    Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) genetics are characterized by lower discoverability than most other psychiatric disorders. The contribution to biological understanding from previous genetic studies has thus been limited. We performed a multi-ancestry meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies across 1,222,882 individuals of European ancestry (137,136 cases) and 58,051 admixed individuals with African and Native American ancestry (13,624 cases). We identified 95 genome-wide significant loci (80 new). Convergent multi-omic approaches identified 43 potential causal genes, broadly classified as neurotransmitter and ion channel synaptic modulators (for example, GRIA1, GRM8 and CACNA1E), developmental, axon guidance and transcription factors (for example, FOXP2, EFNA5 and DCC), synaptic structure and function genes (for example, PCLO, NCAM1 and PDE4B) and endocrine or immune regulators (for example, ESR1, TRAF3 and TANK). Additional top genes influence stress, immune, fear and threat-related processes, previously hypothesized to underlie PTSD neurobiology. These findings strengthen our understanding of neurobiological systems relevant to PTSD pathophysiology, while also opening new areas for investigation.

    Genome-wide Association Studies in Ancestrally Diverse Populations: Opportunities, Methods, Pitfalls, and Recommendations
    (Elsevier, 2019-10-10) Peterson, Roseann E.; Kuchenbaecker, Karoline; Walters, Raymond K.; Chen, Chia-Yen; Popejoy, Alice B.; Periyasamy, Sathish; Lam, Max; Iyegbe, Conrad; Strawbridge, Rona J.; Brick, Leslie; Carey, Caitlin E.; Martin, Alicia R.; Meyers, Jacquelyn L.; Su, Jinni; Chen, Junfang; Edwards, Alexis C.; Kalungi, Allan; Koen, Nastassja; Majara, Lerato; Schwarz, Emanuel; Smoller, Jordan W.; Stahl, Eli A.; Sullivan, Patrick F.; Vassos, Evangelos; Mowry, Bryan; Prieto, Miguel L.; Cuellar-Barboza, Alfredo; Bigdeli, Tim B.; Edenberg, Howard J.; Huang, Hailiang; Duncan, Laramie E.; Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, School of Medicine
    Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have focused primarily on populations of European descent, but it is essential that diverse populations become better represented. Increasing diversity among study participants will advance our understanding of genetic architecture in all populations and ensure that genetic research is broadly applicable. To facilitate and promote research in multi-ancestry and admixed cohorts, we outline key methodological considerations and highlight opportunities, challenges, solutions, and areas in need of development. Despite the perception that analyzing genetic data from diverse populations is difficult, it is scientifically and ethically imperative, and there is an expanding analytical toolbox to do it well.
