Therapeutic approach 1970-01-01
A therapeutic approach refers to the specific methods or techniques employed in the treatment of psychological, emotional, or physical issues. These approaches are guided by theoretical frameworks and principles that inform how practitioners understand and address clients' concerns. Here are some common therapeutic approaches used in mental health and well-being: 1. **Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)**: Focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors. It is often used to treat anxiety, depression, and other mental health disorders.

GABRG3 1970-01-01
GABRG3 is a gene that encodes a subunit of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptor, which is an important neurotransmitter receptor in the brain. This receptor is part of a large family of ligand-gated ion channels that mediate fast inhibitory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system.
GABRQ 1970-01-01
KCNH6 1970-01-01
KCNH6, also known as potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 6, is a gene that encodes a protein belonging to the family of voltage-gated potassium channels. These channels are crucial for the regulation of electrical excitability in various types of cells, particularly in neurons and muscle cells.
KCNJ12 1970-01-01
KCNJ12, also known as potassium ion channel, subfamily J, member 12, is a gene that encodes a protein involved in the formation of potassium channels. These channels are integral to various cellular processes, including the regulation of cellular excitability, which is critical for proper function in tissues like the heart and nervous system.
KCNN2 1970-01-01
KCNN2, or "Potassium Calcium-Activated Channel Subfamily N Member 2," is a gene that encodes a protein belonging to the SK (small-conductance Ca^2+-activated K^+) channel family. These channels play a vital role in regulating neuronal excitability and smooth muscle contraction by allowing potassium ions to flow out of cells in response to increases in intracellular calcium levels.
