A polymorphic genomic duplication on human chromosome 15 is a susceptibility factor for panic and phobic disorders
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on the anxiety disorders. The molecular basis of the panic and phobic disorder cooccurrence with joint laxity has been investigated, and the interstitial duplication of the human chromosome associated with the the anxiety disorders in families and panic disorders in nonfamilial cases has been identified.
