Sparse whole-genome sequencing identifies two loci for major depressive disorder

Na Cai, +108 more
- 30 Jul 2015 - 
TL;DR: Using low-coverage whole-genome sequencing of 5,303 Chinese women with recurrent MDD selected to reduce phenotypic heterogeneity, and 5,337 controls screened to exclude MDD, two loci contributing to risk of MDD on chromosome 10 are identified: one near the SIRT1 gene and the other in an intron of the LHPP gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

The structure of the symptoms of major depression: exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis in depressed Han Chinese women.

TL;DR: Prior cross-cultural studies, factor analyses of MD in Western populations and empirical findings in this sample showing risk factor profiles similar to those seen inWestern populations suggest that the results are likely to be broadly representative of the human depressive syndrome.
