Mental disorders may share molecular origins
At a Glance Patterns of gene expression in the brains of people with five major mental disorders suggest some overlapping mechanisms. The findings help provide a framework for understanding the processes that affect the risk for developing mental disorders. Scientists have been exploring patterns of gene activity in the brains of people with mental disorders.kirstypargeter/iStock/ThinkstockI About
Omalizumab improves efficacy of oral immunotherapy for multiple food allergies
Omalizumab improves efficacy of oral immunotherapy for multiple food allergies What Combining a 16-week initial course of the medication omalizumab with oral immunotherapy (OIT) greatly improves the efficacy of OIT for children with allergies to multiple foods, new clinical trial findings show. After 36 weeks, more than 80 percent of children who received omalizumab and OIT could safely consume tw
NIH study identifies brain patterns underlying mothers’ responses to infant cries
NIH study identifies brain patterns underlying mothers’ responses to infant cries Behaviors and brain activity consistent between mothers from different countries. What Infant cries activate specific brain regions related to movement and speech, according to a National Institutes of Health study of mothers in 11 countries. The findings, led by researchers at NIH’s Eunice Kennedy Shriver National I

NIH-funded study points way forward for retinal disease gene therapy
NIH-funded study points way forward for retinal disease gene therapy Benefits for Leber congenital amaurosis peak after one to three years, then diminish. LCA is an inherited disorder that causes vision loss in childhood. It primarily affects the functioning of the retina, the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye, as shown here.National Eye Institute Gene therapy for Leber congenital amau
Repurposed experimental cancer drug restores brain function in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease
Repurposed experimental cancer drug restores brain function in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease NIH-supported research enables clinical trial to explore treatment for most common form of dementia. In a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease, amyloid beta clusters (red) build up among neurons (green) in a memory-related area of the brain.
