A new Nature Genetics study has identified excitatory neurons and microglia in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex as key cell types carrying genetic risk for major depression. By mapping chromatin ...

A traditionally overlooked type of RNA plays an important role in promoting resilience to depression-but only in females. According to a new study led by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, ...

For decades, scientists have known that major depressive disorder (MDD) has a genetic component. But the question remained: ...

A new Nature Genetics study has identified excitatory neurons and microglia in the prefrontal cortex as key brain cell types linked to genetic risk for major depression. Researchers mapped chromatin ...

Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...
