Nearly 80% of the risk of schizophrenia is due to genetics

Nearly 80 percent of the risk of schizophrenia may have genetic resources from parents, scientists found.

Before, schizophrenia is a disorder that affects a person's ability to think, feel and behave.

According to previous estimates, the genes found are responsible for only 50 to 80 percent of the cause.

However, new estimates show that genetics also plays a 79-80 percent risk for this disorder.

Scientist Rikke Hilker of the University of Copenhagen said: "Our results show that a significant genetic component is responsible for causing schizophrenia with a genetic predisposition rate of 79% and even Only other genetic effects seem to play a similar role in schizophrenia spectrum disorder.

Specifically, many factors such as DNA sequences, epigenetic variation, differences in gene expression, environmental factors and complex interactions between these two groups of genes are thought to be influential resonant effects. to schizophrenia.

To study, the team of scientists evaluated the genetic role of more than 30,000 twins born in 1870 in Denmark.

Researchers found that there was a unity of schizophrenia at 33% in twins or twins and seven percent in twins.

In addition, heredity is estimated to be related to many other diseases, including disorders associated with schizophrenia spectrum disorder.

The researchers said that the results also showed that the estimated prevalence of genetic diseases also reached 73%, indicating the importance of genetic factors with other similar diseases.

This research has just been published in the journal Biological Psychiatry.
