  • Large-scale GWAS reveals genetic architecture of brain white matter microstructure and genetic overlap with cognitive and mental health traits (n=17,706) - Molecular psychiatry (2022) · Zhao B, Zhang J, Ibrahim JG, Luo T, Santelli RC, Li Y, Li T, Shan Y, Zhu Z, Zhou F, Liao H, Nichols TE, Zhu H · PubMed 31666681

    ABSTRACT: Individual variations of white matter (WM) tracts are known to be associated with various cognitive and neuropsychiatric traits. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data from 17,706 UK Biobank participants offer the opportunity to identify novel genetic variants of WM tracts and explore the genetic overlap with other brain-related complex traits. We analyzed the genetic architecture of 110 tract-based DTI parameters, carried out genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and performed post-GWAS analyses, including association lookups, gene-based association analysis, functional gene mapping, and genetic correlation estimation. We found that DTI parameters are substantially heritable for all WM tracts (mean heritability 48.7%). We obser

  • An expanded set of genome-wide association studies of brain imaging phenotypes in UK Biobank - Nature neuroscience (2021) · Smith SM, Douaud G, Chen W, Hanayik T, Alfaro-Almagro F, Sharp K, Elliott LT · PubMed 33875891

    ABSTRACT: UK Biobank is a major prospective epidemiological study, including multimodal brain imaging, genetics and ongoing health outcomes. Previously, we published genome-wide associations of 3,144 brain imaging-derived phenotypes, with a discovery sample of 8,428 subjects. Here we present a new open resource of GWAS summary statistics, using the 2020 data release, almost tripling the discovery sample size. We now include the X chromosome, and new classes of image derived phenotypes (subcortical volumes and tissue contrast). Previously we had found 148 replicated clusters of associations between genetic variants and imaging phenotypes; here we find 692, including 12 on the X chromosome. We describe some of the newly found associations, focussing on the X chromosome and autosomal associat
