Gene Therapy Reverses Effects of Autism-Linked Mutation in Human Brain Organoids
Publicado em 04 maio 2022
University of California San Diego (UCSD) study uses lab-grown human brain tissue to identify neural abnormalities in Pitt-Hopkins Syndrome and test gene therapy tools.
In a study published on May 02, 2022, in the journal Nature Communications, scientists at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine used human brain organoids to discover how a genetic mutation associated with a severe form of autism disrupts neural development. Using gene therapy tools to recover the [...]

Gene Therapy Reverses Effects of Autism-Linked Mutation in Brain Organoids
Publicado em 04 maio 2022In a study published May 02, 2022 in Nature Communications, scientists at University of California San Diego School of Medicine used human brain organoids to reveal how a genetic mutation associated with a profound form of autism disrupts neural development. Using gene therapy tools to recover the gene’s function effectively rescued neural structure and function. Several neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and schizophrenia have been [...]ver notícia -

Quantum phase transition discovered in a quasi-2D system consisting purely of spins – Phys.org
Publicado em 13 julho 2021Pure quantum systems can undergo phase transitions analogous to the classical phase transition between the liquid and gaseous states of water. At the quantum level, however, the particle spins in states that emerge from phase transitions display collective… Click here to view the original article.ver notícia -

Vegan and omnivorous diets promote equivalent muscle mass gain, study shows
Publicado em 21 maio 2021Protein intake is more important than protein source if the goal is to gain muscle strength and mass. This is the key finding of a study that compared the effects of strength training in volunteers with a vegan or omnivorous diet, both with protein content considered adequate. In the study, which was conducted by researchers at the University of São Paulo (USP) in Brazil, 38 healthy young adults, half of whom were vegans and half omnivores, were monitored for 12 weeks. In addition to [...]ver notícia -
Cognitive, behavioral therapy may produce more significant outcomes for obese people
Publicado em 20 maio 2021Quality of life relating to physical and mental health can be a key element in the treatment of obese adults. For this reason, interdisciplinary clinical measures including cognitive and behavioral therapy may produce more significant outcomes for these people, reducing not just weight but also symptoms of depression. This is the main conclusion of a study conducted in Brazil by the Obesity Research Group at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) in Santos, São Paulo [...]ver notícia -
