RTN Hyperactivity Drives Autism-Like Behaviors in Mice, Reversible by Epilepsy Drug
Stanford Medicine researchers discovered that hyperactivity in the reticular thalamic nucleus (RTN) of mice lacking the Cntnap2 gene drives autism-like behaviors, reversible by Z944, an experimental epilepsy drug, suggesting a shared pathophysiology and potential treatment.

Human Brain Tissue Mimics Alzheimer's, Accelerating Cure Search
British scientists used living human brain tissue from cancer patients undergoing surgery to model the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, exposing it to amyloid beta proteins and observing its inability to repair the damage; this breakthrough accelerates drug testing and enhances prospects for a c...
