    Paternal Age and Increased Risk of Schizophrenia, Providing Evidence for De Novo Mutations

    Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness that afflicts approximately one percent of the world’s population and yet its etiology is relatively unknown. There is a clear link between schizophrenia and genes in familial cases, demonstrated by heritability. However there is also evidence that genes contribute to the onset of schizophrenia in sporadic cases (where there is no history of the disease in the family) due to accumulating ‘de novo’ mutations in ageing fathers.
