Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer and accounts for the second
leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women in the United States. 1 Given that 1 in 8 …

The hippocampus formation, although prominently implicated in schizophrenia pathogenesis,
has been overlooked in large-scale genomics efforts in the schizophrenic brain. We …

Most studies of gene expression in the brains of individuals with schizophrenia have focused
on cortical regions, but subcortical nuclei such as the striatum are prominently implicated in …

The sacred texts of five world religions (Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism)
use similar belief systems to set limits on sexual behavior. We propose that this similarity …

Recent genetic studies have identified variants associated with bipolar disorder (BD), but it
remains unclear how brain gene expression is altered in BD and how genetic risk for BD may …

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are a powerful model of neural differentiation
and maturation. We present a hiPSC transcriptomics resource on corticogenesis from 5 …

Specific cell populations may have unique contributions to schizophrenia but may be missed
in studies of homogenate tissue. Here laser capture microdissection followed by RNA …

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is genetically heterogeneous with convergent
symptomatology, suggesting common dysregulated pathways. In this study, we analyzed brain …

Recent work has underscored the importance of membrane trafficking events during cytokinesis.
For example, targeted membrane secretion occurs at the cleavage furrow in animal cells…

Background RNA sequencing offers advantages over other quantification methods for
microRNA (miRNA), yet numerous biases make reliable quantification challenging. Previous …
