Obsessive-compulsive Disorder

Information about Obsessive-compulsive Disorder: 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 Obsessive-compulsive Disorder

Most recent studies have shown that Obsessive-compulsive Disorder shares some biological mechanisms with anxiety-disorders, attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder, behavioral-tic, bipolar-disorder, depressive-disorder, gilles-de-la-tourette-syndrome, major-depressive-disorder, mental-disorders, mood-disorders, neurotic-disorders, obsessive-compulsive-behavior, obsessive-rumination, osteochondritis-dissecans, panic-disorder, personality-disorders, phobic-anxiety-disorder, post-traumatic-stress-disorder, psychotic-disorders, schizophrenia, social-phobia.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Obsessive-compulsive Disorder, and have been seen in publications frequently: Aging, Brain Development, Cognition, Eating Behavior, Habituation, Hypersensitivity, Localization, Menstruation, Pathogenesis, Prepulse Inhibition, Reflex, Response To Drug, Rumination, Secretion, Sensitization, Serotonin Uptake, Startle Response, Translation, Transport

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Obsessive-compulsive Disorder, such as ACACA, ARNTL, BDNF, CACNA1C, COMT, CSF2, EBPL, ELK3, GAD1, HTR1A, HTR2A, LRP2, MCF2L, OPN1SW, PRL, SLC1A1, SLC6A4, SRI, TBXAS1, TYMS.

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.
