چکیده
Context: Despite recent progress in describing the common neural circuitry of emotion and stress processing, the bases of individual variation are less well understood. Genetic variants that underlie psychiatric disease have proven particularly difficult to elucidate. Functional genetic variation of neuropeptide Y (NPY) was recently identified as a source of individual differences in emotion. Low NPY levels have been reported in major depressive disorder (MDD).

متن کاملNeuropeptide Y (NPY) gene: Impact on emotional processing and treatment response in anxious depression.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been found to play a role in the pathomechanism of both anxiety and depression. Thus, NPY is a promising candidate in the investigation of the clinical phenotype of "anxious depression". Five NPY gene variants were investigated for an influence on antidepressant treatment response in a sample of 256 patients with depression. Additionally, NPY gene impact on amygdala act...
متن کاملAssociation of the leucine-7 to proline-7 variation in the signal sequence of neuropeptide Y with major depression.
OBJECTIVE There is clear evidence of a genetic component in major depression, and several studies indicate that neuropeptide Y (NPY) could play an important role in the pathophysiology of the disease. A well-known polymorphism encoding the substitution of leucine to proline in the signal peptide sequence of NPY (Leu7Pro variation) was previously found to protect against depression. Our study ai...

This research was conducted to examine the efficacy of emotion focused therapy on the severity of depression in patients with major depression. emotion focused therapy as a neo-humanistic approach, by integrating and up-to-dating person-centered, gestalt, and existential therapies, and focusing on emotional processing gathered a good deal of experimental supports abroad. In this single-case des...
متن کاملThe Efficacy of Emotion Regulation Therapy in Attention Control, Mindfulness and Reappraisal of Patients with Generalized Anxiety Disorder Comorbid with Major Depression
Introduction: Various studies indicate that generalized anxiety disorder has a high comorbidity with major depression disorder. Emotion dysregulation plays an important role in onset and maintenance of generalized anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder. The purpose of this study was to examine the efficacy of emotion regulation therapy in control of attention, mindfulness and reappraisa...
