BDNF gene: functional Val66Met polymorphism in mood disorders and schizophrenia.

Pharmacogenomics - 1 Nov 2008

Rybakowski Janusz K

Abstract excerpt

The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene has become a candidate gene for molecular-genetic studies of mood disorders and schizophrenia, and also for pharmacogenomics of drugs used in the treatment of these conditions, such as mood-stabilizers in bipolar mood disorder, antidepressants in depression, and antipsychotics in schizophrenia. It has been demonstrated that the functional Val66Met polymorphism of...
