CACNA1C (CaV1.2) and other L-type calcium channels in the pathophysiology and treatment of psychiatric disorders: Advances from functional genomics and pharmacoepidemiology
(2022-09)A role for voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) in psychiatric disorders has long been postulated as part of a broader involvement of intracellular calcium signalling. However, the data were inconclusive and hard to ... -
Disrupted‐in‐schizophrenia 1 functional polymorphisms and D2/D3 receptor availability: A [11C]‐(+)‐PHNO imaging study
(2019-07)The disrupted‐in‐schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) protein has been implicated in a range of biological mechanisms underlying chronic mental disorders such as schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is associated with abnormal striatal dopamine ... -
GRIN2A (NR2A): a gene contributing to glutamatergic involvement in schizophrenia
(2023-09)Involvement of the glutamate system, particularly N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor hypofunction, has long been postulated to be part of the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. An important development is provided by ...
