Novel multiple sclerosis susceptibility loci implicated in epigenetic regulation
2016
Genome-wide study in Germans identifies four novel multiple sclerosis risk genes and confirms already known gene loci.
Common genes associated with antidepressant response in mouse and man identify key role of glucocorticoid receptor sensitivity.

Response to antidepressant treatment in major depressive disorder (MDD) cannot be predicted currently, leading to uncertainty in medication selection, increasing costs, and prolonged suffering for many patients. Despite tremendous efforts in identifying response-associated genes in large genome-wide association studies, the results have been fairly modest, underlining the need to establish conceptually novel strategies. For the identification of transcriptome signatures that can distinguish between treatment responders and nonresponders, we herein submit a novel animal experimental approach focusing on extreme phenotypes. We utilized the large variance in response to antidepressant treatmen…
