While the influence of both genetic and environmental factors on the development of psychiatric symptoms is well-recognized, the precise nature of their interaction throughout development remains a subject of ongoing debate. This study investigated the association between the expression of 78 candidate genes, previously associated with psychiatric phenotypes, in peripheral blood and both …
Neuropsychiatric disorders are the main cause of years lost because of disability in the worldwide young people. Many of these disorders present a high heritability, suggeting that the genome contains a large amount of information with a diagnosis potential. However, polygenic nature of these diseases, added to the influence of environmental factors makes it difficult to explore this info…
Psychotic disorders affect approximately 3% of the general population and are among the most severe forms of mental diseases. In early stages of psychosis, clinical aspects may be difficult to distinguish from one another. Undifferentiated psychopathology at the first-episode of psychosis (FEP) highlights the need for biomarkers that can improve and refine differential diagnosis. We inves…

Neuropsychiatric disorders are the main cause of years lost because of disability in the worldwide young people. Many of these disorders present a high heritability, reaching 60-80% for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. This suggests that the genome contains a large amount of information with a diagnosis potential. However, polygenic nature of these diseases, added to the influence of e…
Schizophrenia is the most severe and disabling mental disorder among psychiatric disorders. In addition, the delay in providing appropriate treatment and the duration of the first episode of psychosis are among the main factors of poor prognosis. The project proposes the investigation of genetic and epigenetic markers for the treatment of schizophrenia by studying the expression and meth…

Schizophrenia is a neurodevolpmental disorder with high heritability. Thus, multiple studies have been conducted to elucidate the genetic factors associated with the disease. Nowadays, with the development of genome-wide association studies, we can investigate thousands of genetic variants without a priori hypothesis of the neurobiology of the disease, allowing the search for new genes an…
