Electrophysiological Endophenotypes for Schizophrenia [PDF]

open access: yesHarvard Review of Psychiatry, 2016
Endophenotypes are quantitative, heritable traits that may help to elucidate the pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying complex disease syndromes, such as schizophrenia. They can be assessed at numerous levels of analysis; here, we review electrophysiological endophenotypes that have shown promise in helping us understand schizophrenia from a more ...

Identifying endophenotypes of autism: A multivariate approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2014
The existence of an endophenotype of autism spectrum condition (ASC) has been recently suggested by several commentators. It can be estimated by finding differences between controls and people with ASC that are also present when comparing controls and ...

Subtle Cerebellar Features in Relatives of Essential Tremor Cases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Background: Essential tremor (ET) cases often exhibit a range of mild cerebellar signs. Their unaffected relatives have been shown in prior studies to exhibit subtle (i.e., preclinical) disease features.Objective: To quantify subtle cerebellar signs in ...

Osmotic Stress Uncovers Correlations and Dissociations Between Larval Zebrafish Anxiety Endophenotypes

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Larval zebrafish are often used to model anxiety disorders. However, since it is impossible to recapitulate the full complexity and heterogeneity of anxiety in this model, examining component endophenotypes is key to dissecting the mechanisms underlying ...

Reduced Prepulse Inhibition as a Biomarker of Schizophrenia

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2016
The startle response is composed by a set of reflex behaviors intended to prepare the organism to face a potentially relevant stimulus. This response can be modulated by several factors as, for example, repeated presentations of the stimulus (startle ...

Low serum sphingolipids in children with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
Background: Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most prevalent neuropsychiatric condition in childhood. ADHD is a multifactorial trait with a strong genetic component. One neurodevelopmental hypothesis is that ADHD is associated with a

Endophenotypes in a Dynamically Connected Brain [PDF]

open access: yesBehavior Genetics, 2010
We examined the longitudinal genetic architecture of three parameters of functional brain connectivity. One parameter described overall connectivity (synchronization likelihood, SL). The two others were derived from graph theory and described local (clustering coefficient, CC) and global (average path length, L) aspects of connectivity.

Contributions from specific and general factors to unique deficits: two cases of mathematics learning difficulties

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Mathematics learning difficulties are a highly comorbid and heterogeneous set of disorders linked to several dissociable mechanisms and endophenotypes.

Supplementary Material for: When Is an Endophenotype Useful to Detect Association to a Disease? Exploring the Relationships between Disease Status, Endophenotype and Genetic Polymorphisms

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: To investigate the conditions and analysis strategies required so that endophenotypes related to a disease help discover genetic variants involved in the disease.
