Recently, it has been suggested that trinucleotide repeat-containing genes may be involved in the etiology of schizophrenia. This study was aimed at investigating putative associations between allelic variants or expansions of CAG repeat-containing genes (CAGrCG) and schizophrenia or its variability
The monoamine oxidases (MAO-A and MAO-B) are the enzymes primarily responsible for the degradation of amine neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. Wide variations in activity of these isozymes have been reported in control humans. The MAOA and MAOB genes are located next
Gap junctions are cell junctions found between most cells and tissues. They contain membrane channels that mediate the cell-to-cell diffusion of ions, metabolites, and small cell signaling molecules. Cellcell communication mediated by gap junctions has been proposed to have a variety of functions, i
Kallmann syndrome and schizophrenia share several clinical features, including dysfunctional olfactory ability, hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism, an excess of affected males, and psychiatric presentation. Because of this congruence, it has been proposed that up to 70% of male schizophrenics might have
