0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In conclusion, the SNP rs948854 in the GAL gene seems to be involved in the modulation of depressive state, especially in individuals with GG genotype. 28987550 2018
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE A role of galanin in depression is also supported by a recent candidate gene study, showing that variants in genes for galanin and its three receptors confer increased risk of depression and anxiety in people who experienced childhood adversity or recent negative life events. 30627087 2018
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Galanin, a peptide expressed in mammalian brain regions, has been implicated in anxiety and depression. 29499176 2018
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Galanin (GAL), an estrogen-inducible neuropeptide has also been reported to be associated with depression. 30487761 2018
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Since Serotonin (5-HT), especially through 5-HT1A, and Galanin receptors interact at both pre-and postsynaptic level, the development of drugs targeting potential GAL<sub>1</sub>-GAL<sub>2</sub>-5-HT1A heteroreceptor complexes linked to the raphe-hippocampal 5-HT neurons may represent new treatment strategies in depression. 28196617 2017
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE The results open up the possibility to use GAL(1-15) as for a combination therapy with FLX as a novel strategy for treatment of depression. 28288814 2017
CUI: C0011570
Disease: Mental Depression
Mental Depression
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Galanin and its receptors appear to play key roles in depression-like behavior, and effects on hippocampal neurogenesis are relevant to pharmacological strategies for treating depression, which in part appear to rely on restoring altered neurogenesis. 28431685 2017
CUI: C0011570
