Single nucleotide polymorphisms within genes encoding microRNAs may alter the
expression of microRNAs and their target genes, contributing to the etiology of psychiatric …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, non-coding RNAs that regulate the stability and translation
of mRNA targets. Increasing evidence suggests that miRNAs could be involved in the …

miR-137, a brain-enriched microRNA, is involved in the control of neuronal proliferation,
differentiation, and dendritic arborization, all of which are important for proper neurogenesis …

Objectives: MicroRNA137 (miRNA137) regulates several gene expressions involved in
brain development, and a recent large genome wide association study (GWAS) revealed a …

Schizophrenia is one of the most common mental disorders to severely affect human health
worldwide. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within related genes are candidate …

Background: A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) within MIR137, the host gene for miR-
137, has been identified repeatedly as a risk factor for schizophrenia. Previous genetic …

MicroRNA may play a role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. A recent meta‐analysis
of genome‐wide association studies indicated a significant association between …

Abstract The Schizophrenia Psychiatric GWAS Consortium (PGC) has identified the
rs1625579 polymorphism in the MIR137 gene, which encodes miR-137, as the strongest …

Both genome wide association study (GWAS) and biochemical studies of Caucasian
populations indicate a robust association between the miR‐137 genetic variant rs1625579 …

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a common, complex and severe psychiatric disorder associated with
many different genetic and environmental risk factors. A recent genome-wide association …
