  • Multivariate genetic analysis of personality and cognitive traits reveals abundant pleiotropy. - Nature human behaviour (2023) · Hindley G, Shadrin AA, van der Meer D, Parker N, Cheng W, O'Connell KS, Bahrami S, Lin A, Karadag N, Holen B, Bjella T, Deary IJ, Davies G, Hill WD, Bressler J, Seshadri S, Fan CC, Ueland T, Djurovic S, Smeland OB, Frei O, Dale AM, Andreassen OA · PubMed 37365406

    Personality and cognitive function are heritable mental traits whose genetic foundations may be distributed across interconnected brain functions. Previous studies have typically treated these complex mental traits as distinct constructs. We applied the 'pleiotropy-informed' multivariate omnibus statistical test to genome-wide association studies of 35 measures of neuroticism and cognitive function from the UK Biobank (n = 336,993). We identified 431 significantly associated genetic loci with evidence of abundant shared genetic associations, across personality and cognitive function domains. Functional characterization implicated genes with significant tissue-specific expression in all tested brain tissues and brain-specific gene sets. We conditioned independent genome-wide association

  • Genome-wide association meta-analysis in 269,867 individuals identifies new genetic and functional links to intelligence - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 29942086

    [INTRO] Intelligence is highly heritable and a major determinant of human health and well-being. Recent genome-wide meta-analyses have identified 24 genomic loci linked to variation in intelligence, but much about its genetic underpinnings remains to be discovered. Here, we present the largest genetic association study of intelligence to date (N=269,867), identifying 205 associated genomic loci (190 novel) and 1,016 genes (939 novel) via positional mapping, expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping, chromatin interaction mapping, and gene-based association analysis. We find enrichment of genetic effects in conserved and coding regions and associations with 146 nonsynonymous exonic variants. Associated genes are strongly expressed in the brain, specifically in striatal medium spiny
