Abstract

Abstract

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by significant abnormalities in cognition, thinking, emotion, and behavior. It is one of the most common severe mental disorders and causes serious distress to individuals, families, and society. In recent years, epigenetic studies focusing on DNA methylation have been conducted to understand schizophrenia. This review summarizes the research progress on DNA methylation and schizophrenia in recent years, aiming to provide new insights and reference value for further research on schizophrenia.
- Schizophrenia,
- DNA methylation,
- MAOA gene,
- COMT gene,
- GAD1 gene
