Recent reports indicate that DAO, DAOA, DTNBP1, NRG1 and RGS4 are some of the most-replicated genes implicated in susceptibility to schizophrenia. Also, the functions of these genes could converge in a common pathway of glutamate metabolism. The aim of this study was to evaluate if each of these genes, or their interaction, was associated with schizophrenia. A case-control study was conducted in 589 Spanish patients having a diagnosis of schizophrenia, and compared with 617 equivalent control subjects. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in each gene were determined in all individuals. SNP and haplotype frequencies were compared between cases and controls. The interaction between different SNPs at the same, or at different gene, loci was analyzed by the multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method. We found a new schizophrenia risk and protective haplotypes in intron VII of DTNBP1; one of the most important candidate genes for this disorder, to-date. However, no association was found between DAO, DAOA, NRG1 and RGS4 and schizophrenia. The hypothesis that gene-gene interaction in these five genes could increase the risk for the disorder was not confirmed in the present study. In summary, these results may provide further support for an association between the dysbindin gene (DTNBP1) and schizophrenia, but not between the disease and DAO, DAOA, NRG1 and RGS4 or with the interaction of these genes. In the light of recent data, these results need to be interpreted with caution and future analyses with dense genetic maps are awaited. 相似文献

Mutation analysis of the human dystrobrevin-binding protein 1 gene in schizophrenic patients 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Recent molecular genetic studies have reported a positive association of schizophrenia with several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes from the human dystrobrevin-binding protein 1 (DTNBP1) gene locus on chromosome 6p. This finding suggests that the DTNBP1 gene is likely a susceptible gene for schizophrenia. Because all the SNPs showing positive association with schizophrenia locate at the intronic sequences of the DTNBP1 gene, we set out to search for mutations in the protein-coding sequences and at the 5' promoter region of the DTNBP1 gene to investigate if the DTNBP1 gene is a schizophrenia-susceptible gene. We directly sequenced the cDNA of DTNBP1 gene in 50 schizophrenic patients and the 5' promoter region of the DTNBP1 genomic DNA in 94 schizophrenia patients. No mutations were identified in either the protein-coding sequences or the 5' promoter region of the human DTNBP1 gene in this sample. Thus, in contrast to prior studies reporting positive association of the DTNBP1 gene with schizophrenia in both Irish and German population, our data indicate that the human DTNBP1 is unlikely a major susceptible gene for schizophrenia in Chinese Han patients from Taiwan. 相似文献

Several putative schizophrenia susceptibility genes have recently been identified. Significant associations between schizophrenia and neuregulin 1 (NRG1) and dysbindin (DTNBP1) were first reported in 2002 and studies in several populations have since independently reported positive associations to these gene regions. Further, both tentative functional and genetic data have implicated the role of AKT1 in the genetic background of this disorder. However, findings have not been consistent in all populations. We investigated the allelic diversity of these three genes NRG1, DTNBP1 and AKT1 in a representative nation-wide study sample of 441 Finnish schizophrenia families consisting of 865 affected individuals, in order to assess their role in one of the largest population-based study samples. DTNBP1 and AKT1 failed to show evidence of association, whereas two SNPs in the 3' region of the NRG1 gene yielded suggestive evidence of association (p=0.012 and p=0.048) in family-based association analyses. Thus, our study does not indicate that AKT1 or DTNBP1 play a role in the etiology of schizophrenia in the Finnish population. Furthermore, results do not support a major role for NRG1, but we cannot completely exclude a minor role of this gene in the Finnish population. 相似文献

Identifying potential risk haplotypes for schizophrenia at the DTNBP1 locus in Han Chinese and Scottish populations 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The dystrobrevin-binding protein 1 (DTNBP1) gene on chromosome 6p has emerged as a potential susceptibility gene for schizophrenia. Although a number of attempts to replicate the original association finding have been successful, they have not identified any obvious pathogenic variants or a single at risk haplotype common to all populations studied. In the present study we attempted further replication in an independent sample of 638 nuclear families from the Han Chinese population of Sichuan Province, SW China. We also examined 580 Scottish schizophrenic cases and 620 controls. We genotyped 10 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DTNBP1 that were used in the original report of association, plus rs2619538 (SNP 'A') in the putative promoter region, which has also been associated with schizophrenia. In the Chinese trios we found that two SNPs (P1635 and P1765) were significantly overtransmitted, but with alleles opposite to those reported in the original studies. SNPs P1757 and P1765 formed a common haplotype, which also showed significant overtransmission. In the Scottish cases and controls, no individual markers were significantly associated with schizophrenia. A single haplotype, which included rs2619538 and P1583, and one rare haplotype, composed of P1320 and P1757, were significantly associated with schizophrenia, but no previously reported haplotypes were associated. Based on the data from the Chinese population, our results provide statistical support for DTNBP1 as a susceptibility gene for schizophrenia, albeit with haplotypes different from those of the original study. However, our lack of replication in the Scottish samples also indicates that caution is warranted when evaluating the robustness of the evidence for DTNBP1 as genetic risk factor for schizophrenia. 相似文献

