Endophenotypes for psychiatric disorders: ready for primetime?

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Jun 2006

Bearden Carrie E, Freimer Nelson B

Abstract excerpt

It is increasingly accepted that the imprecision of categorical psychiatric diagnoses can be a limiting factor in understanding the genetic basis of human behavioral abnormalities. Genetic investigation of endophenotypes--more precisely defined quantitative traits hypothesized to underlie disease syndromes--offers great promise as an alternative or complement to studies of categorical disease phenotypes. However,...
