1. Corrigendum
Objective: We investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with neuroplasticity and activity of monoamine neurotransmitters, such as the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF, rs6265), the serotonin transporter (SLC6A4, rs25531), the tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1, rs1800532), the 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2A (HTR2A, rs6311, r

5. Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) polymorphisms modulate working memory in individuals with schizophrenia and healthy controls
Objective: Cognitive impairment is a core feature of schizophrenia, related to dopaminergic dysfunction in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). It is hypothesized that functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4680 of the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene could mediate the relationship between cognition and dopamine activity in the PFC. Other COMT SN

6. The catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitory potential of Z-vallesiachotamine by in silicoand in vitro approaches
AbstractZ-Vallesiachotamine is a monoterpene indole alkaloid that has a β-N-acrylate group in its structure. This class of compounds has already been described in different Psychotriaspecies. Our research group observed that E/Z-vallesiachotamine exhibits a multifunctional feature, being able to inhibit targets related to neurodegeneration, such as monoamin

7. Catecol O-metiltransferase e o transtorno obsessivo-compulsivo: revisão sistemática com meta-análise / Catechol O-metyltransferase and obsessive-compulsive disorder: systematic review and meta-analysis
INTRODUÇÃO: O caráter familial do transtorno obsessivo-compulsivo (TOC) já é bem estabelecido. O gene da catecol O-metiltransferase (COMT) vem sendo objeto de estudo na genética de transtornos mentais, como o TOC. No caso deste transtorno, os resultados de estudos de associação com o gene da COMT são, em sua maioria, contraditórios. Meta-análises

8. Variantes genéticas de risco para a dependência de crack/cocaína: estudo de associação do tipo gene candidato e epistasia / Genetic risk variants for crack/cocaine dependence:gene candidate association study and epistasis
O uso da cocaína e do crack tornou-se um problema de saúde pública importante no Brasil por conta de prejuízos significativos do ponto de vista médico, psicológico e social que ele acarreta. Estudos de gêmeos e, em famílias, sugerem que a dependência de cocaína é uma doença complexa, com participação importante de fatores genéticos. Os estudos

9. Catechol-O-methyltransferase and TMD in women / Polimorfismo genetico da Catecolamina-0-Metiltransferase (Val 158Met) e disfunção temporomandibular em mulheres
Pain is a complex experience encompassing behavioral, environmental, and genetics factors. Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) are a musculoskeletal condition considered to have multifactorial etiology comprising local, systemic and genetic factors, which makes individuals respond differently to the development and progression of the disease. Thus, intrinsic g

10. Polymorphism of the catechol-O-methyltransferase gene in Han Chinese patients with psoriasis vulgaris
Psoriasis vulgaris is defined by a series of linked cellular changes in the skin: hyperplasia of epidermal keratinocytes, vascular hyperplasia and ectasia, and infiltration of T lymphocytes, neutrophils and other types of leukocytes in the affected skin. Catechol-O-methyltransferase ( COMT ) 158 polymorphism can reduce the activity of the COMT enzyme that

11. Estudo de associação entre genes do sistema dopaminérgico e esquizofrenia / Study of association between genes of the dopaminergic system and schizophrenia
Evidências de estudos genético-epidemiológicos têm demonstrado a existência de um fator de risco genético para o desenvolvimento da esquizofrenia. Na presente Tese, um total de 245 pacientes com esquizofrenia e 834 controles foi selecionado com o objetivo de investigar a diferença na distribuição de alelos e genótipos de seis polimorfismos de quatr

12. Kinetics and inhibition studies of catechol O-methyltransferase from the yeast Candida tropicalis.
The Kms for esculetin and S-adenosyl-L-methionine for catechol O-methyltransferase from the yeast Candida tropicalis were 6.2 and 40 microM, respectively. S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine was a very potent competitive inhibitor with respect to S-adenosyl-L-methionine, with a Ki of 6.9 microM. Of the catechol-related inhibitors, purpurogallin, with a Ki of 0.07 micr
