  • The genetic architecture of the corpus callosum and its genetic overlap with common neuropsychiatric diseases. - Journal of affective disorders (2023) · Chen SJ, Wu BS, Ge YJ, Chen SD, Ou YN, Dong Q, Feng J, Cheng W, Yu JT · PubMed 37164063

    The corpus callosum (CC) is the main structure transferring information between the cerebral hemispheres. Although previous large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) has illustrated the genetic architecture of white matter integrity of CC, CC volume is less stressed. Using MRI data from 33,861 individuals in UK Biobank, we conducted univariate and multivariate GWAS for CC fractional anisotropy (FA) and volume with PLINK 2.0 and MOSTest. All discovered SNPs in the multivariate framework were functionally annotated in FUMA v1.3.8. In the meanwhile, a series of gene property analyses was conducted simultaneously. In addition, we estimated genetic relationship between CC metrics and other neuropsychiatric traits and diseases. We identified a total of 36 and 82 significant genomic loci f

    ABSTRACT: General cognitive function is a prominent and relatively stable human trait that is associated with many important life outcomes. We combine cognitive and genetic data from the CHARGE and COGENT consortia, and UK Biobank (total N = 300,486; age 16-102) and find 148 genome-wide significant independent loci (P < 5 × 10−8) associated with general cognitive function. Within the novel genetic loci are variants associated with neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disorders, physical and psychiatric illnesses, and brain structure. Gene-based analyses find 709 genes associated with general cognitive function. Expression levels across the cortex are associated with general cognitive function. Using polygenic scores, up to 4.3% of variance in general cognitive function
