Response to Pearlman and Najjar

摘要

To the Editor: We thank Drs. Daniel M. Pearlman and Souhel Najjar for their interest in our study. They suggested some additional analyses relevant to the relationship between Zif268 and GAD67 mRNA levels in the dorsolateral piehontal cortex of subjects with schizophrenia, which we provide below. First, the significant positive association we reported between Zif268 and GAD67 mRNA levels in schizophrenia subjects by Pearson's correlation (r=0.29, p=0.027) is supported by the requested Spearman's correlation (r=0.33, p=0.013) in the same schizophrenia subjects.
