[2] The causes of schizophrenia may include genetic and environmental factors. [7] Genetic factors include a variety of common and rare genetic variants. [21] Possible environmental factors...
Both of these traits have a clear genetic component and can thus be called endophenotypes. [5] A strong candidate for schizophrenia endophenotype is prepulse inhibition, the ability to...
the link between altered brain function and the symptoms and development of schizophrenia.[1]... for schizophrenia, published in 2015, was the first genetic evidence for the broad...
common genetic variants (via genome-wide association studies) and more than 20 rare variants (via whole-exome sequencing and copy number variant studies) as risk factors for schizophrenia....
An international study involving UCL has made advances in understanding the ways in which genetic risk factors alter gene function in schizophrenia.
By studying the genomes of more than 24,000 individuals, researchers discovered rare genetic mutations that may shed light on mechanisms underlying schizophrenia.
However, the researchers cannot exclude a reverse cause-and-effect relationship, meaning that cannabis use could contribute to the risk of schizophrenia. The study also found a genetic...

Schizophrenia is a highly heritable disorder. Genetic risk is conferred by a large number of alleles, including common alleles of small effect that might be detected by genome-wide association stud...
