title: [Linkage analysis of susceptibility genes for familial schizophrenia on chromosome 1 in Chinese population].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the molecular genetic relationship between chromosome 1 and susceptibility genes for familial schizophrenia in Chinese population.
  
  
  METHODS
  A genome scanning was conducted in 32 multiplex pedigrees from Chinese population by using 29 microsatellite markers on chromosome 1.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Multipoint parametric analysis detected a maximum heterogenicity Lod of 1.70 at 262.52 cM under a recessive model; multipoint non-parametric analysis detected a maximum non-parameter linkage (NPL) of 1.71 (P=0.046) at 262.52 cM, then 1.37 (P=0.086) at 149.70 cM, corresponding to marker D1S206 and D1S425 respectively.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  These results give further supports to the presence of susceptibility genes on chromosome 1q for familial schizophrenia.
