The fecal microbiota transplantation from drug-naive schizophrenia patients distinctively changes gut microbiome and metabolic profiles in male and female mice

Raghunath Singh, Sandra Pereira, Kristoffer J. Panganiban…·Margaret Hahn

This study uses fecal microbiota transplantation from schizophrenia patients in mice to show sex-specific effects on gut microbiome and metabolic profiles, particularly insulin resistance and short-chain fatty acid changes in females.

Protective effects of central leptin on whole-body energy homeostasis upon acute olanzapine exposure

Roshanak Asgariroozbehani, Raghunath Singh, Sally Wu…·Margaret Hahn

This study investigates how central leptin affects energy homeostasis and metabolism in rats exposed to olanzapine, finding that leptin's effects on food intake and fat oxidation are not blocked by olanzapine.
