Susceptibility to schizophrenia
Variant & Polymorphism SNP , other
  • polymorphism rs12807809 located upstream of the neurogranin (NRGN) gene has been identified as a risk variant for schizophrenia
  • Candidate gene may have a role in neurocognitive and behavioral defects in the 11qter deletion disorder DEL11QD (Coldren 2009)
    Marker
  • NRGN and NPTXR concentrations in CSF are promising synaptic dysfunction biomarkers reflecting pathological changes in AD
  • Therapy target
