A previous report [Blouin et al., 1998: Nat Genet 20:70-73] suggesting linkage to chromosomes 13q32 and 8p21 in families with schizophrenia led us to investigate these regions in a large set of 301 multiplex families with schizophrenia. Multipoint analyses failed to reveal evidence for linkage to any portion of chromosome 13, while only a weakly positive score was present on 8p using the identical marker reported in the earlier report. Failure to confirm the Blouin et al claims in a substantially larger cohort adds emphasis to the inconsistency of the findings concerning linkage in schizophrenia. Am. J. Med. Genet. (Neuropsychiatr. Genet.) 96:235-239, 2000.
先前一份报告[布洛因等人,1998年:《自然遗传学》20:70 - 73]表明,精神分裂症家族与13号染色体q32区域和8号染色体p21区域存在连锁关系,这促使我们在301个精神分裂症多发家系的大样本中对这些区域进行研究。多点分析未能揭示与13号染色体任何部分存在连锁关系的证据,而使用早期报告中相同的标记,8号染色体p区域仅出现微弱的阳性分数。在一个规模大得多的队列中未能证实布洛因等人的说法,这进一步凸显了精神分裂症连锁关系研究结果的不一致性。《美国医学遗传学杂志》(神经精神遗传学)96:235 - 239,2000年。
