401	Analysis of genetic variation in microrna-mediated regulation and the susceptibility to anxiety disorders Muiños Gimeno, Margarita 18 December 2009 (has links) We have investigated genetic variation in microRNA-mediated regulation as a susceptibility factor for anxiety disorders following two different approaches. We first studied two isoforms of the candidate gene NTRK3 by re-sequencing its different 3'UTRs in patients with Panic (PD) and Obsessive Compulsive disorders (OCD) as well as controls. Two rare variants that altered microRNA-mediated regulation were identified in PD. Conversely, association of a common SNP with OCD hoarding subtype was found. Moreover, we have also studied a possible involvement of microRNAs in anxiety disorders. Consequently, we have analysed the genomic organisation and genetic variation of miRNA-containing regions to construct a panel of SNPs for association analysis. Case-control studies revealed several associations. However, it is worth remarking the associations of miR-22 and miR-488 with PD; two microRNAs for which functional assays and transcriptome analysis after microRNA overexpression showed significant repression of a subset of genes involved in physiological pathways linked to PD development. / Hem investigat la variació genètica a la regulació mediada per microRNAs com a factors de susceptibilitat pels trastorns d'ansietat seguint dues aproximacions diferents. Primer vam estudiar dues isoformes del gen candidat NTRK3 mitjançant la reseqüenciació dels seus diferents 3'UTRs a pacients de pànic (TP), a pacients amb trastorn obsessiu compulsiu (TOC) i a controls. Dues variants rares que alteren la regulació mediada per microRNAs foren identificades per TP. D'altra banda, es trobà associació d'un SNP comú amb el subtipus acumulador de TOC. A més, també hem estudiat la possible implicació dels microRNAs als trastorns d'ansietat. Conseqüentment, hem analitzat l'organització genòmica i la variació genètica a regions que contenen microRNAs per construir un panell d'SNPs per fer anàlisis d'associació. Els estudis cas-control van revelar algunes associacions. Tanmateix, val la pena destacar les associacions del miR-22 i el miR-488 amb TP; dos microRNAs pels quals assajos funcionals i anàlisis de transcriptoma després de la seva sobreexpressió han mostrat una repressió significativa d'un grup de gens implicats en vies fisiològiques lligades al desenvolupament del TP. isoforma anàlisi de transcriptoma PCR assaig de luciferasa variant comuna variant rara reseqüenciar estudis d'associació poly-miRTS trastorn obsessiu-compulsiu trastorn de pànic trastorn d'ansietat variació genètica intraespecífica SNP NTRK3 gen candidat element regulador microRNA variació genòmica desordres poligènics trets complexes isoform transcriptome analysis PCR luciferase assay common variant rare variant re-sequencing association studies poly-miRTS obsessive-compulsive disorder panic disorder anxiety disorder genetic variation within species SNP NTRK3 candidate gene regulatory element microRNA genome variation polygenic disorders complex traits 57
402	Evidence-based pharmacological treatment of anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder: A revision of the 2005 guidelines from the British Association for Psychopharmacology Baldwin, David S., Anderson, Ian M., Nutt, David J., Allgulander, Christer, Bandelow, Borwin, den Boer, Johan A., Christmas, David M., Davies, Simon, Fineberg, Naomi, Lidbetter, Nicky, Malizia, Andrea, McCrone, Paul, Nabarro, Daniel, O’Neill, Catherine, Scott, Jan, van der Wee, Nic, Wittchen, Hans-Ulrich 17 September 2019 (has links) This revision of the 2005 British Association for Psychopharmacology guidelines for the evidence-based pharmacological treatment of anxiety disorders provides an update on key steps in diagnosis and clinical management, including recognition, acute treatment, longer-term treatment, combination treatment, and further approaches for patients who have not responded to first-line interventions. A consensus meeting involving international experts in anxiety disorders reviewed the main subject areas and considered the strength of supporting evidence and its clinical implications. The guidelines are based on available evidence, were constructed after extensive feedback from participants, and are presented as recommendations to aid clinical decision-making in primary, secondary and tertiary medical care. They may also serve as a source of information for patients, their carers, and medicines management and formulary committees. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/610 ddc:610
