Systematic screening for mutations in the human N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 1 gene in schizophrenic patients from the German population.

abstract：:Although current psychiatric nosology separates bipolar disorder and schizophrenia into non-overlapping categories, there is growing evidence of a partial aetiological overlap between them from linkage, genetic epidemiology and molecular genetics studies. Thus, it is important to determine whether genes implicated in ...
