Autistic-like phenotypes in Cadps2-knockout mice and aberrant CADPS2 splicing in autistic patients.

TL;DR: It is shown that Cadps2-knockout mice not only have impaired brain-derived neurotrophic factor release but also show autistic-like cellular and behavioral phenotypes, and the results suggest that a disturbance in CADPS2-mediated neurotrophin release contributes to autism susceptibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fabp7 Maps to a Quantitative Trait Locus for a Schizophrenia Endophenotype

TL;DR: The results suggest that FABP7 plays a novel and crucial role, linking the NMDA, neurodevelopmental, and glial theories of schizophrenia pathology and the PPI endophenotype, with larger or overt effects in males.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic analysis of the calcineurin pathway identifies members of the EGR gene family, specifically EGR3, as potential susceptibility candidates in schizophrenia.

TL;DR: The previous genetic association of altered calcineurin signaling with schizophrenia pathogenesis is supported and EGR3 is identified as a compelling susceptibility gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide expression analysis detects eight genes with robust alterations specific to bipolar I disorder: relevance to neuronal network perturbation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the expression levels of more than 12,000 genes in Brodmann's Area (BA), 46 (dorsolateral prefrontal cortex) from bipolar I disorder and control samples using Affymetrix GeneChips.
