    • Valproic acid (VPA) exposure during pregnancy leads to a higher risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) susceptibility in offspring. Human dorsal forebrain organoids were used to recapitulate course of cortical neurogenesis in the developing human brain. Combining morphological characterization with massive parallel RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) on organoids to analyze the pathogenic effects caused by VPA exposure and critical signaling pathway. We found that VPA exposure in organoids caused a reduction in the size and impairment in the proliferation and expansion of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) in a dose-dependent manner. VPA exposure typically decreased the production of outer radial glia-like cells (oRGs), a subtype of NPCs contributing to mammalian neocortical expansion and delayed their fate toward upper-layer neurons. Transcriptomics analysis revealed that VPA exposure influenced ASD risk gene expression in organoids, which markedly overlapped with irregulated genes in brains or organoids originating from ASD patients. We also identified that VPA-mediated Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activation is essential for sustaining cortical neurogenesis and oRGs output. Taken together, our study establishes the use of dorsal forebrain organoids as an effective platform for modeling VPA-induced teratogenic pathways involved in the cortical neurogenesis and oRGs output, which might contribute to ASD pathogenesis in the developing brain.

  • Transcriptome-wide association analysis of brain structures yields insights into pleiotropy with complex neuropsychiatric traits
  • 2021

    • Structural variations of the human brain are heritable and highly polygenic traits, with hundreds of associated genes identified in recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) can both prioritize these GWAS findings and also identify additional gene-trait associations. Here we perform cross-tissue TWAS analysis of 211 structural neuroimaging and discover 278 associated genes exceeding Bonferroni significance threshold of 1.04 × 10−8. The TWAS-significant genes for brain structures have been linked to a wide range of complex traits in different domains. Through TWAS gene-based polygenic risk scores (PRS) prediction, we find that TWAS PRS gains substantial power in association analysis compared to conventional variant-based GWAS PRS, and up to 6.97% of phenotypic variance (p-value = 7.56 × 10−31) can be explained in independent testing data sets. In conclusion, our study illustrates that TWAS can be a powerful supplement to traditional GWAS in imaging genetics studies for gene discovery-validation, genetic co-architecture analysis, and polygenic risk prediction.
