[Genetic marker findings in systematic and unsystematic schizophrenias]

The systematic schizophrenias are marked genetically by a significant surplus of the Gc serum type 1-1 (p less than 0.0005), what can be demonstrated by the separated analysis of the hebephrenias (p less than 0.0005), paraphrenias (p less than 0.01) and catatonias (p less than 0.05) also. Furtheron there is some evidence that the Gc subtype 1F plays a predominant role within the Gc 1-1 excess (p less than 0.01). The unsystematic schizophrenias (periodic catatonias and affective paraphrenias) do not deviate in their Gc distribution from the corresponding control values, but they exhibit contrary to the systematic forms a surplus of the haptoglobin serum group 2-2 like phasic psychoses. The marker findings are discussed with respect to the relevant data of biological psychiatry and biochemical genetics.
