The Relationship between Mismatch Negativity and the < b > < i > COMT < /i > < /b > Val108/158Met Genotype in Schizophrenia

This study therefore examined the relationship betweenCOMTVal108/158Met genotype and MMN. The duration of MMN was measured, and theCOMTVal108/158Met polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in 49 Japanese schizophrenia patients (Val/Val,n = 21; Met carriers,n = 28). Amplitude and latency of MMN were compared between Val/Val and Met carriers.Neuropsychobiology
