The impact of molecular genetics on our understanding of the psychoses
Br J Psychiatry.
1989 May.
Abstract
Studies demonstrating the linkage to separate chromosomal locations of Alzheimer's disease, manic depression, and schizophrenia require re-evaluation of our ideas of their genetic aetiology. This article reviews the findings, and explores the increasing contribution of the 'new genetics' to our understanding of the organic and functional psychoses.
