NOS1AP and schizophrenia: Changes in normal expression of proteins involved in early migration of neurons, axonal and dendritic outgrowth, and synaptogenesis (Fatemi and Folsom, 2009) have been observed in postmortem brain tissues from individuals with schizophrenia, including a study by our group showing that expression of three isoforms of NOS1AP is increased in the DLPFC of individuals with schizophrenia (Hadzimichalis et al., 2010).
