When drug‐induced psychoses were first identified in the mid‐20th century, schizophrenia
was considered a discrete disease with a likely genetic cause. Consequently, drug‐induced …

Genetic epidemiological studies strongly suggest that additive and interactive genes, each
with small effects, mediate the genetic vulnerability for schizophrenia. With the human …

Schizophrenia is a complex, devastating brain disorder with clear genetic and
environmental contributions to the emergence of the disease. In the last several decades of …

The power and appeal of the molecular biology mantra,''DNA to RNA to protein,''to explicate
cell biology comes from its universal appearance and application in all species, from …

The findings to date are promising and provide us a better understanding of the
development of side effects and response to antipsychotics. However, more comprehensive …

We present an overview of current progress and future directions in the molecular genetics
of schizophrenia. We review linkage studies, involving the genome-wide scan of …

The prevalent view today is that schizophrenia is a syndrome rather than a specific disease.
Liability to schizophrenia is highly heritable. It appears that multiple genetic and …

A long-standing tradition in personality research in psychology, and nowadays increasingly
in psychiatry, is that psychotic and psychotic-like thoughts are considered common …

Despite the complexities of schizophrenia, notable progress has been achieved in its
diagnosis and treatment over the last 25 years. In this article we review the genetic research …

Schizophrenia is a highly heritable disorder, but the identification of specific genes has
proven to be a difficult endeavour. Genes involved in the dopaminergic system are …
