Environmental risk reshapes high-confidence schizophrenia risk genes during a developmental window of vulnerability

Alison Brack, Rhushikesh A. Phadke, Luke A. Fournier, Matthew J. Boberg, Maria Salgado, Alberto Cruz‐Martín

The paper investigates how early-life stress alters the expression of schizophrenia risk genes in mice during development, identifying region- and cell-type-specific effects.

Overexpression of the schizophrenia risk gene C4 in PV cells drives sex-dependent behavioral deficits and circuit dysfunction.

Luke A. Fournier, Rhushikesh A. Phadke, Maria Salgado, Alison Brack, Jian Carlo Nocon, Sonia Bolshakova, Jaylyn R. Grant, Nicole M. Padró-Luna, Kamal Sen, Alberto Cruz‐Martín

This study shows that overexpressing the schizophrenia risk gene C4 in PV cells causes sex-dependent behavioral and circuit dysfunction in mice.

C4 induces pathological synaptic loss by impairing AMPAR trafficking.

Rhushikesh A. Phadke, Ezra Kruzich, Luke A. Fournier, Alison Brack, Mingqi Sha, Ines Picard, Connor Johnson, Dimitri Stroumbakis, Maria Salgado, Charlotte Yeung, Berta Escude Velasco, Yen Yu Liu, Alberto Cruz‐Martín

This study shows that C4 overexpression causes synaptic loss by impairing GluR1 trafficking via SNX27, independent of the complement pathway.
