The Role of Genes, Stress, and Dopamine in the Development of Schizophrenia.

TLDR
A model is presented of how genes and environmental factors may sensitize the dopamine system so that it is vulnerable to acute stress, leading to progressive dysregulation and the onset of psychosis.

A Novel Biomarker Renalase and Its Relationship with its Substrates in Schizophrenia.

TL;DR: Renalase enzyme levels may play a substantial role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and might be a new future target for the treatment and diagnosis of schizophrenia after intrabrain renalase and DA dynamics have been further evaluated.

Hair Cortisol Is Associated With Social Support and Symptoms in Schizophrenia.

TL;DR: Findings indicate social support could be a moderator for the relationship between SLE and HCC which may attenuate the effects of SLE in schizophrenia.

3D-porous laser-scribed graphene decorated with overoxidized polypyrrole as an electrochemical sensing platform for dopamine

TL;DR: In this article , a simple and disposable electrochemical sensor for the detection of dopamine (DA) was proposed based on overoxidized polypyrrole (PPyox) modified laser scribed graphene electrode (LSGE).

Facile synthesis of flower-like CePO4 with hierarchical structure for the simultaneous electrochemical detection of dopamine, uric acid and acetaminophen

TL;DR: In this paper , a flower-like CePO4 (F-CePO4) with hierarchical structure was hydrothermally prepared and the comparative experiments showed that the amount of hydrazine hydrate and urea as well as the reaction time significantly affect reaction time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cortical dopamine dysregulation in schizophrenia and its link to stress

TL;DR: Schifani et al. as discussed by the authors showed that Cortical stress regulation is disrupted in schizophrenia but not in clinical high risk for psychosis, but this is not the case for bipolar disorder.

TL;DR: Associations at DRD2 and several genes involved in glutamatergic neurotransmission highlight molecules of known and potential therapeutic relevance to schizophrenia, and are consistent with leading pathophysiological hypotheses.

KEGG as a reference resource for gene and protein annotation

TL;DR: The KEGG GENES database now includes viruses, plasmids, and the addendum category for functionally characterized proteins that are not represented in complete genomes, and new automatic annotation servers, BlastKOalA and GhostKOALA, are made available utilizing the non-redundant pangenome data set generated from theGENES database.

Clozapine for the treatment-resistant schizophrenic. A double-blind comparison with chlorpromazine

TL;DR: In this relatively brief study, the apparently increased comparative risk of agranulocytosis requires that the use of clozapine be limited to selected treatment-resistant patients.

The NHGRI GWAS Catalog, a curated resource of SNP-trait associations

TL;DR: A number of recent improvements to theNHGRI Catalog of Published Genome-Wide Association Studies are presented, including novel ways for users to interact with the Catalog and changes to the curation infrastructure.

Stress signalling pathways that impair prefrontal cortex structure and function

TL;DR: Recent research has provided clues as to why genetic or environmental insults that disinhibit stress signalling pathways can lead to symptoms of profound prefrontal cortical dysfunction in mental illness.
