Journal ArticleDOI

Human Hippocampal Neurogenesis Persists throughout Aging

TL;DR: It is possible that ongoing hippocampal neurogenesis sustains human-specific cognitive function throughout life and that declines may be linked to compromised cognitive-emotional resilience.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antidepressants increase neural progenitor cells in the human hippocampus

TL;DR: The increase of NPCs and dividing cells in MDDT was localized to the rostral DG, and whether this finding is critical or necessary for the antidepressants effect remains to be determined.
Journal ArticleDOI

A serotonin transporter gene promoter polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) and prefrontal cortical binding in major depression and suicide.

TL;DR: A diffuse reduction of 5-HTT binding in the PFC of individuals with major depression may reflect a widespread impairment of serotonergic function consistent with the range of psychopathologic features in major depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Localized alterations in pre- and postsynaptic serotonin binding sites in the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex of suicide victims

TL;DR: In this article, the changes in presynaptic and postsynaptic serotonin receptors and identifying an area of prefrontal cortex that may influence suicide risk were identified. But, the results were limited to the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abnormalities of myelination in schizophrenia detected in vivo with MRI, and post-mortem with analysis of oligodendrocyte proteins

TL;DR: In healthy subjects, myelin water fraction in total white matter and in frontal white matter increased with age, and with years of education, indicating ongoing maturation, and in patients with schizophrenia, neither relation was statistically significant.
