Understanding the role of DISC1 in psychiatric disease and during normal development Brandon NJ; Millar JK; Korth C; Sive H; Singh KK; Sawa AJ Neurosci 2009[Oct]; 29 (41): 12768-75The biology of schizophrenia is complex with multiple hypotheses (dopamine, glutamate, neurodevelopmental) well supported to underlie the disease. Pathways centered on the risk factor "disrupted in schizophrenia 1" (DISC1) may be able to explain and unite these disparate hypotheses and will be the topic of this mini-symposium preview. Nearly a decade after its original identification at the center of a translocation breakpoint in a large Scottish family that was associated with major psychiatric disease, we are starting to obtain credible insights into its function and role in disease etiology. This preview will highlight a number of exciting areas of current DISC1 research that are revealing roles for DISC1 during normal brain development and also in the disease state. Together these different threads will provide a timely and exciting overview of the DISC1 field and its potential in furthering our understanding of psychiatric diseases and in developing new therapies.|*Gene Expression Regulation, Developmental[MESH]|*Genetic Predisposition to Disease[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Brain/cytology/growth & development/metabolism[MESH]|Disease Models, Animal[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Mental Disorders/*genetics/*metabolism[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Nerve Tissue Proteins/genetics/*metabolism[MESH]|Risk Factors[MESH]|Signal Transduction/genetics[MESH]|Synapses/genetics/metabolism[MESH] |
