Genetic mutation in OXR1 gene linked to brain development issues

Study investigates the effects of a loss-of-function mutation in the OXR1 gene on neurodevelopment and cellular functions in the human brain. The research shows that OXR1 deficiency impairs neural differentiation, increases sensitivity to oxidative stress, and alters histone methylation, impacting brain development and potentially contributing to neurological disorders.

The potential of polyunsaturated fatty acids in alleviating depression and reducing suicide risk

Research in 'Molecular Psychiatry' explores the role of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) in major depressive disorder (MDD) and suicide risk, showing mixed results in clinical trials for depression treatment. The study underscores the need for further investigation into LC-PUFAs' neurobiology to advance personalized medicine for mood disorders and suicide prevention.
