Abstract:
Schizophrenia is a mental illness that can seriously affect a patient's cognitive and social communication. Because schizophrenia is affected by multiple factors, the cause of schizoophrenia is still unclear. Gene transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) is a new research method to study the morphological structure, and gene differential expression and function; RNA-Seq can sequence hundreds of thousands to millions of DNA molecules at a time, providing more effective data for biological transcription information. This paper reviews the principles and technical characteristics of RNA-Seq, and application of RNA-Seq in schizophrenia, which provide new ideas for schizophrenia research.
