متن کاملThe molecular genetics of the 22q11-associated schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia has a strong genetic component but the mode of inheritance of the disease is complex and in all likelihood involves interaction among multiple genes and also possibly environmental or stochastic factors. A number of studies have shown that the 22q11 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a true genetic subtype of schizophrenia and as such may play an extremely important role in decipherin...
