Several putative schizophrenia susceptibility genes have recently been identified. Significant associations between schizophrenia and neuregulin 1 (NRG1) and dysbindin (DTNBP1) were first reported in 2002 and studies in several populations have since independently reported positive associations to these gene regions. Further, both tentative functional and genetic data have implicated the role of AKT1 in the...
