A recent study reported that OLIG2 had a significant association with schizophrenia in the UK population. We genotyped three variants scattered among the genomic region of OLIG2, namely rs1005573, rs762178 and rs1059004 in a sample consisting of 329 schizophrenia patients and 288 controls. The results provide further evidence that the SNP rs762178 in OLIG2 seems to be a potential candidate in altering risk for schizophrenia in the Chinese Han population and worthy of further replication and functional study.
最近一项研究报告称,在英国人群中,少突胶质细胞转录因子2(OLIG2)与精神分裂症存在显著关联。我们对329例精神分裂症患者和288例对照组成的样本中的三个分布于OLIG2基因区域的变体进行了基因分型,即rs1005573、rs762178和rs1059004。结果进一步证明,OLIG2中的单核苷酸多态性(SNP)rs762178似乎是改变中国汉族人群精神分裂症风险的一个潜在候选因素,值得进一步重复研究和功能研究。
