Does the genotype for schizophrenia often remain unexpressed because of canalization and stochastic events during development?

Psychological medicine - 1 May 1997

Woolf C M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: It has been well established in the literature that a strong genetic component exists for schizophrenia. Available data are compatible with the hypothesis that for most cases of schizophrenia, the genetic component consists of multiple genes acting in an additive manner with the genotype for schizophrenia being present when the number of genes is greater than a threshold number. Twin studies suggest...
