Example Sentences

By examining genes whose expression is influenced by Ppd-1, Dr Boden's research team discovered two transcription factors that can be edited to influence the number and arrangement of grain-bearing spikelets that form on a wheat ear, as well as the timing of ear emergence.

"The knowledge gained will inform breeders about gene targets of Ppd-1, for which we can use genetic diversity to design genotypes that might yield better."

The team's findings, first published online Apr. 11, 2024, in Nature Mental Health, also suggest that current drug treatments for PPD in people may, in some cases, be less effective at targeting the relevant chemical imbalances in the brain, and that alternative methods may be more beneficial.

According to previous studies, an estimated one-third of psychiatric conditions fail to respond to current therapies, and "PPD is difficult to treat," says study senior author Akira Sawa, M.D.,

"The new study results add to evidence that patients with PPD are not all the same, and more individualized diagnosis and treatment -- a precision medicine approach -- is needed."
