Abstract excerpt
Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) is one of the most promising candidate genes for schizophrenia. A number of replication studies have been conducted, although the results were inconsistent and no susceptible variant has yet been identified. The inconsistency might be attributed to the ethnic difference in allele and haplotype frequencies. However, it is equally possible that one or more genes interacting with NRG1 may also be...
