DISC1 and schizophrenia: Study suggested that the DISC1 gene may contribute to schizophrenia by interacting with calcium signaling pathways in the brain (Zhang et al., 2023), and variations in calcium channel signaling genes were also identified to play a role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia through an extensive GWAS analysis (Cross-Disorder Group of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium, 2013).
