Tanrıkulu and Erbaş (2020) investigated identical twins to determine the presence of an inherited link for schizophrenia and why one twin may develop schizophrenia when the other does not. When two people have 100% identical DNA, why don't both persons develop the exact illnesses? Studies of identical Danish twins found that if one twin had schizophrenia, the other twin had a 50% lifetime risk of developing schizophrenia (Lemvigh et al., 2020). Why is there only half the risk? ANSWER Both environmental and psychosocial stressors can impact mental health. Although twins may have identical genes, their gene expression may be different.
There may be an environmental exposure that turned a gene "on" that should have been "off" for one twin to develop schizophrenia and not the other.
