Genetic variants associated with psychiatric disorders are enriched at epigenetically active sites in lymphoid cells
The role of the immune system in the pathogenesis of psychiatric disorders is unclear. Here, the authors show that genetic risk variants for multiple psychiatric disorders are enriched in regions of the genome active in the brain and in lymphoid cells, especially stimulated T cells, but not in myelo...
