Abstract excerpt

Schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BPD) are two severe psychiatric diseases with a strong genetic component. In agreement with the 'continuum theory', which suggests an overlap between these disorders, the existence of genes that affect simultaneously susceptibility to SZ and BPD has been hypothesized. In this study we performed a 7.5 cM genome scan in a sample of 16 families affected by SZ and BPD, all...
