Inter-breeder differences in prepulse inhibition deficits of C57BL/6J mice in a maternal infection model for schizophrenia

Y. Kobayashi, Hiroyoshi Inaba, Yuriko Iwakura…·Hiroyuki Nawa

This study shows that maternal infection with Poly(I:C) affects prepulse inhibition in offspring differently depending on the breeder, but not startle response or adaptation.

Promoter activity-based case-control association study on SLC6A4 highlighting hypermethylation and altered amygdala volume in male patients with schizophrenia

Tempei Ikegame, Miki Bundo, Naohiro Okada…·Kazuya Iwamoto

The paper identifies hypermethylation of SLC6A4 in male schizophrenia patients and links it to reduced amygdala volume and 5-HTTLPR genotype.
