MicroRNA May Be the Cause of “Voices” in the Schizophrenic Head

Quieting the “voices” and other hallucinations of schizophrenia should be focused on targeting specific microRNAs (miRNAs) that disrupt the normal flow of information along neural pathways, this according to new research from investigators at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The scientists identified a particular miRNA molecule that may be essential to restoring normal function in the brain circuit associated schizophrenia, and they are hopeful that their results will open poss
