Schizophrenia plausible protective effect of microRNA-137 is potentially related to estrogen and prolactin in female patients

BackgroundSchizophrenia (SCZ) is a serious chronic mental disorder. Our previous case–control genetic association study has shown that microRNA-137 (miR-137) may only protect females against SCZ. Since estrogen, an important female sex hormone, exerts neuroprotective effects, the relationship betwee...
