Journal ArticleDOI

Kv1.1 null mice have enlarged hippocampus and ventral cortex

TL;DR: Total absence of Kv1.1 can induce excessive overgrowth of hippocampus and ventral cortex in mice with a BALB/cByJ background, while mice with one wild type Kv 1.1 allele develop normal-sized brains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigating polygenic burden in age at disease onset in bipolar disorder: Findings from an international multicentric study

Janos Kalman, +159 more
- 01 Feb 2019 - 
TL;DR: It is evaluated whether an increased polygenic burden of BD‐ and schizophrenia (SCZ)‐associated risk variants is associated with an earlier AAO in BD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human adenovirus-36 is uncommon in type 2 diabetes and is associated with increased insulin sensitivity in adults in Sweden

TL;DR: Adv36 infection is associated with lower occurrence of type 2 diabetes and better insulin sensitivity in adults, particularly among females, and within the female prediabetes group Adv36 seropositivity was associated with higher insulin sensitivity reflected by reduced HOMA-IR and increased IGFBP-1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of a synbiotic on symptoms, and daily functioning in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder - A double-blind randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: While no definite Synbiotic 2000-specific effect was detected, the analysis of those with elevated plasma sVCAM-1 levels proposed a reduction of autism symptoms in children and an improvement of emotion regulation in adults with ADHD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuropeptide Y: identification of a novel rat mRNA splice-variant that is downregulated in the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex of a depression-like model.

TL;DR: Gene expression analyses in five brain regions of an outbred rat strain supported the presence of the "short" Npy transcript in all examined regions and showed that it is expressed in ∼2.4-fold lower levels than the "long"Npy mRNA, and sequencing of the 5' RACE products revealed a transcription start site of Npy that is different from the currently annotated position.
