Genome-wide location analysis

Meta-analysis of the 20 genome-wide scans for linkage to schizophrenia has identified loci on 16 of the auto-somes at which susceptibility genes are likely located[5]. Thus far, there is no evidence for autosomal dominant/ recessive Mendelian-like genes that would account for schizophrenia. Potential risk genes will be discussed in the section Cellular and Molecular Studies.
