    Genetic contributions to changes of fiber tracts of ventral visual stream in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

    Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) represent a population at high risk for develo** schizophrenia, as well as learning disabilities. Deficits in visuo-spatial memory are thought to underlie ...

    Childhood adversity associated with white matter alteration in the corpus callosum, corona radiata, and uncinate fasciculus of psychiatrically healthy adults

    Diffusion tensor imaging studies report childhood adversity (CA) is associated with reduced fractional anisotropy (FA) in multiple white matter tracts in adults. Reduced FA may result from changes in tissue, s...

    The association of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) with hippocampal volume in schizophrenia: a preliminary MRI study

    Matrix metalloproteinases 9 (MMP9) are enzymes involved in regulating neuroplasticity in the hippocampus. This, combined with evidence for disrupted hippocampal structure and function in schizophrenia, has pro...
