Background:Genome wide association studies(GWAS)have identified many genetic variants associated with increased risk of Alzheimer^disease(AD).These susceptibility loci may effect AD indirectly through a combination of...
The current research was grounded in prior interdisciplinary research that showed cognitive ability (verbal ability for translating cognitions into oral language) and multiple-working memory endophenotypes (behavioral...

New findings in schizophrenia genetics are based on genome-wide association studies(GWAS), research into DNA copy number variations(CNVs), and endophenotypes. More than 70 genes have recently been suspected to be invo...

Objective The existence of neuropsychological deficits has been implicated in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), particularly memory, attention, and executive functions. However, few studies have focused on neurop...

Cognitive deficits are now recognized widely as core features of schizophrenia, and as major contributors to the clinical outcome of the disorder. They are also studied widely as 'endophenotypes', reflecting a growing...

The study of endophenotypes may be a viable strategy to tackle the genetic complexity and phenotypic heterogeneity of psychosis, but this research direction is relatively under-developed in China as compared to Wester...
