Abstract excerpt
Psychiatric disorders affect 29% of the global population at least once in the lifespan, and genetic studies have proved a shared genetic basis among them, although the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. DNA methylation plays an important role in complex disorders and, remarkably, enrichment of common genetic variants influencing allele-specific methylation (ASM) has been reported among...
