Gene × Environment Interactions in Schizophrenia: Evidence from Genetic Mouse Models
The study of gene × environment, as well as epistatic interactions in schizophrenia, has provided important insight into the complex etiopathologic basis of schizophrenia. It has also increased our understanding of the role of susceptibility genes in the disorder and is an important consideration as we seek to translate genetic advances into novel antipsychotic treatment targets. This review su...
متن کاملCandidate gene-environment interactions.
One of the limitations of interdisciplinarity is the misunderstanding regarding specific words and concepts from one discipline to the other ( ). One way to circumvent this aspect is to incorporate the vocabulary of other disciplines, when it corresponds to the appropriate 1 concept. Gene environment interaction is a popular topic, for which there has been to date, more reviews than established...

doi: 10.1289/ehp.10217 In their otherwise informative and concise review of the current state of evidence concerning risk factors for acute childhood leukemia, Belson et al. (2007) did not correctly address nonionizing radiation and, in particular, power frequency magnetic fields as a possible risk factor for childhood leukemia. This failure may be due to a widespread misconception about the ev...
متن کاملXIII Gene–Environment Interactions
Most genetic-epidemiological approaches used in the study of the aetiology of individual differences in psychiatric disease in humans assume that the effects of genes and environment are additive. That is, it is assumed that the effect of an environmental risk factor does not depend on the genotype of the individual, or, stated differently, that the expression of the genotype does not depend on...
متن کاملA Comparison of Case-Control and Case-Only Designs to Investigate Gene-Environment Interactions Using Breast Cancer Data
Background: The traditional methods of studying the gene-environment interactions need a control group. However, the selection of an appropriate control group has been associated with problems. Therefore, new methods, such as case-only design, have been created to study such interactions. The objective of this study was to compare the case-only and case-control designs using data from patients ...
