Whole transcriptome expression profiling is a helpful method to identify genes and biological pathways associated with the physiopathology of mental disorders and also to identify patterns of treatment response. Through peripheral blood gene expression levels analysis, important biomarkers for biomedically relevant states can be discovered. Furthermore, we can observe whether the global l…
The main objective of this project is to investigate the involvement of genome de novo and inherited rare variations in a sample of patients with Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (n=80) and their family members (n=80 families) using whole exome sequencing. Based on the observation that genes associated with similar diseases are likely to interact with each other heavily in a network, w…
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder in the general population, ranked among the 10 most debilitating disorders of any kind, in terms of lost earnings and diminished quality of life. OCD is a familial condition, with first-degree relatives of OCD probands being ~4-5 times more likely to have OCD themselves, compared to relatives of unaffected cont…
