- The genetic basis of extreme cognitive plasticity in human innovators remains poorly characterized. Here, we demonstrate that the genomic architecture underlying scientific innovation significantly overlaps with the polygenic risks for neuropsychiatric phenotypes, such as schizophrenia. Utilizing a comparative genomic approach across psychiatric cohorts (PGC) and the UK Biobank (Scientific Creativity), we identify a coordinated "Vanguard Engine" consisting of hyper-tuned voltage-gated calcium channels ( ), glutamatergic receptors ( ), synaptic plasticity regulators ( ), and the core linguistic-symbolic coordinator ( ). We posit that these variants establish a high-voltage neural environment optimized for associative divergence. Furthermore, we characterize the and loci as critical metabolic governors against thermal overload and identify structural variance in as the epigenetic clamp linking ancestral fuel availability (β-hydroxybutyrate) directly to the transcriptional control of this plasticity network. We conclude that psychiatric pathology is an emergent property of a fuel-mismatch, wherein a high-performance cognitive architecture is sustained by a carbohydrate-heavy diet, leading to systemic thermodynamic failure. This framework provides a unified, mechanistic explanation for the spectrum between extreme cognitive innovation and pathological collapse. - Source: PubMed

Krantz Bryan A - The purpose of this study is to clarify the role of LINC01094 in acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and to explore its potential molecular mechanisms. A total of 121 patients with ACI and 133 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. The expression levels of LINC01094, miR-499a-5p, and inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6) were measured using RT-qPCR. The levels of MDA, SOD, and ROS were measured using commercial assay kits. The diagnostic value of LINC01094 for ACI was evaluated using ROC curve analysis. CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry were utilized to measure cell viability and apoptosis. The subcellular localization of LINC01094 in SH-SY5Y cells was determined. The predicted targeting relationship between LINC01094 and miR-499a-5p was validated using dual-luciferase reporter (DLR) and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays. Serum LINC01094 expression was significantly elevated in ACI patients and demonstrated diagnostic value for ACI. miR-499a-5p expression was markedly reduced in both ACI patients and in vitro/in vivo models, showing a significant negative correlation with LINC01094 expression in patients. Downregulation LINC01094 mitigated OGD/R-induced damage in SH-SY5Y cells and cerebral injury in MCAO rats, while inhibition miR-499a-5p reversed this protective effect. Furthermore, CACNB2 was confirmed as a direct target of miR-499a-5p. LINC01094 participates in the pathological process of ACI injury by competitively binding to and inhibiting the activity of miR-499a-5p. These findings suggest that LINC01094 may serve as a potential therapeutic target for ACI treatment. - Source: PubMed

Current therapeutic strategies fail to restore lost myocardium or regenerate damaged cardiac tissue. Identifying dysregulated contractility-related genes may reveal actionable targets for stem cell engineering, iPSC-derived cardiomyocyte design, and tissue regeneration aimed at restoring myocardial contractility and function. - Source: PubMed
