Developmental vitamin D deficiency alters dopamine turnover in neonatal rat forebrain (2009)

Kesby, J. P., Cui, X. Y., Ko, P., McGrath, J. J., Burne, T. H. J., Eyles, D. W.

There is growing evidence that low vitamin D impacts adversely on brain development. The current study investigated the impact of developmental vitamin D (DVD) deficiency on dopamine and serotonin...

The diagnostic interview for psychoses (DIP): development, reliability and applications (2006)

Castle, D. J., Jablensky, A., McGrath, J. J., Carr, V., Morgan, V., Waterreus, A., ...

Behavioural outcomes of prenatal vitamin D deficiency in rats (2004)

Burne, T.H.J., Eyles, D.W., Becker, A., Brown, J., Mackay-Sim, A., McGrath, J.J.

Background/objective: There is accumulating evidence for an important role for vitamin D in brain function, including our recent observations that animals deprived of vitamin D in utero had brains...

Transient prenatal and early life hypovitaminosis D induce permanent alterations in brain morphology, cell density and gene expression consistent with alterations observed in schizophrenia (2004)

Eyles, D., Burne, Thomas Henry Johnston, Brown, J., Smith, E., Mackay-Sim, Alan, McGrath, J.J., ...

Background: Based on data from ecological and analytic epidemiological studies, we have proposed that low prenatal vitamin D is a candidate risk-modifying factor for schizophrenia. Previously, we...

Modelling human facial UV exposure (2001)

Downs, Nathan, Kimlin, Michael G., Parisi, Alfio, McGrath, J. J.

[Abstract]: There are strong links between exposure to UV radiation and both adverse health outcomes (eg. skin cancer, cataracts) and protective health outcomes (e.g. the production of vitamin D)....
