Pharmacogenetic insights into depression and antidepressant response: does sex matter?

Current pharmaceutical design - 1 Jan 2010

Pitychoutis P M, Zisaki A, Dalla C, Papadopoulou-Daifoti Z

Abstract excerpt

It is known that the frequency of men and women suffering from stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders is all but proportionally distributed. Notably, women are far more susceptible than men to the precipitation of depressive symptomatology. Some studies attribute this sex-specific vulnerability to the pronounced genetic predisposition that women may present towards the development of depressive disorders....
