Whole genome association study of functional psychoses

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

We performed whole genome association study of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. For schizophrenia, we examined 100K SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) using trio samples in the first stage, and in the second stage we used case-control samples. In the final stage, we examined Chinese quad samples. It is of note that in Japanese population, multiple GABAergic genes showed association with schizophrenia. For bipolar disorder, we examined 100K SNPs using case-control samples. We have published the data and made it open to public via an in house server.
