    Notes: Abstract Allele frequency distributions at the short tandem repeat (STR) loci HUMVWA, HUMFES, HUMF13A01 and of the variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) locus D1S80 were determined in a Filipino population from Metro Manila (103 individuals) by use of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The exact test demonstrated that all four loci had no deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) with the only reservation that the exact test p-value for F13A01 is weak. The discriminating power is 0.82 for D1S80, and the expected exclusion chance is 0.85 for F13A01, 0.83 for FES, and 0.93 for VWA. The observed heterozygosity rates are 0.63 for D1S80, 0.66 for F13A01, 0.67 for FES, and 0.80 for VWA. The exact test for independance between all loci gave a p-value of 0.0195. This is the first time that Filipino population data of DNA loci of forensic importance are reported.

    Notes: Abstract Cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein (CREB) is one of the messenger molecules involved in intracellular signal transduction pathways used by most dopamine and serotonin receptor subtypes. In addition, CREB stimulates the expression of a number of genes, alterations in the expression of which may be associated with schizophrenia. The promoter region of the human CREB gene was therefore analyzed to identify genetic variants that may lead to the modification of CREB expression and contribute to schizophrenia. Eighty unrelated schizophrenics and 100 healthy controls were screened for genetic variants of the CREB gene by SSCP analysis, followed by direct sequencing of PCR products. Two novel variants (−933T?C and −413G?A) were found only in schizophrenics. A patient with the −933T?C variant had unusual clinical characteristics in addition to typical schizophrenic symptoms.
