MAP1B reveals unexpected role for cytoskeletal proteins in brain development
The cytoskeleton gives cells their shape and helps them move. Researchers at Helmholtz Munich and Ludwig Maximilian University now show that, in neural stem cells, proteins of the cytoskeleton are also found in the cell nucleus, where they can influenc…

Gene therapy shows promise in ARC syndrome, a deadly childhood liver disease
A new gene therapy has been used to successfully treat a deadly childhood liver disease in mice that model the disease, according to researchers at UCL and Great Ormond Street Hospital. Arthrogryposis, renal dysfunction and cholestasis (ARC) syndrome i…

How sleep and AQP4 gene variants may jointly shape early Alzheimer’s brain changes
New research from Edith Cowan University has discovered an important link between genes and sleep habits, suggesting they work together to influence early brain and cognitive changes associated with Alzheimer’s disease long before symptoms appear. The …

Link between genetics and BMI has become stronger since rise in obesity rates, study finds
People who carry genetic variations linked to obesity are more likely to be heavier now than individuals with the same variants who were born before the recent obesity epidemic. Liam Wright of University College London and colleagues report these findi…
