Arfan; Medical and Molecular Genetics, School of MedicineSubcortical brain structures are integral to motion, consciousness, emotions and learning. We identified common genetic variation related to the volumes of the nucleus accumbens, amygdala, brainstem, caudate nucleus, globus pallidus, putamen and thalamus, using genome-wide association analyses in almost 40,000 individuals from CHARGE, ENIGMA and UK Biobank. We show that variability in subcortical volumes is heritable, and identify 48 significantly associated loci (40 novel at the time of analysis). Annotation of these loci by utilizing gene expression, methylation and neuropathological data identified 199 genes putatively implicated in neurodevelopment, synaptic signaling, axonal transport, apoptosis, inflammation/infection and susceptibility to neurological disorders. This set of genes is significantly enriched for Drosophila orthologs associated with neurodevelopmental phenotypes, suggesting evolutionarily conserved mechanisms. Our findings uncover novel biology and potential drug targets underlying brain development and disease.Item The Genetic Architecture of the Human Cerebral Cortex(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2020-03-20) Grasby, Katrina L.; Jahanshad, Neda; Painter, Jodie N.; Colodro-Conde, Lucía; Bralten, Janita; Hibar, Derrek P.; Lind, Penelope A.; Pizzagalli, Fabrizio; Ching, Christopher R.K.; McMahon, Mary Agnes B.; Shatokhina, Natalia; Zsembik, Leo C.P.; Thomopoulos, Sophia I.; Zhu, Alyssa H.; Strike, Lachlan T.; Agartz, Ingrid; Alhusaini, Saud; Almeida, Marcio A.A.; Alnæs, Dag; Amlien, Inge K.; Andersson, Micael; Ard, Tyler; Armstrong, Nicola J.; Ashley-Koch, Allison; Atkins, Joshua R.; Bernard, Manon; Brouwer, Rachel M.; Buimer, Elizabeth E.L.; Bülow, Robin; Bürger, Christian; Cannon, Dara M.; Chakravarty, Mallar; Chen, Qiang; Cheung, Joshua W.; Couvy-Duchesne, Baptiste; Dale, Anders M.; Dalvie, Shareefa; de Araujo, Tânia K.; de Zubicaray, Greig I.; de Zwarte, Sonja M.C.; den Braber, Anouk; Doan, Nhat Trung; Dohm, Katharina; Ehrlich, Stefan; Engelbrecht, Hannah-Ruth; Erk, Susanne; Fan, Chun Chieh; Fedko, Iryna O.; Foley, Sonya F.; Ford, Judith M.; Fukunaga, Masaki; Garrett, Melanie E.; Ge, Tian; Giddaluru, Sudheer; Goldman, Aaron L.; Green, Melissa J.; Groenewold, Nynke A.; Grotegerd, Dominik; Gurholt, Tiril P.; Gutman, Boris A.; Hansell, Narelle K.; Harris, Mathew A.; Harrison, Marc B.; Haswell, Courtney C.; Hauser, Michael; Herms, Stefan; Heslenfeld, Dirk J.; Ho, New Fei; Hoehn, David; Hoffmann, Per; Holleran, Laurena; Hoogman, Martine; Hottenga, Jouke-Jan; Ikeda, Masashi; Janowitz, Deborah; Jansen, Iris E.; Jia, Tianye; Jockwitz, Christiane; Kanai, Ryota; Karama, Sherif; Kasperaviciute, Dalia; Kaufmann, Tobias; Kelly, Sinead; Kikuchi, Masataka; Klein, Marieke; Knapp, Michael; Knodt, Annchen R.; Krämer, Bernd; Lam, Max; Lancaster, Thomas M.; Lee, Phil H.; Lett, Tristram A.; Lewis, Lindsay B.; Lopes-Cendes, Iscia; Luciano, Michelle; Macciardi, Fabio; Marquand, Andre F.; Mathias, Samuel R.; Melzer, Tracy R.; Milaneschi, Yuri; Mirza-Schreiber, Nazanin; Moreira, Jose C.V.; Mühleisen, Thomas W.; Müller-Myhsok, Bertram; Najt, Pablo; Nakahara, Soichiro; Nho, Kwangsik; lde Loohuis, Loes M.O.; Orfanos, Dimitri Papadopoulos; Pearson, John F.; Pitcher, Toni L.; Pütz, Benno; Quidé, Yann; Ragothaman, Anjanibhargavi; Rashid, Faisal M.; Reay, William R.; Redlich, Ronny; Reinbold, Céline S.; Repple, Jonathan; Richard, Geneviève; Riedel, Brandalyn C.; Risacher, Shannon L.; Rocha, Cristiane S.; Roth Mota, Nina; Salminen, Lauren; Saremi, Arvin; Saykin, Andrew J.; Schlag, Fenja; Schmaal, Lianne; Schofield, Peter R.; Secolin, Rodrigo; Shapland, Chin Yang; Shen, Li; Shin, Jean; Shumskaya, Elena; Sønderby, Ida E.; Sprooten, Emma; Tansey, Katherine E.; Teumer, Alexander; Thalamuthu, Anbupalam; Tordesillas-Gutiérrez, Diana; Turner, Jessica A.; Uhlmann, Anne; Vallerga, Costanza Ludovica; van der Meer, Dennis; van Donkelaar, Marjolein M.J.; van Eijk, Liza; van Erp, Theo G.M.; van Haren, Neeltje E.M.; van Rooij, Daan; van Tol, Marie-José; Veldink, Jan H.; Verhoef, Ellen; Walton, Esther; Wang, Mingyuan; Wang, Yunpeng; Wardlaw, Joanna M.; Wen, Wei; Westlye, Lars T.; Whelan, Christopher D.; Witt, Stephanie H.; Wittfeld, Katharina; Wolf, Christiane; Wolfers, Thomas; Wu, Jing Qin; Yasuda, Clarissa L.; Zaremba, Dario; Zhang, Zuo; Zwiers, Marcel P.; Artiges, Eric; Assareh, Amelia A.; Ayesa-Arriol, Rosa; Belger, Aysenil; Brandt, Christine L.; Brown, Gregory G.; Cichon, Sven; Curran, Joanne