According to these studies, impaired gamma frequency oscillations may contribute to altered inhibition from parvalbumin-containing GABA neurons in schizophrenia (Volk et al., 2016), and reduced gamma band oscillations could result in impairments in working memory, attention and sensory processing in patients with schizophrenia (Gonzalez-Burgos et al., 2015). The gene discussed is PVALB; the disease is schizophrenia.
