- W2041406567 abstract "Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a mental disease that affects approximately 1% of the population with life-long devastating consequences. Based on evidence for a major contribution of genetic factors, a decade of extensive efforts has been dedicated to the search of DNA sequence variations that increase the risk to SCZ. Search for genes in rare multiplex SCZ families with a large number of affected individuals and quasi-Mendelian mode of inheritance using genetic linkage methodology has been one of the favorite strategies in psychiatric genetics. Although several genomic regions were suggested for linkage to SCZ, not a single gene causing or predisposing to SCZ has been identified thus far. Furthermore, it is not clear whether the genes of familial SCZ are also involved in sporadic cases that represent the overwhelming majority of SCZ patients. For sporadic cases, genetic association studies comparing the distribution of allelic frequencies of candidate genes in SCZ patients and controls have been performed but the outcome of such studies has also been quite modest. Several factors such as possible involvement of numerous interactive genes of minor effect, yet unknown environmental effects and diagnostic ambiguities of the disease have made genetic studies in SCZ quite unproductive. In terms of future studies, a genome-wide association search is a promising approach; however, this approach requires genotyping of thousands of genetic markers in large samples. In addition, a detailed analysis of the genes, expression of which changes under the influence of environmental factors, can indicate good candidates for genetic association studies. In this connection, investigations of the epigenetic regulation of genes and not only the DNA sequence variation, may be necessary for complete understanding of the etiopathogenic mechanisms of SCZ." @default.
