    • Discovering genetic variants associated with human brain structures is an on-going effort. The ENIGMA consortium conducted genome-wide association studies (GWAS) with standard multi-study analytical methodology and identified several significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Here we employ a novel analytical approach that incorporates functional genome annotations (e.g., exon or 5′UTR), total linkage disequilibrium (LD) scores and heterozygosity to construct enrichment scores for improved identification of relevant SNPs. The method provides increased power to detect associated SNPs by estimating stratum-specific false discovery rate (FDR), where strata are classified according to enrichment scores. Applying this approach to the GWAS summary statistics of putamen volume in the ENIGMA cohort, a total of 15 independent significant SNPs were identified (conditional FDR < 0.05). In contrast, 4 SNPs were found based on standard GWAS analysis (P < 5 × 10−8). These 11 novel loci include GATAD2B, ASCC3, DSCAML1, and HELZ, which are previously implicated in various neural related phenotypes. The current findings demonstrate the boost in power with the annotation-informed FDR method, and provide insight into the genetic architecture of the putamen.

  • Genetic control of variability in subcortical and intracranial volumes

    • Sensitivity to external demands is essential for adaptation to dynamic environments, but comes at the cost of increased risk of adverse outcomes when facing poor environmental conditions. Here, we apply a novel methodology to perform genome-wide association analysis of mean and variance in ten key brain features (accumbens, amygdala, caudate, hippocampus, pallidum, putamen, thalamus, intracranial volume, cortical surface area, and cortical thickness), integrating genetic and neuroanatomical data from a large lifespan sample (n = 25,575 individuals; 8-89 years, mean age 51.9 years). We identify genetic loci associated with phenotypic variability in thalamus volume and cortical thickness. The variance-controlling loci involved genes with a documented role in brain and mental health and were not associated with the mean anatomical volumes. This proof-of-principle of the hypothesis of a genetic regulation of brain volume variability contributes to establishing the genetic basis of phenotypic variance (i.e., heritability), allows identifying different degrees of brain robustness across individuals, and opens new research avenues in the search for mechanisms controlling brain and mental health.

  • Shared genetic variants between schizophrenia and general cognitive function indicate common molecular genetic mechanisms
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: European Neuropsychopharmacology. - : ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV. - 0924-977X .- 1873-7862. ; 27, s. S410-S410

    • Background: Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe mental disorder characterized by widespread cognitive impairments including deficits in learning, memory, processing speed, attention and executive functioning. Although cognitive deficits are a strong predictor of functional outcome in SCZ, current treatment strategies largely fail to ameliorate these impairments. Thus, in order to develop more efficient treatment strategies in SCZ, a better understanding of the pathogenesis of these cognitive deficits is needed. Given that both SCZ and cognitive ability are substantially heritable, we here aimed to determine whether SCZ share genetic influences with general cognitive function (COG), a phenotype that captures the shared variation in performance across several cognitive domains. Methods: We analyzed GWAS results in the form of summary statistics (p-values and z-scores) from SCZ (the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium; n=82 315) and COG (CHARGE Consortium; n=53 949). We applied a conditional false discovery rate (FDR) framework. By leveraging SNP-associations in a secondary trait (SCZ or COG), the conditional FDR approach increases power to detect loci in the primary trait (COG or SCZ), regardless of the directions of allelic effects of the risk loci. We then applied the conjunction FDR to identify shared loci between the phenotypes. The conjunction FDR is defined as the maximum of the conditional FDRs for both directions, and we used an overall FDR threshold of 0.05. Results: To visualize pleiotropic enrichment, we constructed conditional Q-Q plots which indicate substantial polygenetic overlap between SCZ and COG. For progressively stringent p-value thresholds for SCZ SNPs, we found approximately 150-fold enrichment for COG. For progressively stringent p-value thresholds for COG SNPs, we found approximately 100-fold enrichment for SCZ. We then used the conjunction FDR and identified fourteen independent loci shared between SCZ and COG. The majority of the shared loci show inverse associations in SCZ and COG, in line with the observed cognitive dysfunction in SCZ. Discussion: Our preliminary findings indicate shared molecular genetic mechanisms between SCZ and COG, which may provide important new insights into the pathogenesis of cognitive dysfunction in SCZ.

  • Dose response of the 16p11.2 distal copy number variant on intracranial volume and basal ganglia
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Molecular Psychiatry. - : Nature Publishing Group. - 1359-4184 .- 1476-5578. ; 25:3, s. 584-602

    • Carriers of large recurrent copy number variants (CNVs) have a higher risk of developing neurodevelopmental disorders. The 16p11.2 distal CNV predisposes carriers to e.g., autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. We compared subcortical brain volumes of 12 16p11.2 distal deletion and 12 duplication carriers to 6882 non-carriers from the large-scale brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging collaboration, ENIGMA-CNV. After stringent CNV calling procedures, and standardized FreeSurfer image analysis, we found negative dose-response associations with copy number on intracranial volume and on regional caudate, pallidum and putamen volumes (β = −0.71 to −1.37; P < 0.0005). In an independent sample, consistent results were obtained, with significant effects in the pallidum (β = −0.95, P = 0.0042). The two data sets combined showed significant negative dose-response for the accumbens, caudate, pallidum, putamen and ICV (P = 0.0032, 8.9 × 10−6, 1.7 × 10−9, 3.5 × 10−12 and 1.0 × 10−4, respectively). Full scale IQ was lower in both deletion and duplication carriers compared to non-carriers. This is the first brain MRI study of the impact of the 16p11.2 distal CNV, and we demonstrate a specific effect on subcortical brain structures, suggesting a neuropathological pattern underlying the neurodevelopmental syndromes.
