Handwriting analysis indicates spontaneous dyskinesias in neuroleptic naïve adolescents at high risk for psychosis.
Growing evidence suggests that movement abnormalities are a core feature of psychosis. One marker of movement abnormality, dyskinesia, is a result of impaired neuromodulation of dopamine in fronto-striatal pathways. The traditional methods for identifying movement abnormalities include observer-based reports and force stability gauges. The drawbacks of these methods are long training times for ...
متن کاملBdnf Val66met Polymorphism Modulates Sleep Intensity
335 BDNF Genotype and Sleep Intensity—Bachmann et al Moreover, in adult rats, the degree of exploratory behavior predicts the level of BDNF as well as of SWA during subsequent sleep.10 Finally, pharmacological experiments such as injections of exogenous BDNF, an anti-BDNF antibody, and an inhibitor of tyrosine kinase B receptor, the high-affinity BDNF receptor, consistently suggest that this re...
متن کاملBDNF Val66Met Variant and Smoking in a Chinese Population
Several recent studies have supported the hypothesis that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a member of the neurotrophic factor family, might be associated with nicotine addiction. Association studies have also suggested that the BDNF gene might play a role in the susceptibility to nicotine dependence but results appear contradictory. The present work was therefore undertaken to examine...
متن کاملCognition, serum BDNF levels, and BDNF Val66Met polymorphism in type 2 diabetes patients and healthy controls
Background and aims Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is associated with cognitive deficits. However, their pathophysiological mechanisms are still unknown. Recent study suggests that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is correlated with cognitive deficits in T2DM patients. This study was to determine whether altered serum BDNF levels and cognitive deficits depended on the BDNF Val66Met polymorphism...
متن کاملBDNF Val66Met polymorphism and serum concentrations of BDNF with smoking in Thai males.
Many studies have suggested that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is involved in the reward system of addiction, and that nicotine may induce alterations in BDNF gene expression and its protein level within the mesocorticolimbic system. We investigated the BDNF levels and biochemical-hematological parameters of smoker and non-smoker groups, and examined the association of the Val66Met B...
