  • The Genetic Architecture of the Human Corpus Callosum and its Subregions - Nature communications (2025) · Bhatt RR, Gadewar SP, Shetty A, Ba Gari I, Haddad E, Javid S, Ramesh A, Nourollahimoghadam E, Zhu AH, de Leeuw C, Thompson PM, Medland SE, Jahanshad N · PubMed 41188267

    ABSTRACT: The corpus callosum (CC) is the largest set of white matter fibers connecting the two hemispheres of the brain. In humans, it is essential for coordinating sensorimotor responses and performing associative or executive functions. Identifying which genetic variants underpin CC morphometry can provide molecular insights into the CC's role in mediating cognitive processes. We developed and used an artificial intelligence based tool to extract the midsagittal CC's total and regional area and thickness in two large public datasets. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of European participants (combined N = 46,685) with generalization to the non-European participants (combined N = 7040). Post-GWAS analyses implicated prenatal intracellular organ

  • Distributed genetic effects of the corpus callosum subregions suggest links to neuropsychiatric disorders and related traits - Acta neuropsychiatrica (2025) · Campbell ML, Dalvie S, Shadrin A, van der Meer D, O'Connell K, Frei O, Andreassen OA, Stein DJ, Rokicki J · PubMed 37612147

    ABSTRACT: Background: The corpus callosum (CC) is a brain structure with a high heritability and potential role in psychiatric disorders. However, the genetic architecture of the CC and the genetic link with psychiatric disorders remain largely unclear. We investigated the genetic architectures of the volume of the CC and its subregions and the genetic overlap with psychiatric disorders. Methods: We applied multivariate genome-wide association study (GWAS) to genetic and T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of 40,894 individuals from the UK Biobank, aiming to boost genetic discovery and to assess the pleiotropic effects across volumes of the five subregions of the CC (posterior, mid-posterior, central, mid-anterior and anterior) obtained by FreeSurfer 7.1. Multivariate GWAS wa

  • Boosting Schizophrenia Genetics by Utilizing Genetic Overlap With Brain Morphology. - Biological psychiatry (2022) · van der Meer D, Shadrin AA, O'Connell K, Bettella F, Djurovic S, Wolfers T, Alnæs D, Agartz I, Smeland OB, Melle I, Sánchez JM, Linden DEJ, Dale AM, Westlye LT, Andreassen OA, Frei O, Kaufmann T · PubMed 35164939

    Schizophrenia is a complex polygenic disorder with subtle, distributed abnormalities in brain morphology. There are indications of shared genetic architecture between schizophrenia and brain measures despite low genetic correlations. Through the use of analytical methods that allow for mixed directions of effects, this overlap may be leveraged to improve our understanding of underlying mechanisms of schizophrenia and enrich polygenic risk prediction outcome. We ran a multivariate genome-wide analysis of 175 brain morphology measures using data from 33,735 participants of the UK Biobank and analyzed the results in a conditional false discovery rate together with schizophrenia genome-wide association study summary statistics of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC) Wave 3.
