Researchers studying a rare genetic condition tied to high psychosis risk have found that the brain’s waste-clearing plumbing ...

Researchers link glymphatic system (brain waste-clearance) dysfunction in childhood to the future development of psychosis and chemical imbalances.

How can the onset of psychotic symptoms characteristic of schizophrenia be explained? Despite their major and often irreversible impact on intellectual abilities and autonomy, the biological ...

How can we explain the onset of psychotic symptoms characteristic of schizophrenia? Despite their major and often irreversible impact on intellectual abilities and autonomy, the biological mechanisms ...

Researchers are closer to solving the puzzle of a complex neurological condition called 15q13.3 microdeletion syndrome. Individuals with this condition are missing a small piece of chromosome 15 that ...

Purpose: The advent of molecular cytogenetic technologies has altered the means by which new microdeletion syndromes are identified. Whereas the cytogenetic basis of microdeletion syndromes has ...

Researchers have revealed a novel association between chromosome 18q deletion syndrome and late-onset combined immunodeficiency (LOCID). Their finding challenges the previously held notion that 18q ...

The DiGeorge syndrome, the most common of the microdeletion syndromes, affects multiple organs, including the heart, the nervous system, and the kidney. It is caused by deletions on chromosome 22q11.2 ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute (Duncan NRI) at Texas Children's Hospital, Baylor Genetics and collaborating institutions provided a ...
