TL;DR: Evidence is provided that GC are necessary for learning and memory in human populations in situations of decreased or increased ratio of mineralocorticoid (MR) and glucocortioid (GR) receptor occupation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity and related metabolic abnormalities during antipsychotic drug administration: mechanisms, management and research perspectives.
TL;DR: A unified theory to explain these side effects of excessive BWG and metabolic dysfunction is focused on, based on the interaction of APs with brain neurotransmitters involved in appetite regulation.

Journal ArticleDOI
The 5HTTLPR polymorphism, psychopathologic symptoms, and platelet [3H-] paroxetine binding in bulimic syndromes.
Howard Steiger,Ridha Joober,Mimi Israel,Simon N. Young,N.M.K. Ng Ying Kin,Lise Gauvin,Kenneth R. Bruce,Jasmine Joncas,Adam Torkamanzehi +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that proneness to impulsivity, affective dysregulation, and reduced central 5-HT reuptake may (in part) be codetermined by the 5HTTLPR polymorphism.
Journal ArticleDOI
