  • The genetic architecture of fornix white matter microstructure and their involvement in neuropsychiatric disorders - Translational psychiatry (2023) · Ou YN, Ge YJ, Wu BS, Zhang Y, Jiang YC, Kuo K, Yang L, Tan L, Feng JF, Cheng W, Yu JT · PubMed 37236919

    ABSTRACT: The fornix is a white matter bundle located in the center of the hippocampaldiencephalic limbic circuit that controls memory and executive functions, yet its genetic architectures and involvement in brain disorders remain largely unknown. We carried out a genome-wide association analysis of 30,832 UK Biobank individuals of the six fornix diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) traits. The post-GWAS analysis allowed us to identify causal genetic variants in phenotypes at the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), locus, and gene levels, as well as genetic overlap with brain health-related traits. We further generalized our GWAS in adolescent brain cognitive development (ABCD) cohort. The GWAS identified 63 independent significant variants within 20 genomic loci associated (P

  • 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

  • Genome-wide association analysis of 19,629 individuals identifies variants influencing regional brain volumes and refines their genetic co-architecture with cognitive and mental health traits - Nature genetics (2020) · Zhao B, Luo T, Li T, Li Y, Zhang J, Shan Y, Wang X, Yang L, Zhou F, Zhu Z, Zhu H · PubMed 31676860

    ABSTRACT: Volumetric variations of human brain are heritable and are associated with many brain-related complex traits. Here we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of 101 brain volumetric phenotypes using the UK Biobank (UKB) sample including 19,629 participants. GWAS identified 365 independent genetic variants exceeding significance threshold of 4.9 × 10−10, adjusted for testing multiple phenotypes. Gene-based association study found 157 associated genes (124 new), and functional gene mapping analysis linked 146 additional genes. Many of the discovered genetic variants and genes have previously been implicated in cognitive and mental health traits. Using genome-wide polygenic risk score prediction, more than 6% of phenotypic variance (P = 3.13 × 10−24) in four other ind
