Neuroimaging genetics: new perspectives in research on major depression?

Acta psychiatrica Scandinavica - 1 Nov 2008

Frodl T, Möller H-J, Meisenzahl E

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Stress-related changes in the hippocampus are influenced by genetic factors. To enhance our understanding of both the interaction between the brain, behaviour and genetics and of biological mechanisms in mood disorders neuroimaging genetics provide a good opportunity. METHOD: A MEDLINE search was conducted to identify articles on neuroimaging genetics in major depression (MD). RESULTS: Hippocampal...
