Schizophrenia gene's role may be broader, more potent, than thought
Scientists have known that the mutated form of the human gene – one of three consistently associated with schizophrenia – mildly disrupts the transmission of chemical signals between nerve cells in th...

"Age-related hearing loss is a very common symptom of aging in humans, and also is universal among mammal species, and it's one of the earliest detectable sensory changes in aging," say...
Health and Medicine | Read moreCircadian surprise: A heat sensor for body-clock synchronization
Although much is known about how light affects the body clock - also known at the circadian clock - it is not well understood which cells or organs sense daily temperature changes or how temperature s...
Life Sciences | Read moreNew 'schizophrenia gene' prompts researchers to test potential drug target
The rescue, described as “surprisingly complete” by the researchers, was accomplished with rapamycin, a drug known to act on a protein called mTOR whose role involves the production of other proteins....
