This study shows that disrupting developmental myelination in the medial prefrontal cortex impairs adult social behavior and PV interneuron function in mice, with parallels in human schizophrenia.

The paper identifies altered layer 1 astrocytes in schizophrenia using spatial and single-nucleus transcriptomics of the anterior cingulate cortex.

The paper constructs a single-cell atlas of transcribed cis-regulatory elements in the human genome, revealing gene regulation patterns and trait-gene relationships across cell populations.

This study shows that high-sucrose diets in Glo1-deficient mice cause brain angiopathy, impaired glucose uptake, and psychosis-related behaviors, with aspirin offering protection.

This study investigates betaine's role in schizophrenia using metabolomics and genetic approaches, finding it may alleviate oxidative stress and improve cognitive function in specific cases.
