Perception and behavior toward neuropsychiatric disorders in Saudi Arabia
This systematic literature review was conducted to examine the most studied neurodevelopmental disorders reported in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and explore public knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
Synaptogenesis: A Key Process in Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
Understanding how synaptogenesis is affected in AD provides essential insights into disease progression and opens avenues for therapeutic intervention.
Structure of human mitochondrial Mg2+ channel Mrs2
Mrs2 is a mitochondrial Mg2+ channel that is essential for metabolic function. We determined cryo-EM structures of human Mrs2 under different conditions, revealing a novel molecular mechanism of Mg2+ permeation through Mrs2.
Structure of human ZAC channel
ZAC is a Zn2+ and H⁺-activated cation channel and a critical target for neuropsychiatric drugs. we report the structures of human ZAC, providing insights into the gating and activation mechanisms of ZAC.
Enabling FAIR Data in Language Cognition: Introducing HED LANG.
FAIR data principles are transforming research by ensuring data is findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. In our recent work, we introduce HED LANG, a new standard that empowers cognitive language researchers to annotate and share their data in a FAIR and machine-actionable way.
Aging-dependent loss of functional connectivity in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease and reversal by mGluR5 modulator
Alzheimer’s disease is challenging to tackle: it can affect the brain years before symptoms like memory loss arise. Yet, this slow progress gives us a long window where early detection could slow or stop its progression. Our study dives into how brain imaging and mouse models can help us get there.
