P sychiatric genetics is evolving rapidly. No longer are genes thought to directly and by themselves cause psychiatric illnesses. Instead, we now know genes can code for molecules that regulate information processing in behaviorproducing neuronal circuits. When a critical number of molecular abnormalities are present in key brain circuits, individuals with those abnormal circuits are considered...

متن کاملNuclear Architecture and Epigenetics of Lineage Choice
Differentiation is an epigenetic process which is installed by changes of transcriptional programs over successive cellular divisions. A number of studies have reported the effects of biochemical modifications of chromatin (DNA and chromatin proteins) on the regulation of transcription. Although, these studies are able to explain how transcription of a given gene is regulated (toward activation...
متن کاملO10: Deep Brain Stimulation and Psychiatry
The use of deep brain stimulation in psychiatric disorders has received great interest owing to the small risk of the operation, the reversible nature of the technique, and the possibility of optimizing treatment postoperatively. Currently deep brain stimulation in psychiatry is investigated for obsessive-compulsive disorder, Gilles de la Tourette’s syndrome and major depression. This presentat...
