Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Allelic variation in the gene encoding brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been associated with affective disorders, but generally not schizophrenia. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor variants may help clarify the status of schizoaffective disorder. AIMS: To test the hypothesis that BDNF haplotypes are associated with psychiatric illness marked by a prominent affective component. METHOD:...
