But we thought! All genes, genes … nothing to do with Vasya
Shiza mows our ranks! Actually, we knew very well (without even casting a critical glance at the drooping muzzles and dull eyes of our politicians), but did not know why and how it arises. But the scientists from the Langone Medical Center at the University of New York, don't be fools - they took it and explained it! It turns out that the whole thing is in the genes, or rather, their mutations …
To conduct research, the research group invited 48 people from different countries ("Boys and girls") with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, as well as their parents ("Ta-ra-tara-tam" - "Yeralash" some!.. "- approx. By examining different sets of symptoms, scientists have found that brain function has been impaired by rare or previously unknown mutations in four genes, and now we have a much better understanding of where and where legs grow!
Changes in the PTPRG gene affect the early development of severe psychosis. Despite the relatively high level of intelligence, patients experience the problem of insufficient working memory, which stores relevant information. Another gene, SLC39SA13, reduces the ability to learn and reduces the range of emotions experienced.
The ARMS / KIDINS220 gene encodes a protein that regulates the growth of nerve cells. Patients who were found to have a mutation in this gene were more prone to degeneration.
Changes in the fourth gene, TGM5, cause Huntington's disease, a symptom of which is uncontrolled movement.
It turns out that the deputies of the Verkhovna Rada, whatever one may say, have all this rich and incredibly valuable set !!! Mutants, damn it, some …
“Different manifestations of schizophrenia are often trying to unify and bring them under the framework of one disease,” says the head of the study Dolores Malaspina. “Our study provides biologically-based answers to the long-standing question of why multiple people with the same diagnosis may manifest a disease differently. In addition, we have developed our own scientific method that improves the search for dominant genes in complex diseases from schizophrenia to autism."
