“…This is because the majority of previous studies have reported increases in factors associated with a restrictive chromatin state, such as increased DNMT expression (Veldic et al, 2004(Veldic et al, , 2005Zhubi et al, 2009;Ruzicka et al, 2007), DNA promoter methylation (Grayson et al, 2005;Abdolmaleky et al, 2005), and repressive histone modifications (Gavin et al, 2009a, b;Benes et al, 2007; in psychotic patients. These abnormalities are hypothesized to cause the muchreplicated reductions in GABAergic gene expression in psychosis (Benes et al, 2007;Akbarian et al, 1995;Fatemi et al, 2005;Hashimoto et al, 2008;Costa et al, 2004;Guidotti et al, 2000).…”
