Abstract excerpt
Schizophrenia's pathogenesis remains elusive. Cognitive dysfunction is the endophenotype and outcome predictor of schizophrenia. The LIM and SH3 domain protein (LASP1) protein, a component of CNS synapses and dendritic spines, has been related to the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) dysfunction hypothesis and schizophrenia. A single-nucleotide polymorphism (rs979607) in the LASP1 gene promoter region has...
