Abstract excerpt
The biological function of ZNF804A rs1344706, the first genome-wide supported risk variant of schizophrenia, remains largely unknown. Based on the upregulating effect of ZNF804A on the expression of COMT, we hypothesize that ZNF804A may affect grey matter volume (GMV) by interacting with COMT. Voxel-based morphometry was applied to analyze the main and interaction effects of ZNF804A rs1344706 and COMT rs4680 on...
