GWAS meta-analysis reveals novel loci and genetic correlates for general cognitive function: a report from the COGENT consortium

Joey W. Trampush, +80 more
- 17 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: Common variation across the genome resulted in a conservatively estimated SNP heritability of 21.5% for general cognitive function, which provides new insight into the genetics of neurocognitive function with relevance to understanding the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric illness.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Evaluation of the Evidence that Methamphetamine Abuse Causes Cognitive Decline in Humans

TL;DR: The preponderance of the data does support the possibility that MA abuse causes cognitive decline, of unknown duration, in at least some users of the drug, when averaged across individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of the NMDA receptor by redox phenomena: inhibitory role of ascorbate.

TL;DR: Redox phenomena seem to modulate activity of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, which abolishes the ability of reductants to alter function of the NMDA receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mega-Analysis of Gray Matter Volume in Substance Dependence: General and Substance-Specific Regional Effects

Scott Mackey, +59 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that dependence on a range of different substances shares a common neural substrate and that differential patterns of regional volume could serve as useful biomarkers of dependence on alcohol and nicotine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of nicotine on brain activation during performance of a working memory task

TL;DR: The lateralization of activation as a function of nicotine dependence suggests that chronic exposure to nicotine or withdrawal from nicotine affects cognitive strategies used to perform the memory task.
