Animal Study May Explain Link between Prenatal Infection and Schizophrenia
2011-11-16 06:31:00 New findings show prenatal infection - a known risk factor for schizophrenia - can cause changes in the brain and behavior comparable to certain aspects of schizophrenia. The animal study shows that prenatal infection decreases functioning in key brain chemical receptors vital for long-term memory. The findings were presented at Neuroscience 2011, the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience and the world?s largest source of emerging news about brain science and health. Schizophrenia is thought to reduce the function of proteins important in brain cell communication called N-methyl-D- aspartate receptors (NMDAR). The new study, led by Melissa Burt, at McGill University, suggests prenatal infection could lead to schizophrenia by decreasing NMDAR function. To simulate prenatal infection, the researchers administered a bacterial toxin to pregnant rats. When the offspring reached adolescence, they showed reduced NMDAR function in the hippocampus, a br...

WSU researchers demonstrate rare animal model for studying depression
2011-10-24 17:24:00 Washington State University researchers have taken a promising step toward creating an animal model for decoding the specific brain circuits involved in depression. By electrically stimulating a brain region central to an animal?s primary emotions, graduate student Jason Wright and his advisor Jaak Panksepp saw rats exhibit a variety of behaviors associated with a depressed, negative mood, or affect. ?We might now have a model that allows us to actually know where to look in the brain for changes relevant to depression, and we can monitor how activity in these regions change during states of negative affect and the restoration of positive affect,? says Wright. ?There are no other models out there like this.? The researchers caution that their work comes with a variety of caveats and that there are still many factors that need to be evaluated.

New Animal Man and Frankenstein #1's Coming in September!
2011-06-07 15:13:00 Via Entertainment Weekly this morning....A new Swamp Thing, a new Frankenstein, and more: DC Comics will roll out more new #1s:tDC Comics continues to roll out announcements of new first-issuesfeaturing famous characters and creators in striking combinations. This morning we start off with two highly intriguing combos: Scott Snyder, who?s been doing such strong work on American Vampire, will write a new version of Swamp Thing, and Jeff Lemire, author of one of comics? finest current books, Sweet Tooth, is taking on Animal Man. Since re-workings of Swamp Thing and Animal Man are so closely associated with other, earlier writers (Alan Moore and Grant Morrison, respectively), these re-re-imaginings are bound to be both fascinating and, perhaps inevitably, subjects of debate.Other new supernatural/fantasy/horror-the-med books that will be announced by DC Comics today and scheduled to publish in September include:? Justice League Dark, what DC terms ?a band of supernatural heroes? ? John ...
