Schizophrenia Gene Networks and Pathways and Their Applications for Novel Candidate Gene Selection
BACKGROUND Schizophrenia (SZ) is a heritable, complex mental disorder. We have seen limited success in finding causal genes for schizophrenia from numerous conventional studies. Protein interaction network and pathway-based analysis may provide us an alternative and effective approach to investigating the molecular mechanisms of schizophrenia. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We selected a list...
متن کاملGene- and evidence-based candidate gene selection for schizophrenia and gene feature analysis
OBJECTIVE Schizophrenia is a chronic psychiatric disorder that affects about 1% of the population globally. A tremendous amount of effort has been expended in the past decade, including more than 2400 association studies, to identify genes influencing susceptibility to the disorder. However, few genes or markers have been reliably replicated. The wealth of this information calls for an integrat...
متن کاملSelection, gene interaction, and flexible gene networks.
Recent results from a variety of different kinds of experiments, mainly using behavior as an assay, and ranging from laboratory selection experiments to gene interaction studies, show that a much wider range of genes can affect phenotype than those identified as "core genes" in classical mutant screens. Moreover, very pleiotropic genes can produce specific phenotypes when mild variants are comb...
متن کاملDesigning an Engineered Construct Gene Sensitive to Carbohydrate In-vitro and Candidate for Human Insulin Gene Therapy In-vivo
Background and Aim: Diabetes is a common disorder worldwide, and exhaustive efforts have been made to cure this disease. Gene therapy has considered as a potential curative method that has more stability in comparison with the other pharmaceutical methods. However, the application of gene therapy as a definitive treatment demands further investigation. This study aim is to prepare a suitable hi...
