While on the drug, blood pressure dropped, and the differences were significant between the medication and placebo phases, Feig says.

Feig and colleagues randomly assigned thirty participants to receive either allopurinol or placebo twice daily for four weeks.

The paper described an experiment with mice led by Larry Feig, a Tufts University biochemist.

"When you look at offspring, they still have the defect in the protein, but they also have normal LTP, " says Feig.

"This is a protective mechanism a mother passes on to her offspring, " Feig, who helped lead the study, added.
