  • Biomarkers for Psychiatric Disorders

    Edited by Chris Turck ...
    Biomarkers hold immense promise for the early detection of disease. Unlike other disorders like diabetes and heart disease where a limited number of biological markers are at hand that allow the physician to come up with a reliable diagnosis, there are currently no such markers available for affective disorders. As in any other disease area a major goal is therefore the identification of early ... Read more

  • Trinucleotide Diseases and Instability

    Edited by Ben A. Oostra ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Till recently, mutations in genes were described in textbooks as deletions or point mutations. These mutations can be inherited from a parent or they are de novo alterations. The discovery in 1991 that human disease can be caused by large-scale ex pansion of highly unstable trinucleotide repeats has elucidated a new mutation mechanism, heritable unstable DNA. In the subsequent years more then 10 ... Read more
