Risk-Conferring Glutamatergic Genes and Brain Glutamate Plus Glutamine in Schizophrenia
12 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
Background: The proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) signals from glutamate, (or the combined glutamate and glutamine signal -Glx) have been found to be greater in various brain regions in people with schizophrenia. Recently, the Psychiatric Genetics Consortium, PGC) reported that several common single-nucleotide-polymorphisms (SNPs) in glutamate-related genes confer increased risk of schizophrenia....
