Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic association study between antipsychotic-induced weight gain and the melanocortin-4 receptor gene.

TL;DR: In vitro electrophoretic mobility-shift assay that suggested that the presence of the A-allele may create a transcription factor-binding site is suggested, and further investigation is warranted for both these exploratory findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacogenomic study of side-effects for antidepressant treatment options in STAR*D

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the potential of GWAS to discover genes and pathways that could mediate adverse effects of antidepressant medication, and indicates that 10 SNPs in SACM1L mediated the effects of bupropion on sexual side-effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide pharmacogenomic study of citalopram-induced side effects in STAR*D

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the potential of genome-wide association studies to discover genes and pathways that potentially mediate adverse effects of antidepressant medications and identifies genetic variation influencing susceptibility to citalopram-induced side effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of serotonin 3A and 3B receptor genes on clozapine treatment response in schizophrenia.

TL;DR: It is suggested that variants in the HTR3A receptor gene can play a role in the treatment outcome of clozapine in schizophrenia patients that are refractory or intolerant of typical antipsychotic therapy.