Dystrobrevin binding protein 1 (DTNBP1), or dysbindin, is thought to be critical in regulating the glutamatergic system. While the dopamine pathway is known to be important in the aetiology of schizophrenia, it seems likely that glutamatergic dysfunction can lead to the development of schizophrenia. DTNBP1 is widely expressed in brain, levels are reduced in brains of schizophrenia patients and a DTNBP1 polymorphism has been associated with reduced brain expression. Despite numerous genetic studies no DTNBP1 polymorphism has been strongly implicated in schizophrenia aetiology. Using a haplotype block-based gene-tagging approach we genotyped 13 SNPs in DTNBP1 to investigate possible associations with DTNBP1 and schizophrenia. Four polymorphisms were found to be significantly associated with schizophrenia. The strongest association was found with an A/C SNP in intron 7 (rs9370822). Homozygotes for the C allele of rs9370822 were more than two and a half times as likely to have schizophrenia compared to controls. The other polymorphisms showed much weaker association and are less likely to be biologically significant. These results suggest that DTNBP1 is a good candidate for schizophrenia risk and rs9370822 is either functionally important or in disequilibrium with a functional SNP, although our observations should be viewed with caution until they are independently replicated. 相似文献

Several linkage studies have shown significant linkage of schizophrenia to chromosome 6p region, which includes the positional candidate genes, Dystrobrevin-binding protein 1 (DTNBP1). The aim was to examine the association evidence of the candidate gene in 693 Taiwanese families with at least two affected siblings of schizophrenia. We genotyped nine SNPs of this gene with average intermarker distance of 17 kb. Intermarker linkage disequilibrium was calculated with GOLD. Single locus and haplotype association analyses were performed with TRANSMIT program. We found no significant association between schizophrenia and DTNBP1 either through single locus or haplotype analyses. We failed to replicate the association evidence between DTNBP1 and schizophrenia and this gene may not play a major role in the etiology of schizophrenia in this Taiwanese family sample. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Abnormality of the V-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homologue 1 (AKT1) may be a predisposing factor in schizophrenia. Recent evidence supporting this hypothesis showed decreased AKT1 protein levels in patients with schizophrenia and significant association of AKT1 haplotypes according to the transmission disequilibrium test. METHODS: We provide the first replication of this evidence using a relatively large case-control sample (507 Japanese schizophrenia and 437 control subjects). We genotyped five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the original study and one additional SNP. RESULTS: We found a positive association with an SNP (SNP5) different from the original study's findings (SNP3) and also significance in the haplotypes constructed from the combination of SNP5. Linkage disequilibrium around SNP5 was complex and may produce this positive association. CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides support for the theory that AKT1 is a susceptibility gene for Japanese schizophrenia. Fine linkage disequilibrium mapping is required for a conclusive result. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: A family based association study in a British sample found the NOTCH4 gene to be associated with schizophrenia; however, all six replication studies failed to confirm the finding. METHODS: We performed a family based association study of NOTCH4 and schizophrenia in 123 trios (16 Japanese and 107 Chinese). In addition to the original study's polymorphisms, we examined four new single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)--SNPs_A, B, C and D--around SNP1 of the original study. We genotyped all samples for SNPs_A-D and for SNP1 and (CTG)n of the original study. RESULTS: We found no significant associations between NOTCH4 and schizophrenia or its subtypes for all polymorphisms, regardless of gender. The finding remained negative when the Chinese sample was analyzed separately. Exploratory analyses suggested that SNP_A may be associated with early-onset schizophrenia and that SNP1 may be associated with schizophrenia characterized by numerous negative symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: NOTCH4 is not a significant susceptibility gene for schizophrenia when clinical heterogeneity is ignored; however, NOTCH4 may be associated with early-onset schizophrenia or schizophrenia with many negative symptoms, but these findings should be interpreted cautiously. 相似文献

Background
The dystrobrevin-binding protein 1 (DTNBP1) gene is a susceptibility gene for schizophrenia. There is growing evidence that DTNPB1 contributes to intelligence and cognition. In this study, we investigated association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the DTNBP1 gene and intellectual functioning in patients with a first episode of schizophrenia or related psychotic disorder (first-episode psychosis, FEP), their healthy siblings, and unrelated controls. 相似文献11.

