I also read that certain mood related epigenic changes can be reversed by HDAC inhibitors like valproate. Valproate has only *some* adjunctive efficacy in schizophrenia and *some* adjunctive efficacy in depression however.
Also, don't agents like SAMe increase DNA methylation, yet it is an effective antidepressant for some people.
