Abstract excerpt
Altered intracellular calcium homeostasis and oxidative stress are involved in the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder (BD)-I. To explore the genes contributing to these abnormalities, we examined the association with BD of the iPLA2β (PLA2G6), a signaling enzyme that mobilizes the arachidonic acid signaling cascade and activates oxidative stress, and assessed whether it interacts genetically with type 2...
