The complement system is crucial for innate immunity and has been linked to autoimmune and psychiatric disorders. Borbye-Lorenzen et al. perform GWASs and PheWASs of neonatal C3/C4 protein concentrations, finding multiple genome-wide significant loci, and identify sex-specific associations between C3 protein concentration and C4 copy number with risk for schizophrenia.
补体系统对于先天免疫至关重要,并且与自身免疫和精神疾病有关。Borbye-Lorenzen 等人对新生儿 C3/C4 蛋白浓度进行了 GWAS 和 PheWAS 分析,发现了多个全基因组显著位点,并确定了 C3 蛋白浓度与 C4 拷贝数之间与精神分裂症风险的性别特异性关联。
