Abstract
We investigated the blood levels of mixed-lineage leukemia 1 (MLL1) mRNA and BDNF (brain derived neurotrophic factor) exon IV promoter on histone Histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) in peripheral blood of patients with schizophrenia and controls. Over one year, 36 patients with schizophrenia and 32 controls were recruited. Psychiatric diagnoses were made based on DSM-IV criteria. Higher blood MLL1 mRNA and BDNF exon IV promoter on H3K4me3 levels were noted in patients with schizophrenia than in controls. The results showed that blood MLL1 mRNA and BDNF exon IV on H3K4me3 levels might be involved in the psychopathology of schizophrenia.
