Trichostatin A for Alzheimer’s: 8 Core Genes, Unstable Binding

MHD featured image for Trichostatin A and Alzheimer's disease gene networks.

A 2026 PLOS One computational study linked Trichostatin A to 949 predicted targets and 8 machine-learning-selected Alzheimer’s disease core genes, but 100 ns molecular dynamics simulations suggested the compound did not stably bind those candidate proteins.1 That makes the result more useful as an epigenetic network hypothesis than as evidence for a near-term Alzheimer’s drug. …

Abnormal Glutamate Biomarkers in ADHD: CDK5, MAP2, GKAP, PSD95 (2023 Study)

Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that has puzzled researchers and clinicians for decades. Recent studies have begun to unravel the intricate relationship between ADHD and the glutamatergic system, a major neurotransmitter pathway in the brain. A newer study evaluated the roles of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5), microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP2), guanylate kinase-associated …
