Regulation of <i>α</i>7‐nicotinic receptor subunit and <i>α</i>7‐like gene expression in the prefrontal cortex of patients with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia

Abstract

This correlation is driven by the bipolar group (r = 0.43; P = 0.009), and is absent in schizophrenia and unaffected controls, suggesting an alteration in the CHRNA7:CHRFAM7A ratio in bipolar disorder.
