Abstract excerpt
As genetic and environmental influences on schizophrenia might converge on DNA methylation (DNAm) within loci which are both associated with the disease and implicated in response to environmental stress, we examined whether DNAm within CYP17A1, a hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis gene which is situated within the schizophrenia risk locus 10q24.32, would mediate genetic and environmental effects on...
