Rare chromosomal deletions and duplications increase risk of schizophrenia
Open accessAbstract
Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder marked by hallucinations, delusions, cognitive deficits and apathy, with a heritability estimated at 73-90% (ref. 1). Inheritance patterns are complex, and the number and type of genetic variants involved are not understood. Copy number variants (CNVs) have been identified in individual patients with schizophrenia and also in neurodevelopmental disorders, but large-scale genome-wide surveys have not been performed. Here we report a genome-wide survey of rare CNVs in 3,391 patients with schizophrenia and 3,181 ancestrally matched controls, using high-density microarrays. For CNVs that were observed in less than 1% of the sample and were more than 100 kilobases in length, the total burden is increased 1.15-fold in patients with schizophrenia in comparison with controls. This effect was more pronounced for rarer, single-occurrence CNVs and for those that involved genes as opposed to those that did not. As expected, deletions were found within the region critical for velo-cardio-facial syndrome, which includes psychotic symptoms in 30% of patients. Associations with schizophrenia were also found for large deletions on chromosome 15q13.3 and 1q21.1. These associations have not previously been reported, and they remained significant after genome-wide correction. Our results provide strong support for a model of schizophrenia pathogenesis that includes the effects of multiple rare structural variants, both genome-wide and at specific loci.

At least some ASD CNVs (and the genes they affect) are under purifying selection.
“These findings, similar to those recently described in schizophrenia 26 , suggest that at least some of these ASD CNVs (and the genes that they affect) are under purifying selection 27 .”

The main text (page unavailable) reports that rare, gene-intersecting CNVs are enriched in schizophrenia cases. It does not address whether ASD CNVs or the genes they affect are under purifying selection; searches for purifying and negative selection found no passage establishing that point. (LLM, conf=0.73)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe enrichment of CNVs seen in case-control studies is modest.
“A limitation of this approach is that the enrichment of CNVs seen in case–control studies is modest;2”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
