Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Neuroligin-4 is essential for proper brain function. Some studies indicate a close relationship between neuroligin-4 and several human psychiatric conditions. METHODS: The case-control method was used to study the association between nonspecific mental retardation (NSMR) and genetic variants of neuroligin-4 gene (NLGN4). Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs: rs5916271, rs7049300, rs6638575,...
