Ursini et al., 2016 measured BDNF DNAm in blood at a region containing the rs6265 SNP, which lies in a coding region of the gene, which may interact with environmental factors to modulate risk for schizophrenia, while Moser et al., 2015 measured BDNF promoter DNAm in saliva, where methylation has been associated with trauma associated psychiatric disease in children (Moser et al., 2015; Ursini et al., 2016). This evidence concerns the gene BDNF and schizophrenia.
