People with Down syndrome usually have smaller brain volumes than control groups including significantly smaller cerebellums a portion of the brain involved in motor control.
After a single injection of SAG on the day the mice were born their cerebellums developed normally into adulthood.
Cellular analysis of the cerebellum, amygdala and hippocampus three brain regions known to be altered in autism was vaccinated similar in
#High-res MRI links cerebellum to bipolar disorder A different type of MRI has given researchers an unprecedented look at previously unrecognized differences in the brains of people with bipolar disorder, a new study reports.
Specifically, the findings reveal differences in the white matter of patientsbrains and in the cerebellum, an area of the brain not previously linked with the disorder.
One reason researchers didn know that the cerebellum might be important in bipolar disorder, is because no one chose to look there, says Casey Johnson,
We found focal differences in the cerebellum, which is a region that hasn really been highlighted in the bipolar literature before."
and began to find pieces of evidence that suggested that the cerebellum may function abnormally in bipolar disorder
and that lithium might potentially target the cerebellum and alter glucose levels in this brain region. ur paper,
it causes numerous unpleasant side effects for patients. f lithium effect on the cerebellum is the key to its effectiveness as a mood stabilizer,
then a more targeted treatment that causes the same change in the cerebellum without affecting other systems might be a better treatment for patients with bipolar disorder,
