    Analysis of protocadherin alpha gene deletion variant in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia

  • Original language description

    The cell adhesion proteins cadherins and protocadherins, through their effects on neuronal differentiation, synaptogenesis, and brain development, are feasible targets to consider in schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar disorder (BD) pathogenesis. Allelic variation occurring in protocadherin and cadherin encoding genes that map to regions of the genome targeted in SZ and BD linkage studies are particularly strong candidates to consider as underlying susceptibility factors. One such set of candidate genes is the 5q31-linked PCDH family. A polymorphic copy number variation in this locus, a 16.7 kilobase (kb) deletion affecting PCDH-? exons 8-10 (?8-?10?), was analyzed in this study in a cohort of European Caucasian patients with SZ and a cohort of patients with BD from the Czech Republic, and corresponding controls. No differences in allele distribution were detected in either group. While theoretical considerations and linkage studies suggest that the 5q31-linked PCDH genes should be viewed a

    Analýza delece v genu pro protocadherin alfa u pacientů s bipolární poruchou a schizofrenií

  • Czech description

    Kadheriny a protokadheriny jsou díky svému vlivu na neuronální diferenciaci, synaptogenezi a vývoj mozku pravděpodobnými faktory v patogenezi bipolární poruchy a schizofrenie. V této studii jsme analyzovali variantu počtu kopií, deleci o velikosti 16,7 kb, která postihuje exony 8-10 genu pro protokadherin alfa. Analýzu jsme provedli v souboru pacientů se schizofrenií z Evropy a v souboru pacientů s bipolární poruchou z České republiky a u odpovídajících kontrol. V žádné skupině jsme nezjistili rozdíl vdistribuci alel. Přesto, že protokadherin alfa se může teoreticky podílet na rozvoji psychiatrických poruch, výsledky naší studie tuto možnost v analyzovaných populacích nepotvrzují.
