Department of Psychiatry and Neurology, Hamamatsu University School of Medicine, Hamamatsu, Japan
Am J Med Genet B Neuropsychiatr Genet 147:1019-27. 2008..Abnormalities of ROBO may lead to autism either by interfering with serotonergic system, or by disrupting neurodevelopment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report relating ROBO with autism...
A promoter haplotype of the inositol monophosphatase 2 gene (IMPA2) at 18p11.2 confers a possible risk for bipolar disorder by enhancing transcriptionTetsuo Ohnishi
Laboratory for Molecular Psychiatry, RIKEN Brain Science Institute, Saitama, Japan
Neuropsychopharmacology 32:1727-37. 2007..In conclusion, the present study suggests that a promoter haplotype of IMPA2 possibly contributes to risk for bipolar disorder by elevating IMPA2 levels in the brain, albeit the genetic effect varies among populations...

Genetic and expression analyses of the STOP (MAP6) gene in schizophreniaHiromitsu Shimizu
Laboratory for Molecular Psychiatry, RIKEN Brain Science Institute, Wako, Saitama 351 0198, Japan
Schizophr Res 84:244-52. 2006..These data suggest that the contribution of MAP6 to the processes that lead to schizophrenia should be further investigated...
Distinguishable haplotype blocks in the HTR3A and HTR3B region in the Japanese reveal evidence of association of HTR3B with female major depressionKazuo Yamada
Laboratory for Molecular Psychiatry, RIKEN Brain Science Institute, Wako, Kawaguchi, Saitama, Japan
Biol Psychiatry 60:192-201. 2006..But the polymorphisms highlighted in these reports map to different locations in the two genes, therefore it is unclear which gene exerts a stronger effect on susceptibility...
