A bioinformatic search for correspondence between differentially expressed genes of domestic versus wild animals and orthologous human genes altering reproductive potential by M. P. Ponomarenko, I. V. Chadaeva, P. M. Ponomarenko, A. G. Bogomolov, D. Yu. Oshchepkov, E. B. Sharypova, V. V. Suslov, A. V. Osadchuk, L. V. Osadchuk, Yu. G. Matushkin

“…A genome-wide comparison among humans, several domestic animals, and some of their wild congeners has given rise to the concept of self-domestication syndrome, which includes autism spectrum disorders. In our previous study, we created a bioinformatic model of human self-domestication syndrome using differentially expressed genes (DEGs; of domestic animals versus their wild congeners) orthologous to the human genes (mainly, nervous-system genes) whose changes in expression affect reproductive potential, i.e., growth of the number of humans in the absence of restrictions caused by limiting factors. …”

Beyond metabolic messengers: Bile acids and TGR5 as pharmacotherapeutic intervention for psychiatric disorders by Arief Gunawan Darmanto, Ting-Lin Yen, Jing-Shiun Jan, Tran Thanh Duy Linh, Rajeev Taliyan, Chih-Hao Yang, Joen-Rong Sheu

“…We detail the synthesis and systemic functions of bile acids, their transformation by gut microbiota, and their impact across various neuropsychiatric disorders, including major depressive disorder, general anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, and bipolar disorder. The review highlights how dysbiosis and altered bile acid metabolism contribute to the development and exacerbation of these neuropsychiatric disorders through mechanisms involving inflammation, oxidative stress, and neurotransmitter dysregulation. …”
