Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Abnormalities of signal transduction are considered among the susceptibility factors for bipolar disorder (BD). These include changes in G-protein-mediated signaling and subsequent modification of gene expression via transcription factors such as cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB). METHODS: We investigated levels of CREB in lymphoblasts from patients with BD, all responders to lithium...
