DISSECTING THE MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF GENE X ENVIRONMENT INTERACTIONS: IMPLICATIONS FOR DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF STRESS-RELATED PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS

Dissecting the molecular mechanisms of gene x environment interactions: implications for diagnosis and treatment of stress-related psychiatric disorders

Epidemiological studies indicate a combined contribution of genetic and environmental factors, mainly exposure to adverse life events, in the risk for psychiatric disease.Understanding how adverse life events interact with genetic predisposition on the molecular level to shape risk and resilience to psychiatric disorders may yield important insight

Proliferation is a central independent prognostic factor and target for personalized and risk-adapted treatment in multiple myeloma

Background Proliferation of malignant plasma cells is a strong adverse prognostic factor in multiple myeloma and simultaneously targetable by available (e.g.tubulin polymerase inhibitors) and upcoming (e.g.aurora kinase inhibitors) compounds.Design and Methods We assessed proliferation using gene expression-based indices in 757 samples including in
