Association between polymorphisms in the genes for tumor suppressor protein p53 and its regulator NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) and schizophrenia in a Syrian study cohort.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The contribution of genetic factors to the susceptibility for developing schizophrenia is well established. Several hypotheses have been developed in an attempt to identify the pathophysiological mechanisms in schizophrenia, with several findings implicating an important role for apoptosis. A limited number of studies investigated the effects of polymorphisms in apoptotic genes on the...
