Genetic factors seem to play an important role in the pathogenesis of affective disorder. The candidate gene strategies are being used, among others, to identify the genes conferring vulnerability to the disease. The genes coding for the receptors of gammaaminobutyric acid (GABA) have been proposed

Hereditary factors play a major role in the etiology of idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs). The pivotal function of ionotropic gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABRs) in inhibitory neurotransmission in the mammalian central nervous system suggests that they may be involved in epilepto
## Background: The pregnane-X-receptor (PXR) is involved in the metabolism and detoxification of numerous xenobiotics and is critical for maintaining intestinal integrity. The NR1I2 gene encoding PXR may confer susceptibility for Crohn's disease (CD) but evidence for associations is conflicting. We
