Common variants conferring risk of schizophrenia

Hreinn Stefansson, +94 more
- 06 Aug 2009 - 
TL;DR: Findings implicating the MHC region are consistent with an immune component to schizophrenia risk, whereas the association with NRGN and TCF4 points to perturbation of pathways involved in brain development, memory and cognition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rare loss-of-function variants in SETD1A are associated with schizophrenia and developmental disorders

Tarjinder Singh, +61 more
- 01 Apr 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found a genome-wide significant association between rare loss-of-function (LoF) variants in SETD1A and risk for schizophrenia (P = 3.3 × 10−9).
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants at VRK2 and TCF4 conferring risk of schizophrenia

Stacy Steinberg, +82 more
TL;DR: An expanded set of variants in the major histocompatibility complex region, near neurogranin (NRGN) and in an intron of transcription factor 4 (TCF4), and two novel variants showing genome-wide significant association are found.
