Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and suicide pathogenesis.

Annals of medicine - 1 Mar 2010

Dwivedi Yogesh

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Suicide is a major public health concern. The etiology and pathogenic mechanisms associated with suicidal behavior are poorly understood. Recent research on the biological perspective of suicide has gained momentum and appears to provide a promising approach for identifying potential risk factors associated with this disorder. One of the areas that have gained the most attention in suicide research is...
