Splitting schizophrenia: periodic catatonia-susceptibility locus on chromosome 15q15G Stober
1Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Wurzburg, 97080 Wurzburg, Germany

Parent-of-origin effect and evidence for differential transmission in periodic catatoniaG Stober
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, Germany
Psychiatr Genet 8:213-9. 1998..021). We therefore propose that parent-of-origin effects as well as prenatal mortality and psychosocial factors need further investigation in the periodic catatonia subtype of schizophrenia...
Gender differences and age of onset in the catatonic subtypes of schizophreniaG Stober
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, Germany
Psychopathology 31:307-12. 1998..8% in late-onset probands. Our findings substantiate the hypothesis that periodic catatonia is a clinically homogenous disorder with a major gene effect and an age at onset which is to a large extent genetically determined...
hKCNN3 which maps to chromosome 1q21 is not the causative gene in periodic catatonia, a familial subtype of schizophreniaG Stober
Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Wurzburg, Germany
Eur Arch Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 250:163-8. 2000..Linkage mapping showed segregation with marker D1S498 (theta = 0.05) and placed hKCNN3 in the genetic linkage map in a cluster of genes near the centromeric region of chromosome 1...
Susceptibility for schizophrenia is not influenced by a functional insertion/deletion variant in the promoter of the serotonin transporter geneG Stober
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, Germany
Eur Arch Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 248:82-6. 1998..00004. Our findings indicate that both polymorphisms are unlikely to play a substantial role in the genetic predisposition to schizophrenic disorders...
Linkage and family-based association study of schizophrenia and the synapsin III locus that maps to chromosome 22q13G Stober
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, Federal Republic of Germany
Am J Med Genet 96:392-7. 2000..In addition, no evidence for gender differences or parent-of-origin effects were found. Thus, the synapsin III locus at chromosome 22q13 is not likely to contain a schizophrenia susceptibility gene...
Association analysis of the functional monoamine oxidase A gene promoter polymorphism in psychiatric disordersY V Syagailo
Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Wuerzburg, Wuerzburg, Germany
Am J Med Genet 105:168-71. 2001..Our results suggest that there is no association between MAOA-LPR genotype and susceptibility to recurrent major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia in our population...
Mosaicism for a serotonin transporter gene promoter-associated deletion: decreased recombination in depressionK P Lesch
Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Wurzburg, Federal Republic of Germany
J Neural Transm 106:1223-30. 1999..The findings confirm that the pericentric region of human chromosome 17 is highly unstable and furnishs additional evidence for intricate complexity of 5HTT regulation under physiological condition and in disease...
Exclusion of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha7 subunit gene as a candidate for catatonic schizophrenia in a large family supporting the chromosome 15q13-22 locusJ Meyer
Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Wuerzburg, Wuerzburg, Germany
Mol Psychiatry 7:220-3. 2002..This result provides strong evidence that a gene located telomeric to CHRNA7 is causative for the pathogenesis of catatonic schizophrenia in this family...
Exposure to prenatal infections, genetics and the risk of systematic and periodic catatoniaG Stober
Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, University of Wurzburg, Wurzburg, Federal Republic of Germany
J Neural Transm 109:921-9. 2002..These findings support the hypothesis that distinct schizophrenia phenotypes are based on different etiological mechanisms...

Biol Psychiatry 45:1585-91. 1999....
Norepinephrine transporter gene (NET) variants in patients with panic disorderP G Sand
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, FĂĽchsleinstrazze 15, D 97080, Wurzburg, Germany
Neurosci Lett 333:41-4. 2002..Except for a silent substitution (G1287A), overall frequencies of variant alleles were low (< or =0.016). None of the variants under study was found to be associated with PD regardless of an additional diagnosis of agoraphobia...
Polymorphic MAO-A and 5-HT-transporter genes: analysis of interactions in panic disorderP Sand
Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, Fuchsleinstr 15, 97080 Wurzburg, Germany
World J Biol Psychiatry 1:147-50. 2000..There was no significant difference in odds ratios, suggesting that the observed increase of genetic liability by the long MAO-A gene promoter allele is not modified by the 5-HTT gene promoter polymorphism...
