CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our results show that rs16969968 on CHRNA5 is tightly linked to genetic susceptibility, psychotic symptoms and cognitive deficits in SCZ in an early-onset Chinese population, suggesting that CHRNA5 may play an important role in the etiology of SCZ. 30366711 2019
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Our findings suggest that genome-wide variants shared between smoking quantity and schizophrenia contribute to a common pathophysiology underlying these traits involving altered CHRNA5 expression in the brain. 30202994 2019
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE This study is to explore the potential association between CHRNA5 (OMIM#118505) polymorphisms and schizophrenia susceptibility in a Chinese population. 31342675 2019
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE One cis-eQTL, rs16969968, results in a functionally disruptive missense mutation in CHRNA5, a schizophrenia-implicated gene. 30142156 2018
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In addition, heaviness of smoking (proxied by a variant in the CHRNA5-A3-B4 gene cluster) and risk of depression and schizophrenia have been investigated, with no evidence of a causal effect of smoking on depression but some evidence of a causal effect on schizophrenia. 28921935 2018
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 GeneticVariation disease GWASCAT Meta-analysis of GWAS of over 16,000 individuals with autism spectrum disorder highlights a novel locus at 10q24.32 and a significant overlap with schizophrenia. 28540026 2017
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Recently, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human CHRNA5 gene, encoding the α5 nAChR subunit, that increase the risks for both smoking and schizophrenia. 28112735 2017
CUI: C0036341
Disease: Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia
0.480 Biomarker disease PSYGENET Variants in the 15q25 gene cluster are associated with risk for schizophrenia/bipolar illness, negative symptoms of schizophrenia, and influence CHRNA5 expression in the brain and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. 23196875 2013
