Cross-Platform Validation of Neurotransmitter Release Impairments in Schizophrenia Patient-Derived <i>NRXN1</i> -Mutant Neurons
2020-11-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Heterozygous NRXN1 deletions constitute the most prevalent currently known single-gene mutation predisposing to schizophrenia. Previous studies showed that engineered heterozygous NRXN1 deletions impaired neurotransmitter release in human neurons, suggesting a synaptic pathophysiological mechanism. Utilizing this observation for drug discovery, however, requires confidence in its robustness an...