Inherited or acquired dysfunction of the dopamine system is believed to underlie the core symptoms of schizophrenia, and there are some evidences that dopamine transporter activity may be altered in schizophrenic patients. Therefore, dopamine transporter gene (DAT1) has been traditionally considered a probable candidate gene for the association study of schizophrenia. Until now, association studies of the dopamine transporter gene (DAT1) with schizophrenia have yielded largely negative results. However, these results cannot be regarded as conclusive in that they were all obtained from just a single marker, that is, 3' untranslated region variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR). We have therefore tried to find other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DAT1 gene and to use them as additional markers for the association study of schizophrenia. Searching for the SNPs had been done with 50 Korean schizophrenic patients. DNA sequences encompassing the whole exon and flanking exon-intron junctions were amplified and searched for the presence of SNPs. Total of five SNPs were found. Among these, three SNPs (1215A>G, 1398C>T, IVS11+14G>A) as well as the 3' untranslated region VNTR were selected as the markers to be genotyped. The allelic and genotypic frequencies of these markers were determined in 252 schizophrenic patients and 271 controls and compared between them. The frequencies of algorithmically derived haplotypes were also compared. No evidence of association was found between any of these markers and schizophrenia. The result using haplotypes was also negative. However, when the patient subgroup with verified familial history and the subgroup with early age of onset were re-analyzed, weak trend of association between 1398C>T SNP marker with schizophrenia was found in both cases. In accordance with the previous literature, we could not find any evidence of association between DAT1 gene and schizophrenia. This result acquired more certainty because not only the VNTR but several SNPs present in DAT1 gene and newly constructed haplotypes were also used as additional markers. However, the finding of weak association between one of the SNP markers (1398C>T) and the specific subgroups of schizophrenia patients added further support to the importance of defining more homogenous subgroups in association studies. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The gene encoding the dystrobrevin binding protein (DTNBP1) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia by several association studies. We tried to replicate these findings in a sample of 488 parent-proband trios recruited in Bulgaria. Probands had a diagnosis of schizophrenia (n = 441) or schizoaffective disorder (n = 47). METHODS: We genotyped eight single nucleotide polymorphisms within the gene, four of which had been reported in previous studies, and four identified as informative by our group through direct screening of the gene and genotyping in a sample of cases and control subjects. RESULTS: A significant excess of transmissions was observed for two of the markers, p1635 and p1757, (p =.0009 and.0013, respectively). Analysis of two-, three-, and four-marker haplotypes produced numerous positive results, with six (4% of the total combinations) at p <.001. CONCLUSIONS: These results provide strong support for DTNBP1 as a susceptibility gene for schizophrenia; however, different haplotypes seem to be associated in different studies. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Alterations in neurocognition may be fundamental to schizophrenia and may be endophenotypes. Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1, aliases NCAM and CD56) may be a candidate gene for schizophrenia or for neurocognition in schizophrenia as supported by linkage and functional findings. METHODS: Subjects were 641 patients with schizophrenia who participated in the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE) clinical trial. Neurocognition was assessed at study baseline. Nine NCAM1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were blindly genotyped. Analysis of covariance was used to test for single SNP associations and haplotype regression for multilocus associations. RESULTS: As there were suggestions of population stratification, all analyses were conducted stratified by inferred ancestry. In the "Europe only" stratum, there were nominally significant associations with five contiguous SNPs (rs1943620, rs1836796, rs1821693, rs686050, rs584427) with the strongest association at rs1836796 (p = .007).

A recent report showed significant associations between several SNPs in a previously unknown EST cluster with schizophrenia. (1). The cluster was identified as the human dystrobrevin binding protein 1 gene (DTNBP1) by sequence database comparisons and homology with mouse DTNBP1. (2). However, the linkage disequilibrium (LD) among the SNPs in DTNBP1 as well as the pattern of significant SNP-schizophrenia association was complex. This raised several questions such as the number of susceptibility alleles that may be involved and the size of the region where the actual disease mutation(s) could be located. To address these questions, we performed different single-marker tests on the 12 previously studied and 2 new SNPs in DTNBP1 that were re-scored using an improved procedure, and performed a variety of haplotype analyses. The sample consisted of 268 Irish multiplex families selected for high density of schizophrenia. Results suggested a simple structure where the LD in the target region could be explained by 6 haplotypes that together accounted for 96% of haplotype diversity in the whole sample. From these six, a single high-risk haplotype was identified that showed a significant association with schizophrenia and explained the pattern of significant findings in the analyses with individual markers. This haplotype was 30 kb long, had a large effect, could be measured with two tag SNPs only, had a frequency of 6% in our sample, seemed to be of relatively recent origin in evolutionary terms, and was equally distributed over Ireland. Implications of these findings for follow-up and replication studies are discussed. 相似文献

