Little things on which happiness depends: microRNAs as novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of anxiety and depression.

abstract：:Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) impacts many veterans and active duty soldiers, but diagnosis can be problematic due to biases in self-disclosure of symptoms, stigma within military populations, and limitations identifying those at risk. Prior studies suggest that PTSD may be a systemic illness, affecting not ju...
