Huge brain study uncovers ‘buried’ genetic networks linked to mental illness.

Enormous genomic analysis yields tantalizing insights into mechanisms behind conditions such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The PsychENCODE Consortium, which was founded by the US National Institutes of Health in 2015, aims to join the dots between these genetic associations and actual changes in gene function, by taking samples of brain tissue from thousands of cadavers… Continuar lendo Huge brain study uncovers ‘buried’ genetic networks linked to mental illness.

Integrative functional genomic analysis of human brain development and neuropsychiatric risks.

The brain is responsible for cognition, behavior, and much of what makes us uniquely human. The development of the brain is a highly complex process, and this process is reliant on precise regulation of molecular and cellular events grounded in the spatiotemporal regulation of the transcriptome. Disruption of this regulation can lead to neuropsychiatric disorders.… Continuar lendo Integrative functional genomic analysis of human brain development and neuropsychiatric risks.

Efecto antidepresivo del ejercicio aeróbico.

Ejercicio aeróbico supervisado durante una media de 45 minutos, con intensidad moderada, tres veces a la semana, durante 9,2 semanas evidenció un efecto antidepresivo notable en general, comparado con el efecto de los medicamentos antidepresivos o de las terapias psicológicas. https://www.neurologia.com//noticia/6999/efecto-antidepresivo-del-ejercicio-aerobico Aerobic exercise for adult patients with major depressive disorder in mental health services: A… Continuar lendo Efecto antidepresivo del ejercicio aeróbico.
