A global collaboration involving University of Manchester scientists has discovered a gene whose variants potentially cause neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in hundreds of thousands of people ...
The findings will improve clinical diagnostic services for patients with neurodevelopmental disorders. Through rigorous genetic analysis, the researchers discovered that mutations in a small ...
A seminal study from researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and their collaborators in the United Kingdom, Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, and Iceland has uncovered a new genetic ...
The Lurie Autism Institute presented its $100,000 award to Huda Zoghbi, a professor at the Baylor College of Medicine and the director of the Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children’s ...
Mutations (blue) in U2 snRNA cause a neurodevelopmental disorder about one-fifth as common as the RNU4-2/ReNU disorder, which is linked to mutations (orange) in U4 snRNA. snRNAs are shown in black, ...
Children with neurodevelopmental disorders report congenital abnormalities, such as defects of the heart and/or urinary tract, at least ten times more frequent compared to other children. This is one ...
The debate on nature versus nurture has never ceased, particularly in discussions about neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs) such as autism and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). These ...
A research group led by the University of Osaka has discovered that the DNA repair enzyme Polβ plays a crucial role in protecting the developing brain from harmful mutations. The study found that a ...
Microglia are shown in red, and CD11c-positive cells in green. Scale bar = 100 µm. A research group led by Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine in Japan has uncovered a potential mechanism ...
