In a first study that uncovers genetic evidence for the underlying causes of schizophrenia, researchers have identified a biological pathway that is common for both schizophrenia and a disorder associated with autism and learning difficulties. The team found that a disruption of the gene TOP3B, an exceedingly rare occurrence in most parts of the world, is fairly common in a uniquely genetically distinct founder population from North-eastern Finland. In this population, ...Tuesday, 6 August 2013
Common Biological Pathway Linking Schizophrenia and Autism Disorder Found
In a first study that uncovers genetic evidence for the underlying causes of schizophrenia, researchers have identified a biological pathway that is common for both schizophrenia and a disorder associated with autism and learning difficulties. The team found that a disruption of the gene TOP3B, an exceedingly rare occurrence in most parts of the world, is fairly common in a uniquely genetically distinct founder population from North-eastern Finland.
