Quantitation of X-Y homologous genes in patients with schizophrenia by multiplex polymerase chain reaction.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The main aim of the current study was to investigate epigenetic alterations in serotonin 2A receptor (HTR2A) exon I CpG sites as possible risk factors for suicidal behavior. We also aimed to analyze the epigenetic alterations in two different tissues as epigenetic mechanisms are tissue specific. These epigene...
