Researchers used genetic engineering tools to create a virus that can enter specific neurons and insert into the prefrontal cortex a new genetic code that induces the production of modified proteins. In tests with mice, the alteration of these proteins was sufficient to modify brain activity, indicating a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and autism.
Sometimes referred to as the "executive brain," the prefrontal cortex is the region [...]

Genetic engineering tools helps to understand more about the mechanisms of psychiatric disorders. They helped to create a virus that can enter certain neurons and insert into the prefrontal cortex a new genetic code that induces the production of modified proteins.
The alteration of these proteins could modify brain activity, indicating a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders.

Researchers used genetic engineering instruments to create a virus that may enter particular neurons and insert into the prefrontal cortex a brand new genetic code that induces the manufacturing of modified proteins. In exams with mice, the alteration of those proteins was ample to change mind exercise, indicating a possible biomarker for the prognosis of psychiatric issues resembling schizophrenia and autism.
Generally known as the “govt mind,” the prefrontal cortex is the area [...]

Mediante el empleo de herramientas de la ingeniería genética, científicos crearon un virus con capacidad para entrar en neuronas específicas e insertar en la corteza prefrontal un nuevo código genético, que induce la producción de proteínas modificadas. En pruebas realizadas con ratones, la alteración de dichas proteínas se mostró suficiente como para modificar la actividad cerebral y apuntó [...]

Sometimes referred to as the “executive brain”, the prefrontal cortex is the region that governs higher-level cognitive functions and decision making.
‘Analysis of brain oscillations in genetically modified mice detects asynchronous activity. This could explain the mechanism underlying psychiatric disorders. ‘
Studies of tissue from this brain region in patients with schizophrenia have detected alterations in two proteins: BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) and [...]

Onderzoekers gebruikten genetische manipulatiehulpmiddelen om een virus te creëren dat specifieke neuronen kan binnendringen en in de prefrontale cortex een nieuwe genetische code kan invoegen die de productie van gemodificeerde eiwitten induceert. In tests met muizen was de verandering van deze eiwitten voldoende om de hersenactiviteit te wijzigen, wat duidt op een mogelijke biomarker voor [...]

The neurons and interneurons in the human brain communicate via electrical and chemical signals to activate or inhibit nearby neurons as well as circuits in distant brain regions. The role of interneurons In the same issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, the group published another article on synchronous activity of cortical inhibitory interneurons expressing parvalbumin. “The results show that manipulating BDNF/trkB in adults can alter not only brain activity but also complex behaviors [...]
