Genetic and Epigenetic Mechanisms in Psychiatry

Genetic predisposition and epigenetic modifications significantly influence the onset, severity, and progression of psychiatric disorders. Variations in genes related to neurotransmitter synthesis, receptor function, and synaptic plasticity contribute to mood disorders, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorders. Epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNA regulation, mediate environmental effects such as stress, trauma, and substance exposure on gene expression. These modifications can alter neural circuitry, neuroplasticity, and stress-response pathways, influencing behavior and cognition. Neuroimaging studies reveal structural and functional brain changes linked to specific genetic variants. AI-based analysis of genomic and multi-omic data enables prediction of disease risk, treatment response, and personalized pharmacotherapy selection. Telemedicine platforms allow remote genetic counseling and monitoring of at-risk populations. Understanding genetic and epigenetic mechanisms provides a biologically informed foundation for precision psychiatry, integrating molecular, neural, and behavioral data for targeted intervention strategies.
