Anticipated brain molecular aging in major depression.
OBJECTIVES Brain molecular aging, the pervasive and consistent transcriptome changes associated with normal brain aging, appears to overlap with disease pathways and may be anticipated in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, including major depressive disorder (MDD). Here, we characterize the global interaction of MDD-related gene changes with age, starting from our previous report ...
متن کاملDepression and the aging brain.
impaCt of aging on the epidemiology of depression Depressive disorders among the elderly are a disabling illness that can result in death and need to be properly diagnosed and treated by clinicians. Although the rates of depressive disorders are lower in the elderly than in younger cohorts, prevalence rates are still high and accounts for nearly two percent of all disability in those over 60. R...
متن کاملMolecular Signatures of Major Depression
Adversity, particularly in early life, can cause illness. Clues to the responsible mechanisms may lie with the discovery of molecular signatures of stress, some of which include alterations to an individual's somatic genome. Here, using genome sequences from 11,670 women, we observed a highly significant association between a stress-related disease, major depression, and the amount of mtDNA (p ...
متن کاملPredicting major depression in brain tumor patients.
Very few studies have been performed utilizing DSM criteria to diagnose major depressive disorder (MDD) in adult brain tumor patients. This study aimed to diagnose MDD in this population using DSM-IV criteria.Eighty-nine adult brain tumor patients were examined in an ambulatory neuro-oncology clinic setting using a structured psychiatric interview which followed current DSM-IV diagnostic criter...
متن کاملMolecular aging of the brain, neuroplasticity, and vulnerability to depression and other brain-related disorders
The increased risk for neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders associated with extended lifespan has long suggested mechanistic links between chronological age and brain-related disorders, including depression, Recent characterizations of age-dependent gene expression changes now show that aging of the human brain engages a specific set of biological pathways along a continuous lifelon...
