Similarly, studies of anthropometric traits will likely be confounded by gendered societal pressure for thinness, such that women are exposed to higher rates of bullying, shame, and pressure to lose weight. These factors might account for the brain-specific heritability of body fat percentage in ...

The forward primer 5'-ACAGCCTGACCGTGGAGAAG-3' and reverse primer 5'-GAACGGACGCTCCATTCGGA-3' were used to amplify a fragment that contained the 30-bp repeat uVNTR polymorphisms [18]. PCR was performed in a 25-μl reaction containing 100 ng of genomic DNA, 250 μM of dNTPs, 0.2 μ...

Actually, Fragile Mental Retardation 1 (Fmr1) knock-out (KO) is one of the best preclinical genetic models associated with autistic traits. Altered behaviour in clinical ASD cases and preclinical models is associated with a plethora of functional and morphological changes in the brain. Impairment ...
