Body Dysmorphic Disorders

Information about Body Dysmorphic Disorders: characteristics, related genes and pathways, plus antibodies you can use for research. This page is being enriched constantly, if you see some information you would like this page to include please send your suggestions to us.

Overview of Body Dysmorphic Disorders

Most recent studies have shown that Body Dysmorphic Disorders shares some biological mechanisms with anxiety-disorders, cancer-patients-and-suicide-and-depression, delusions, depressive-disorder, eating-disorders, hypochondriasis, major-depressive-disorder, mental-disorders, mood-disorders, obsessive-compulsive-disorder, osteochondritis-dissecans, personality-disorders, phobic-anxiety-disorder, psychotic-disorders, social-phobia, somatoform-disorder, trichotillomania.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Body Dysmorphic Disorders, and have been seen in publications frequently: Aging, Cell Death, Cellular Process, Cognition, Double-strand Break Repair, Eating Behavior, Excretion, Gland Development, Grooming Behavior, Habituation, Localization, Mammary Gland Development, Metaphase, Pathogenesis, Rumination, Serotonin Uptake, Telogen, Visual Perception, Wound Healing

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Body Dysmorphic Disorders, such as ARNTL, BPIFA2, CACNA1A, CACNA1C, DCT, DCX, FGD1, IL6, MAOA, MSMB, OPN1SW, PSPH, PSPN, PTCH1, REG1A, SRI, STXBP3, TYMS. See what Boster has to offer for the research of these genes by clicking the gene name links below and view a more detailed info card/product listing for that gene.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
