The role of epigenetics in depression and suicide: A platform for gene-environment interactions.

Psychiatry research - 30 Aug 2015

Lockwood Laura E, Su Shaoyong, Youssef Nagy A

Abstract excerpt

Epigenetics involves functional modifications of genes. The aim of this paper is to explore if an association exists between epigenetics and depression and/or suicide. MedLine/PubMed searches were performed using both Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) and Non-MeSH terms. Based on pre-specified terms and inclusion criteria, sixteen studies met inclusion criteria by the 3 independent reviewers. Epigenetic changes seem...
