To further investigate the role of SETD1A in the genetic etiology of schizophrenia in the Japanese population, we performed resequencing and association analyses. First, we resequenced the SETD1A coding regions of 974 patients with schizophrenia. Then, we genotyped variants, prioritized via resequencing, in 2,027 patients with schizophrenia and 2,664 controls. Next, we examined the association between SETD1A and schizophrenia in 3,001 patients with schizophrenia and 2,664 controls. Finally, we performed a retrospective chart review of patients with prioritized SETD1A variants. We identified two novel missense variants (p.Ser575Pro and p.Glu857Gln) via resequencing. We did not detect these variants in 4,691 individuals via genotyping. These variants were not significantly associated with schizophrenia in the association analysis. Additionally, we found that a schizophrenia patient with the p.Glu857Gln variant had developmental delays. In conclusion, novel SETD1A missense variants were exclusively identified in Japanese patients with schizophrenia. However, our study does not provide evidence for the contribution of these variants to the genetic etiology of schizophrenia in the Japanese population., Psychiatry Research. 2022, 310, 114481., 新大院博(医)第1133号}, school = {新潟大学, Niigata University}, title = {Novel missense SETD1A variants in Japanese patients with schizophrenia : Resequencing and association analysis}, year = {} }
