Genome-wide association studies have identified common variants in candidate genes. However, the common variant can only account for a portion of the genetic variation underlying the disorder. Therefore, researchers suggest that rare variants may be one source of missing heritability in schizophrenia. We report the case of a 20-year-old male patient diagnosed with early-onset and ultra-treatment-resistant schizophrenia and mild intellectual disability and discuss certain rare genetic variants that may be involved in the etiology. He was hospitalized for the initiation of clozapine treatment and was referred to the department of genetics because he had macrocephaly, high arched palate, a prominent forehead, hearing impairment, and hyperpigmented skin lesions. The whole exome sequencing analysis revealed a heterozygous 4168G>A(p.Ala1390Thr) variant in exon 15 of KMT2D (Lysine N-Methyltransferase 2D) (NM_003482.4) gene, which is associated with Kabuki Syndrome. The variants in KMT2D have been reported to be associated with brain development and may play a role in schizophrenia. We discussed the relationship between schizophrenia and genetic variants detected in this case in light of the literature.</p>","PeriodicalId":51142,"journal":{"name":"Noropsikiyatri Arsivi-Archives of Neuropsychiatry","volume":"60 4","pages":"380-384"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10709702/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138805538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Investigation of the Relationship Between Clinical and EEG Findings of Photosensitive Epilepsy and GABA Receptor Alpha 1 Subunit (GABRA1) Gene Mutations","authors":"E. Yavuz, A. Demirkan, Sanne Moen, Ö. Özdemir, Suzin Çatal, N. Bebek, U. Ozbek, B.

However, relevant literature indicates that genetic factors play an important role. Our aim was to investigate whether there is a relationship between the clinical and electroencephalographic (EEG) features and the possible mutations/polymorphisms in the GABA receptor alpha 1 subunit (GABRA1) gene in patients with PE by scanning this gene. Methods: 54 patients diagnosed as having PE according to International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) criteria were included in the study. The patients were analyzed in terms of gender, clinical and syndromic features, response to treatment, EEG features, and photoparoxysmal response (PPR) types. Mutation screening was done by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) on all exons belonging to GABRA1 gene. Results: We could not detect any mutation in GABRA1 gene in patients with PE. Four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in GABRA1 gene were observed, but none of them were associated with amino acid changes. Besides, when comparing the patients having these SNPs with the remaining patients without any SNPs in regard to clinical and EEG features, we were not able to find a statistically significant difference for GABRA1 gene. Conclusion: The lack of mutations in the GABRA1 gene indicates that this gene is not predominantly involved in the etiopathogenesis of PE in the Turkish population. In order to get more precise evidence, the research should be extended by increasing the number of patients and by investigating other genes related to GABA.
