Core Tip	New findings in schizophrenia genetics are based on genome-wide association studies (GWAS), research into DNA copy number variations (CNVs), and endophenotypes. More than 70 genes have been recently suspected to be involved in the genetic background of schizophrenia based on the GWAS′s results. The CNVs at genome loci 1q21.1, 2p16.3, 3q29, 15q11.2, 15q13.3, 16p13.1 and 22q11.2 were associated with schizophrenia most frequently. Genetic research of schizophrenia endophenotypes helps us to discover the role of relevant genes in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. A better knowledge of the genetic background of schizophrenia can lead to changes in the treatment, prevention and genetic counselling.
