摘要
A dysfunctional glutamatergic system has been implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The group III metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) types 7 acid 8 presynaptically inhibit glutamate release, thereby modulating glutamatergic transmission in the brain. We conducted association studies to investigate the novel Tyr433Phe (mGluR7) variant and the 2846-C/T (mGluR8) polymorphism in schizophrenia. Both variants, present at high frequencies, failed to demonstrate any significant association with schizophrenia (mGluR7 [Tyr433Phe] allele: P = 0.33: genotype: P = 0.63; mGluR8 [2846-C/T] allele: P = 0.72; genotype: P = 0.63).
