Social behavior and spatial orientation in rat strains with genetic predisposition to catatonia (GC) and stereotypes (PM) by V. S. Plekanchuk, O. I. Prokudina, M. A. Ryazanova

“…Catatonia is a psychomotor syndrome in which motor excitement, stereotypy, stuporous state, including the phenomenon of “waxy flexibility” (catalepsy), can be observed. Rats with genetic catatonia (GC) and pendulum-like movements (PM) of the anterior half of the body have physiological and behavioral changes similar to those observed in schizophrenia and depression in humans and can be considered as incomplete experimental models of these pathologies. …”

Association of PD-1 and PD-L1 Genetic Polymorphyisms with Type 1 Diabetes Susceptibility by Chenyue Qian, Heming Guo, Xiaohong Chen, Aiming Shi, Sicheng Li, Xin Wang, Jie Pan, Chen Fang

“…Accumulated studies showed that PD-1/PD-L1 pathway was involved in the development of type 1 diabetes (T1DM). Since the genetic background of type 1 diabetes differs greatly among the different population, we aim to investigate the association of genetic polymorphisms in PD-1 and PD-L1 with T1DM susceptibility in Chinese population. …”
