Abstract excerpt
The human gamma-aminobutyric acid type B (GABA(B)) receptor gene is a candidate gene for schizophrenia due to its chromosomal location and neurobiologic roles. In the present study, association analyses of genetic polymorphisms of the GABA(B) receptor gene with schizophrenia were carried out in 102 unrelated schizophrenic patients and 100 healthy controls, using a polymerase chain reaction-based, single-strand...
