Neuregulin 1 and susceptibility to schizophrenia.
The cause of schizophrenia is unknown, but it has a significant genetic component. Pharmacologic studies, studies of gene expression in man, and studies of mouse mutants suggest involvement of glutamate and dopamine neurotransmitter systems. However, so far, strong association has not been found between schizophrenia and variants of the genes encoding components of these systems. Here, we repor...
متن کاملNeuregulin 1 genotype and schizophrenia.
The neuregulin 1 (NRG1) gene has been the subject of considerable excitement within the psychiatric genetics literature since it was originally identified as a potential susceptibility locus for schizophrenia. Here we provide an update of our first meta-analysis of this association. Case-control and family-based genetic association studies of the NRG1 gene in healthy control groups and clinical...
متن کاملHaplotype analysis revealed no association between the PTPN22 gene and RA in a Japanese population.
OBJECTIVE The protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene is a member of the PTPs that negatively regulate T-cell activation. A missense single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the PTPN22 gene known as R620W was recently reported to be associated with several autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The association was confirmed repeatedly in the populations ...
متن کاملPositive association of AKT1 haplotype to Japanese methamphetamine use disorder.
Recent evidence suggests that the AKT1-GSK3beta signalling cascade partially mediates dopamine-dependent behaviours. In relation to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia or methamphetamine (Meth) use disorder, AKT1 is a good candidate gene for such conditions. For schizophrenia, positive associations of SNPs and AKT1 haplotypes were reported in US and Japanese samples. To evaluate the associatio...
متن کاملAssociation analysis of Neuregulin 1 candidate regions in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorder (BPD) are severe heritable psychiatric disorders involving a complex genetic aetiology. Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) is a leading candidate gene for SCZ, and has recently been implicated in BPD. We previously reported association of two NRG1 haplotypes with SCZ and BPD in a Scottish case-control sample. One haplotype is located at the 5' end of the gene (region A...
