| dc.description.abstract | Psychiatric disorders are complex phenomena that have neurological, genetic and epigenetic
bases. The epigenetic underpinnings of such disorders have been discovered and rediscovered
in past research and provide a promising ground for drug development involving fewer side
effects and faster recovery. This paper illustrates the epigenetics underlying the development
of depression, anxiety disorders, and schizophrenia. In addition, it elaborates on epigenetic
pharmacotherapy, focusing on HDAC and DNMT inhibitory activities of contemporary
medicine and prospective epigenetic drugs. | en_US |
