## Abstract The phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B), which is involved in cognitive function in animal models, is a candidate susceptibility gene for schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BP). Variations in __PDE4B__ have previously been associated with SZ, with a suggested genderβspecific effect. We h
## Abstract Glutamatergic dysfunction is one of the major hypotheses for the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. The __GRIA1__ gene encodes for one (GluR1) of the four (GluR1β4) ionotropic AMPA receptor subunits. __GRIA1__ is a good candidate gene for susceptibility to schizophrenia since it maps in 5q3
## Abstract Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is a candidate gene for psychiatric disorders. We examined the frequency of a functional insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in the 16th intron of the ACE gene (located on chromosome 17q23) in groups of patients with schizophrenia (nβ=β104 and 113),
