Abstract:
:This Editorial highlights a study by Xia and coworkers in the current issue of the Journal of Neurochemistry, in which the authors reveal a possible mechanistic link between DISC1 (disrupted-in-schizophrenia-1), a genetic risk factor for schizophrenia, and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) that is also linked with schizophrenia. The authors show that perturbed communication between DISC1 and NMDARs represents a hidden perpetrator for abnormal dendritic and synaptic maturation. Read the highlighted article 'DISC1, astrocytes and neuronal maturation: a possible mechanistic link with implications for mental disorders' on page 518.
