Genetic Variations in Evolutionary Accelerated Regions Disrupt Cognition in Schizophrenia
2021-02-26
Abstract excerpt
Cognition is believed to be a product of human evolution, while schizophrenia is ascribed as the by-product with cognitive impairment as it’s genetically mediated endophenotype. Genomic loci associated with these traits are enriched with recent evolutionary markers such as Human accelerated regions (HARs). HARs are markedly different in humans since their divergence with chimpanzees and mostly regulate gene expres...
