Psychiatric scientists at The Zucker Hillside Hospital campus of The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research have uncovered evidence of a gene that appears to influence intelligence. Working in conjunction with scientists at Harvard Partners Center for Genetics and Genomics in Boston, the Zucker Hillside team examined the genetic blueprints of individuals with schizophrenia, a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by cognitive impairment, and compared them with healthy volunteers. They discovered that the dysbindin-1 gene (DTNBP1), which they previously demonstrated to be associated with schizophrenia, may also be linked to general cognitive ability. The study is reported in the May 15 print issue of Human Molecular Genetics, available online today, April 27.

"A robust body of evidence suggests that cognitive abilities, especially intelligence, are significantly influenced by genetic factors. Existing data already suggests that dysbindin may influence cognition," said Katherine Burdick, PhD, the study's primary author. "We looked at several DNA sequence variations within the dysbindin gene and found one of them to be significantly associated with lower general cognitive ability in carriers of the risk variant compared with non-carriers in two independent groups."

Compare health insurance costs

Are instant insurance quotes as good as the ones you would get by sitting down in your neighborhood insurance agency? Yes, as long as you're truthful and accurate as you fill out your online application. If you lie about your tobacco use, hide that your hobby is hang gliding, or conceal a pre-existing illness, the insurance company may refuse to pay your claims. Insurance comparison websites work with many different insurance companies and they do not receive commissions for steering you toward one particular company or plan. So you can be assured that the quotes you receive are impartial and accurate................Go to healthQuotesSite