E.; Davies, Gareth E.; Degenhard, Franziska; Dennis, Michelle F.; Dietsche, Bruno; Djurovic, Srdjan; Doherty, Colin P.; Espiritu, Ryan; Garijo, Daniel; Gil, Yolanda; Gowland, Penny A.; Green, Robert C.; Häusler, Alexander N.; Heindel, Walter; Ho, Beng-Choon; Hoffmann, Wolfgang U.; Holsboer, Florian; Homuth, Georg; Hosten, Norbert; Jack, Clifford R.,Jr.; Jang, MiHyun; Jansen, Andreas; Kimbrel, Nathan A.; Kolskår, Knut; Koops, Sanne; Krug, Axel; Lim, Kelvin O.; Luykx, Jurjen J.; Mathalon, Daniel H.; Mather, Karen A.; Mattay, Venkata S.; Matthews, Sarah; Mayoral Van Son, Jaqueline; McEwen, Sarah C.; Melle, Ingrid; Morris, Derek W.; Mueller, Bryon A.; Nauck, Matthias; Nordvik, Jan E.; Nöthen, Markus M.; O'Leary, Daniel S.; Opel, Nils; Paillère Martinot, Marie-Laure; Pike, G.

To identify genetic variants that affect cortical structure, we conducted a genome-wide association meta-analysis of brain magnetic resonance imaging data from 51,665 individuals. We analyzed the surface area and average thickness of the whole cortex and 34 regions with known functional specializations. We identified 199 significant loci and found significant enrichment for loci influencing total surface area within regulatory elements that are active during prenatal cortical development, supporting the radial unit hypothesis. Loci that affect regional surface area cluster near genes in Wnt signaling pathways, which influence progenitor expansion and areal identity. Variation in cortical structure is genetically correlated with cognitive function, Parkinson's disease, insomnia, depression, neuroticism, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.Item Large-scale genomics unveil polygenic architecture of human cortical surface area(Nature Publishing Group, 2015-07-20) Chen, Chi-Hua; Peng, Qian; Schork, Andrew J.; Lo, Min-Tzu; Fan, Chun-Chieh; Wang, Yunpeng; Desikan, Rahul S.; Bettella, Francesco; Hagler, Donald J.; Westlye, Lars T.; Kremen, William S.; Jernigan, Terry L.; Hellard, Stephanie Le; Steen, Vidar M.; Espeseth, Thomas; Huentelman, Matt; Håberg, Asta K.; Agartz, Ingrid; Djurovic, Srdjan; Andreassen, Ole A.; Schork, Nicholas; Dale, Anders M.; Department of Radiology and Imaging Sciences, IU School of MedicineLittle is known about how genetic variation contributes to neuroanatomical variability, and whether particular genomic regions comprising genes or evolutionarily conserved elements are enriched for effects that influence brain morphology. Here, we examine brain imaging and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) data from ~2,700 individuals. We show that a substantial proportion of variation in cortical surface area is explained by additive effects of SNPs dispersed throughout the genome, with a larger heritable effect for visual and auditory sensory and insular cortices (h2~0.45). Genome-wide SNPs collectively account for, on average, about half of twin heritability across cortical regions (N=466 twins). We find enriched genetic effects in or near genes. We also observe that SNPs in evolutionarily more conserved regions contributed significantly to the heritability of cortical surface area, particularly, for medial and temporal cortical regions. SNPs in less conserved regions contributed more to occipital and dorsolateral prefrontal cortices.Item Novel genetic loci associated with hippocampal volume(SpringerNature, 2017-01-18) Hibar, Derrek P.; Adams, Hieab H.H.; Jahanshad, Neda; Chauhan, Ganesh; Stein, Jason L.; Hofer, Edith; Renteria, Miguel E.; Bis, Joshua C.; Arias-Vasquez, Alejandro; Ikram, M.

Structural abnormalities in hippocampal volume and shape are found in several common neuropsychiatric disorders. To identify the genetic underpinnings of hippocampal structure here we perform a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 33,536 individuals and discover six independent loci significantly associated with hippocampal volume, four of them novel. Of the novel loci, three lie within genes (ASTN2, DPP4 and MAST4) and one is found 200 kb upstream of SHH. A hippocampal subfield analysis shows that a locus within the MSRB3 gene shows evidence of a localized effect along the dentate gyrus, subiculum, CA1 and fissure. Further, we show that genetic variants associated with decreased hippocampal volume are also associated with increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (rg=-0.155). Our findings suggest novel biological pathways through which human genetic variation influences hippocampal volume and risk for neuropsychiatric illness.