DTNBP1 is one of the most established susceptibility genes for schizophrenia, and hippocampal volume reduction is one of the major neuropathological findings in this severe disorder. Consistent with these findings, the encoded protein dysbindin-1 has been shown to be diminished in glutamatergic hippocampal neurons in schizophrenic patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two single nucleotide polymorphisms of DTNBP1 on grey matter volumes in human subjects using voxel-based morphometry. Seventy-two subjects were included and genotyped with respect to two single nucleotide polymorphisms of DTNBP1 (rs2619522 and rs1018381). All participants underwent structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI data were preprocessed and statistically analysed using standard procedures as implemented in SPM5 (Statistical Parametric Mapping), in particular the voxel-based morphometry (VBM) toolbox. We found significant effects of the DTNBP1 SNP rs2619522 bilaterally in the hippocampus as well as in the anterior middle frontal gyrus and the intraparietal cortex. Carriers of the G allele showed significantly higher grey matter volumes in these brain regions than T/T homozygotes. Compatible with previous findings on a role of dysbindin in hippocampal functions as well as in major psychoses, the present study provides first direct in vivo evidence that the DTNBP1 SNP rs2619522 is associated with variation of grey matter volumes bilaterally in the hippocampus. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Both microarray and candidate molecule studies have demonstrated that protein and mRNA expression of syntaxin and other genes involved in synaptic function are altered in the cerebral cortex of patients with schizophrenia. METHODS: Genetic association between polymorphic markers in the syntaxin 1A gene and schizophrenia was assessed in a matched case-control sample of 192 pairs, and in an independent sample of 238 nuclear families. RESULTS: In the family-based sample, a significant genetic association was found between schizophrenia and one of the four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) tested: an intron 7 SNP (transmission disequilibrium test [TDT] chi(2) = 5.898; df = 1; p =.015, family-based association test [FBAT] z = 2.280, p =.023). When the results for the TDT and case-control analyses were combined, the association was stronger (n = 430; z(c) = 2.859; p =.004). Haplotype analysis supported the association with several significant values that appear to be driven by the intron 7 SNP. Conclusions: The results should be treated with caution until replicated, but this is the first report of a genetic association between syntaxin 1A and schizophrenia. 相似文献

No evidence for association of the dysbindin gene [DTNBP1] with schizophrenia in an Irish population-based study 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

A recent family-based association study identified a putative association between variants in the dystrobrevin binding protein 1 (dysbindin) gene (DTNBP1) and schizophrenia. This study used a sample of 270 Irish pedigrees multiply affected with schizophrenia. We attempted to replicate these findings in an independent Irish sample of 219 schizophrenia cases and 231 controls. No evidence was found to suggest an association between the DTNBP1 gene and schizophrenia in our sample. Possible reasons for these findings are discussed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Several studies support the dysbindin (dystrobrevin binding protein 1) gene (DTNBP1) as a susceptibility gene for schizophrenia. We previously reported that variation at a specific 3-locus haplotype influences susceptibility to schizophrenia in a large United Kingdom (UK) Caucasian case-control sample. METHODS: Using similar methodology to our schizophrenia study, we have investigated this same 3-locus haplotype in a large, well-characterized bipolar sample (726 Caucasian UK DSM-IV bipolar I patients; 1407 ethnically matched controls). RESULTS: No significant differences were found in the distribution of the 3-locus haplotype in the full sample. Within the subset of bipolar I cases with predominantly psychotic episodes of mood disturbance (n = 133) we found nominally significant support for association at this haploptype (p < .042) and at SNP rs2619538 (p = .003), with a pattern of findings similar to that in our schizophrenia sample. This finding was not significant after correction for multiple testing. CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that variation at the polymorphisms examined does not make a major contribution to susceptibility to bipolar disorder in general. They are consistent with the possibility that DTNBP1 influences susceptibility to a subset of bipolar disorder cases with psychosis. However, our subset sample is small and the hypothesis requires testing in independent, adequately powered samples. 相似文献
