The utilization of molecular genetics approaches in examination of panic disorder (PD) has implicated several variants as potential susceptibility factors for panicogenesis. However, the identification of robust PD susceptibility genes has been complicated by phenotypic diversity, underpowered association studies and ancestry-specific effects. In the present study, we performed a succinct review of case–control association studies published prior to April 2015. Meta-analyses were performed for…

Using a mouse model of extremes in trait anxiety, it is shown that anxiety-related behavior was positively correlated with Tmem132d mRNA expression in the anterior cingulate cortex, central to the processing of anxiety/fear-related stimuli, and that in this animal model a T Mem132d SNP is associated with anxiety- related behavior in an F2 panel.
