Genes Linked to Mood and Psychosis Risk Influence Daily Rhythms in Brain Cells

Updated

Abstract

Mood and psychotic disorders are associated with disrupted circadian rhythms in sleep and activity.

  • Mood and psychotic disorders may impact the regulation of biological clocks governing sleep and activity patterns.
  • Certain genes linked to mood and psychosis risk could influence how these circadian rhythms function at a molecular level.
  • The specific role of mood and psychosis risk-associated genes in cellular circadian rhythms is currently unclear.
