A genome-wide CRISPR study maps 331 genes essential for early brain development, identifying PEDS1 as a new ...

Disrupting maternal gut-immune axis perturbed immune networks in developing mouse brains, revealing potential mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders.

For 30 years, Cheryl Rosenfeld has studied how biological information gets transferred from mothers to babies during pregnancy. The research is personal for Rosenfeld, whose niece, Sara, was exposed ...

Which genes are required for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, and what happens when this process goes wrong? In ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare condition that's difficult to treat. The hallmarks of the disease—narrowing of the arterioles and capillaries that deliver blood to the lungs—force the ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Our previous studies with estrogen receptor β knockout ($ER\beta^{-/-}$) mice demonstrated that ERβ is ...

Exposure to maternal immune activation (MIA) in utero is a risk factor for neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. MIA-induced deficits in adolescent and adult offspring have been well ...

In a recent study published in Molecular Metabolism, researchers evaluated the impact of Bifidobacterium breve's presence in the maternal gut during pregnancy on fetal brain metabolism. Study: ...

For several years, researchers studied human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to understand the unique features of these pluripotent cells, but on their own, they poorly resembled the complex structures ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...
