outcomes. For example, higher levels of conscientiousness or ...

Experimental Drug Treats Heart Failure and Sleep Apnea

An experimental drug shows promise in alleviating heart failure and sleep apnea. The corresponding study was published in Nature Communications. Heart failure occurs when the heart cannot sufficiently pump blood around the body. Despite treatment advances, its prognosis remains poor, and mortality: high ...

Non-Hallucinogenic LSD Could be a Useful Treatment for Mood Disorders

Mood disorders are very common; it's estimated that about 20 percent of adults experience some type of mood disorder during their lifetime. We still have a poor understanding of the biological mechanisms that underlie these issues, however, and they may also ...

Webinar: Dystrophin Quantification in Preclinical and Clinical Settings

Annemieke Aartsma-Rus, PhD - Professor of Translational Genetics at Leiden University Medical Center

Date: April 11, 2023 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT), 5:00pm (CEST) Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by mutations in the dystrophin encoding DMD gene that disrupt the reading frame. Muscle fibers lacking dystrophin are more sensitive to damage and over time muscle tissue and muscle function is progressively lost resulting in wheelchair dependency around age 10 ...
