The BDNF val66met polymorphism affects activity-dependent secretion of BDNF and human memory and hippocampal function

TL;DR: A role is demonstrated for BDNF and its val/met polymorphism in human memory and hippocampal function and it is suggested val/ met exerts these effects by impacting intracellular trafficking and activity-dependent secretion of BDNF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of COMT Val108/158 Met genotype on frontal lobe function and risk for schizophrenia.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the COMT Val allele, because it increases prefrontal dopamine catabolism, impairs prefrontal cognition and physiology, and by this mechanism slightly increases risk for schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of separable cognitive factors in schizophrenia.

TL;DR: Empirical evidence for cognitive performance dimensions in schizophrenia was evaluated and seven separable cognitive factors were replicable across studies and represent fundamental dimensions of cognitive deficit in schizophrenia: Speed of Processing, Attention/Vigilance, Working Memory, Verbal Learning and Memory, Visual Learning and memory, Reasoning and Problem Solving, and Verbal Comprehension.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia: reliability, sensitivity, and comparison with a standard neurocognitive battery.

TL;DR: The BACS was found to be as sensitive to cognitive impairment in patients with schizophrenia as a standard battery of tests that required over 2 h to administer and to be highly correlated with the standard battery composite scores in patients and healthy controls.
