Genes discovered by previous epigenetic studies of schizophrenia have focused solely on diagnostics or pathology, potentially leading to a disconnection between them. Using these molecules to identify the disease is considered insufficient. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) binding to messenger RNAs (mRNAs) can lead to mRNA degradation, while circular RNAs (circRNAs), by binding to miRNAs as sponge, can reduce the inhibitory effect of miRNAs on mRNAs.

Background: Despite ongoing research, the underlying causes of schizophrenia remain unclear. Aspartate and asparagine, essential amino acids, have been linked to schizophrenia in recent studies, but their causal relationship is still unclear. This study used a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method to explore the causal relationship between aspartate and asparagine with schizophrenia.
