The genetic overlap between schizophrenia and height.

Schizophrenia research - 1 Dec 2013

Bacanu Silviu-Alin, Chen Xianging, Kendler Kenneth S

Abstract excerpt

Epidemiological studies suggest that height and schizophrenia risk are inversely correlated. These findings might arise because i) height and schizophrenia share genetic variants and ii) the effects of these shared variants are in opposite direction for the two traits. We use genome wide association data to empirically evaluate these hypotheses. We find that variants which impact on height and risk for...
