Research Abstract |
We collected neuroimaging and blood samples from monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs and from patients with schizophrenia. We recruited 62 healthy twin adults and 44 twin children. MEG recording of mismatch negativity(MMN) indicated that MMN is heritable. MMN was associated with genetic variation in the GRM3. These results suggest that MMN may be a useful intermediate phenotype for schizophrenia. We also showed that prefrontal cortex activation as measured by NIRS may be also heritable and that these indices were significantly reduced in early phases of schizophrenia, which indicates the usefulness of NIRS as an efficient intermediate phenotype for schizophrenia.
