Abstract excerpt
Previous linkage studies have identified chromosome 8q24 as a promising positional candidate region to search for bipolar disorder (BP) susceptibility genes. We, therefore, sought to identify BP susceptibility genes on chromosome 8q24 using a family-based association study of a dense panel of SNPs selected to tag the known common variation across the region of interest. A total of 1,458 SNPs across 16 Mb of 8q24...
