A Comprehensive Family-Based Replication Study of Schizophrenia Genes
AssociationN=28,251Karolina A. Aberg et al.(2013)· JAMA Psychiatry

This comprehensive family-based replication study tested 8,107 SNPs in 6,298 individuals (3,286 schizophrenia cases) from 1,811 nuclear families, following a meta-analysis of 18 schizophrenia GWAS studies. The study replicated major findings in TCF4 (P=2.53×10⁻¹⁰) and NOTCH4 (P=3.16×10⁻⁷), and identified novel susceptibility loci including POM121L2 (P=3.51×10⁻⁷), AS3MT (P=9.01×10⁻⁷), CNNM2 (P=6.07×10⁻⁷), and NT5C2 (P=4.09×10⁻⁷). Pathway analyses revealed significant enrichment in neuronal function (axonal guidance, neuronal systems, L1 cell adhesion) and immune system pathways (antigen processing, T-cell adhesion molecules).

About NKAIN2

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that interacts with the beta subunit of a sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase. A chromosomal translocation involving this gene is a cause of lymphoma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
