Translating the evidence for gene association with depression into mouse models of depression-relevant behaviour: current limitations and future potential.

Abstract excerpt

Depression is characterised by high prevalence and complex, heterogeneous psychopathology. At the level of aetio-pathology, considerable research effort has been invested to identify specific gene polymorphisms associated with increased depression prevalence. Genome-wide association studies have not identified any risk polymorphisms, and candidate gene case-control studies have identified a small number of risk...
