Abstract excerpt
This study investigates the genetic association between methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) gene polymorphisms and schizophrenia. A total of 200 family trios consisting of fathers, mothers, and affected offspring with schizophrenia were recruited as our participants. Four tag SNPs on MBD1 (rs125555, rs140689, rs140687, and rs140686), three tag SNPs on MBD2 (rs3876254, , and ), and three tag SNPs on...
