Estudos traducionais de neuropsiquiatria e esquizofrenia: modelos animais genéticos e de neurodesenvolvimento

Abstract: Psychiatric symptoms are subjective by nature and tend to overlap between different disorders. The modelling of a neuropsychiatric disorder therefore faces challenges because of missing knowledge of the fundamental pathophysiology and a lack of accurate diagnostics. Animal models are used to test hypotheses of aetiology and to represent the human condition as close as possible to increase our understanding of the disease and to evaluate new targets for drug discovery. In this review, genetic and neurodevelopme… Show more

“…The under-expression of neuropeptide gene POMC in MPA relative to CON males ( Table 1 ) may be associated with the changes in POMC-related peptide transmission that has been reported in the brains of patients diagnosed with SSD ( Jamali and Tramu, 1997 ). The under-expression of the neuropeptide gene PENK in MPA relative to CON males ( Table 1 ) is in agreement with lower levels of PENK expression in the brains of mice models of SSD ( Gottschalk et al, 2013 ). PENK was also differentially expressed in the amygdala of an ASD rat model using prenatal valproic acid exposure ( Oguchi-Katayama et al, 2013 ).…”

“…Tal convegência necessita de uma abordagem multidisciplinar para o transtorno, devendo levar em conta o controle e a prevenção de fatores estressores, além dos sintomas clássicos. Dessa forma, embora ainda enigmática em sua essência, a esquizofrenia parece ser de gênese multifatorial (Gottschalk, Sarnyai, Guest, Harris & Bahn, 2013), tendo por base elementos genéticos e ambientais, associados a um aumento no risco de desenvolver o transtorno (Silva, 2006).…”
