Depression
Scientists identify specific brain cells linked to depression
Riportato dall'IA
Researchers at McGill University and the Douglas Institute have pinpointed two types of brain cells altered in people with depression. Using advanced genomic analysis on post-mortem brain tissue, they found genetic disruptions in excitatory neurons and microglia. The findings, published in Nature Genetics, could lead to more targeted treatments for the condition affecting over 264 million people worldwide.
