Genetic Association Studies of Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder is a common and serious mental illness. The occurrence o f mania is central to the diagnosis, but affected individuals typically also suffer episodes of depression. The results o f family, twin and adoption studies argue convincingly for genetic susceptibility to bipolar disorder. Linkage studies conducted at the Molecular Psychiatry Laboratory, UCL have previously implicated t...
متن کاملBDgene: a genetic database for bipolar disorder and its overlap with schizophrenia and major depressive disorder.
BACKGROUND Bipolar disorder (BD) is a common psychiatric disorder with complex genetic architecture. It shares overlapping genetic influences with schizophrenia (SZ) and major depressive disorder (MDD). Large numbers of genetic studies of BD and cross-disorder studies between BD and SZ/MDD have accumulated numerous genetic data. There is a growing need to integrate the data to provide a compreh...
متن کاملpostnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)
1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...
Molecular linkage studies of bipolar disorder
Linkage studies have defined at least five bipolar (BP) disorder susceptibility loci that meet suggested guidelines for initial identification and subsequent confirmation. These loci, found on 18p11, 18q22, 21q21, 4p16, and Xq26, are targets for BP candidate gene investigations. Molecular dissection of expressed sequences for these regions is likely to yield specific BP susceptibility alleles i...
