Abstract: There are provided isolated polynucleotide fragments for use in diagnosing and/or developing treatments for schizophrenia. Further provided is a method for diagnosing schizophrenia using one or more polynucleotides disclosed herein. Also provided is a method for screening a compound which regulates expression of a schizophrenia-related gene. Also provided is a chronic animal model of schizophrenia that mimics the functional deficits observed in patients and methods for producing the animal model comprising the administration of PCP to the animal.

Abstract: The present invention provides a new use of the polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO:1, NO:3 and NO:5 or fragments thereof, or the polypeptide encoded from that polynucleotide in the field of the schizophrenia.

Abstract: Electric submergible motor of the long, multi-rotor section type employed for driving submergible pumps has bearing assemblies between successive rotor sections that are isolated from axial loads. For this purpose, the upper rotor section of each pair of successive rotor sections may have its lower end supported on a rotor shaft protrusion, such as a ring mounted in an annular groove of the rotor shaft. A chamfer at the end of the rotor bore locks the ring in place.
