Association analysis of potentially functional variants within 8p12 with schizophrenia in the Han Chinese population.

Conclusions: Our results provide limited evidence for the associations between variants from protein coding regions in 8p12 and SCZ in the Chinese population. Analyses of both coding and regulatory variants in larger sample sizes are required to further clarify the causal variants for SCZ with this risk locus.
