TL;DR: In this article, a centralized analysis pipeline was applied to a SCZ cohort of 21,094 cases and 20,227 controls and the authors observed a global enrichment of CNV burden in cases (OR=1.11, P=5.7e −15 ), which persisted after excluding loci implicated in previous studies.

TL;DR: The elevated levels of circulating serum microRNA (miRNA) levels were shown to be relatively specific to schizophrenia, as no significant difference was observed between 400 control subjects and 162 subjects with nonschizophrenia psychiatric disorders, including major depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other atypical psychiatric diseases.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for detecting and quantitatively determining a target nucleic acid sequence in a sample, which comprises contacting the sample with a primer and a zymogene which encodes, but which itself is the anti-sense sequence of, a catalytic nucleic acids sequence, is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the DNA sequence specificity of hedamycin damage was compared using two techniques: Ligation-mediated PCR (LMPCR) and Linear Amplification (LA).

TL;DR: Results indicate that the N7 of guanine is not required in the formation of some cisplatin adducts, which would indicate that DNA polymerase blocking lesions formed at relatively weak sites are not required.
