Failure to find associations of the CA repeat polymorphism in the first intron and the Gly-63/Glu-63 polymorphism of the neurotrophin-3 gene with schizophrenia.

Abstract excerpt

This study aimed to replicate positive associations between polymorphisms of the neurotrophin-3 gene and schizophrenia. The reported associations, which were the results of searching for mutations in the locus in schizophrenics under the hypothesis of neurodevelopmental etiology of schizophrenia, are that the states carrying the (CA)23 allele of the CA repeat in the first intron have a 2.56-fold increased risk of...
