Genetic Variation in ADHD‐Related Risk Genes in an Indigenous Population of the Amazon
ABSTRACT Attention‐Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorder; however, its genetic architecture remains poorly explored in Indigenous populations. This study aimed to analyze and characterize genetic variation in 11 genes (ADGRL3, CDH8, DCC, DUSP6, FOXP1, FOXP2, MEF2C, PCDH7, SEMA6D, SORCS3, and ST3GAL3 ...

Trace Elements Genetics: A Potential Role in Treatment‐Resistant Major Psychoses and Related Traits?
ABSTRACT Trace elements are pivotal to key biological processes, with possible effects on psychopathology. We investigated the hypothesis of shared genetic factors between trace elements levels, treatment resistance and related traits. We used genome‐wide summary statistics for trace elements blood concentration, treatment‐resistant depression (TRD ...
