Altered Gene Expression of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Receptor Tyrosine Kinase B in Postmortem Brain of Suicide Subjects

TL;DR: Findings of reduced expression of BDNF and trk B in postmortem brain in suicide subjects suggest that these molecules may play an important role in the pathophysiological aspects of suicidal behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced activation and expression of ERK1/2 MAP kinase in the post-mortem brain of depressed suicide subjects.

TL;DR: It is suggested that p44/42 MAP kinases are less activated in the post‐mortem brain of depressed suicide subjects and this may be because of reduced expression of ERK1/2 and increased expression of MKP2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proinflammatory cytokines in the prefrontal cortex of teenage suicide victims

TL;DR: An important role for IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the pathophysiology of suicidal behavior is suggested and that proinflammatory cytokines may be an appropriate target for developing therapeutic agents are suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA expression is down-regulated and reorganized in prefrontal cortex of depressed suicide subjects

TL;DR: Overall miRNA expression was significantly and globally down-regulated in prefrontal cortex of depressed suicide subjects, and a set of 29 miRNAs showed a high degree of co-regulation across individuals in the depressed suicide group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Higher Expression of Serotonin 5-HT2A Receptors in the Postmortem Brains of Teenage Suicide Victims

TL;DR: The evidence indicates higher levels of 5-HT(2A) receptor, protein, and mRNA expression in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus, which have been implicated in emotion, stress, and cognition, are shown to be associated with teenage suicide.
