Openshaw R, Kwon J, McColl A, Penninger J, Cavanagh J, Pratt J, et al.
J Neuroinflammation . 2019 Jan; 16(1):18. PMID: 30691477
Background: Important insight into the mechanisms through which gene-environmental interactions cause schizophrenia can be achieved through preclinical studies combining prenatal immune stimuli with disease-related genetic risk modifications. Accumulating evidence associates...
