Abstract: ABSTRACT Alcohol use disorder and depression are highly comorbid, and both conditions exhibit important sexual dimorphisms. Here, we aimed to investigate voluntary alcohol consumption after 6 weeks of chronic mild stress (CMS) in Wistar rats… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.821026
Abstract: Post transcriptional modifications of RNA are powerful mechanisms by which eukaryotes expand their genetic diversity. For instance, researchers estimate that most transcripts in humans undergo alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation. These splicing events produce distinct… read more here.
