Evidence consistent with the existence of genetic linkage between bipolar disorder and three regions on chromosome 18, the pericentromeric region, 18q21, and 18q22-q23 have been reported. Some analyses indicated greater evidence for linkage in pedigrees in which paternal transmission of disease occu

Chromosomal region 15q11-q13 has been implicated to harbor a susceptibility gene or genes underlying autism. Evidence has been derived from the existence of cytogenetic anomalies in this region associated with autism, and the report of linkage in a modest collection of multiplex families. Most recen

Previous studies have indicated possible linkage of schizophrenia with chromosome 6p21-24. In an attempt to replicate these findings, we studied the linkage of schizophrenia with nine markers on chromosome 6p21-24 in 39 Taiwanese schizophrenic nuclear families with at least two affected siblings.

Arthrogryposis is a heterogeneous birth defect characterized by limitation of movement at multiple joints. One in 3,000 infants is born with arthrogryposis, and at least a third of these cases have a genetic cause. Four distinct types of X-linked arthrogryposis have been reported, and a severe letha

Genetic epidemiology has provided consistent evidence over many years that schizophrenia has a genetic component, and that this genetic component is complex, polygenic, and involves epistatic interaction between loci. Molecular genetics studies have, however, so far failed to identify any DNA varian
