New research from King's College London and South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust has shown that genetic load for schizophrenia and frequent use of cannabis have independent links to the likelihood of developing ... Dec 6, 2024 1 100 Genetics Genetic risk for schizophrenia linked to...
Data was obtained from n = 60 participants, of whom n = 31 were patients with chronic treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) recruited from the NHS Clozapine Clinic in Cambridge. Inclusion criteria for the TRS group were (1) age 18–65 years, (2) no major physical or substance u...
which avoids some potential confounds such as agonal status and cause of death that may affect brain pH and protein and mRNA levels in post-mortem approaches30. Moreover, [11C]UCB-J has shown good test–retest reproducibility, indicating it is a reliable imaging tool44. Our main ...
Cells were then washed three times with solution A (see below) and incubated with 1.5 mg/mL EZ Link Sulfo-NHS-SS Biotin (Life Technologies) for 20 min at 4 °C. The labeling reaction was quenched with 3 × 5 min BSA/L-lysine solution, and the cell preparation washed...
A general linear model was used to test FA differences between the schizophrenia and control groups, with age as a covariate. Threshold-free cluster enhancement (TFCE) was applied to a permutation analysis with 10,000 random permutations to correct for multiple comparisons [55]. ...
Conversely, free radicals can increase the concentration of glutamate in the synaptic cleft by the release of glutamate or blockade of its re-uptake. In particular, oxidative stress reduces the uptake of glutamate in astrocytes, a key step in the recycling of glutamate [16]. This potentially ...
Samples were blocked for 1 h with 10% normal horse serum (NHS; Abcam) in Tris-buffered saline containing 0.5% (v/v) Triton X-100, pH 7.4 (TBSTx). Fixed cells were further incubated overnight in 1% NHS in TBSTx with rabbit anti-GFAP (diluted 1:500; Dako-Agilent, Santa Clara, ...

Still, none of the applied tests (Table 1), nor any currently available test, can predict the capacity for differentiation towards distinct neuronal tissues and cell types that are at the focus of case/control studies. Differences in the (neural) differentiation capacity of human embryonic stem ...
Numerous molecular substrates, responsible for the imbalance in homeostatic signaling, should be used to discover validated biomarkers or biomarker test in schizophrenia. Therefore, the future use of diagnostic, prognostic and theranostic biomarkers will improve diagnosis, therapy monitoring, and prediction ...
