  • The Genetic Architecture of the Human Corpus Callosum and its Subregions - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · 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

  • Gene discovery and polygenic prediction from a 1.1-million-person GWAS of educational attainment - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 30038396

    ABSTRACT: We conduct a large-scale genetic association analysis of educational attainment in a sample of ~1.1 million individuals and identify 1,271 independent genome-wide-significant SNPs. For the SNPs taken together, we found evidence of heterogeneous effects across environments. The SNPs implicate genes involved in brain-development processes and neuron-to-neuron communication. In a separate analysis of the X chromosome, we identify 10 independent genome-wide-significant SNPs and estimate a SNP heritability of ~0.3% in both men and women, consistent with partial dosage compensation. A joint (multi-phenotype) analysis of educational attainment and three related cognitive phenotypes generates polygenic scores that explain 11-13% of the variance in educational attainment and 7-10% of

  • Integrative analysis of genome-wide association studies identifies novel loci associated with neuropsychiatric disorders - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 33479212

    ABSTRACT: Neuropsychiatric disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar disorder (BIP), and major depressive disorder (MDD) share common clinical presentations, suggesting etiologic overlap. A substantial proportion of SNP-based heritability for neuropsychiatric disorders is attributable to genetic components, and genome-wide association studies (GWASs) focusing on individual diseases have identified multiple genetic loci shared between these diseases. Here, we aimed at identifying novel genetic loci associated with individual neuropsychiatric diseases and genetic loci shared by neuropsychiatric diseases. We performed multi-trait joint analyses and meta-analysis across five neuropsychiatric disorders based
