Fibroblast growth factors in schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia bulletin - 1 Nov 2010

Terwisscha van Scheltinga Afke F, Bakker Steven C, Kahn René S

Abstract excerpt

A large association study by O'Donovan et al recently suggested that genetic variation in fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 2 increases the risk for developing schizophrenia. Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are part of the family of glial growth factors; they control the growth and patterning of specific brain structures and regulate the maintenance and repair of neuronal tissues. In addition, a direct...
