Subcortical brain regions form circuits with cortical areas to coordinate movement, learning, memory and motivation, and altered circuits can lead to abnormal behaviour and disease. To investigate how common genetic variants affect the structure of these brain regions, here we conduct genome-wide association studies of the volumes of seven subcortical regions and the intracranial volume derived from magnetic resonance images of 30,717 individuals from 50 cohorts. We identify five novel genetic variants influencing the volumes of the putamen and caudate nucleus. We also find stronger evidence for three loci with previously established influences on hippocampal volume and intracranial volume. These variants show specific volumetric effects on brain structures rather than global effects across structures. The strongest effects were found for the putamen, where a novel intergenic locus with replicable influence on volume (rs945270Item Genetic architecture of subcortical brain structures in 38,851 individuals(Nature, 2019-11) Satizabal, Claudia L.; Adams, Hieab H.

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 Genome-wide meta-analyses reveal novel loci for verbal short-term memory and learning(Springer Nature, 2022) Lahti, Jari; Tuominen, Samuli; Yang, Qiong; Pergola, Giulio; Ahmad, Shahzad; Amin, Najaf; Armstrong, Nicola J.; Beiser, Alexa; Bey, Katharina; Bis, Joshua C.; Boerwinkle, Eric; Bressler, Jan; Campbell, Archie; Campbell, Harry; Chen, Qiang; Corley, Janie; Cox, Simon R.; Davies, Gail; De Jager, Philip L.; Derks, Eske M.; Faul, Jessica D.; Fitzpatrick, Annette L.; Fohner, Alison E.; Ford, Ian; Fornage, Myriam; Gerring, Zachary; Grabe, Hans J.; Grodstein, Francine; Gudnason, Vilmundur; Simonsick, Eleanor; Holliday, Elizabeth G.; Joshi, Peter K.; Kajantie, Eero; Kaprio, Jaakko; Karell, Pauliina; Kleineidam, Luca; Knol, Maria J.; Kochan, Nicole A.; Kwok, John B.; Leber, Markus; Lam, Max; Lee, Teresa; Li, Shuo; Loukola, Anu; Luck, Tobias; Marioni, Riccardo E.; Mather, Karen A.; Medland, Sarah; Mirza, Saira S.; Nalls, Mike A.; Nho, Kwangsik; O'Donnell, Adrienne; Oldmeadow, Christopher; Painter, Jodie; Pattie, Alison; Reppermund, Simone; Risacher, Shannon L.; Rose, Richard J.; Sadashivaiah, Vijay; Scholz, Markus; Satizabal, Claudia L.; Schofield, Peter W.; Schraut, Katharina E.; Scott, Rodney J.; Simino, Jeannette; Smith, Albert V.; Smith, Jennifer A.; Stott, David J.; Surakka, Ida; Teumer, Alexander; Thalamuthu, Anbupalam; Trompet, Stella; Turner, Stephen T.; van der Lee, Sven J.; Villringer, Arno; Völker, Uwe; Wilson, Robert S.; Wittfeld, Katharina; Vuoksimaa, Eero; Xia, Rui; Yaffe, Kristine; Yu, Lei; Zare, Habil; Zhao, Wei; Ames, David; Attia, John; Bennett, David A.; Brodaty, Henry; Chasman, Daniel I.; Goldman, Aaron L.; Hayward, Caroline; Ikram, M.

Hence, we examined the associations of common genetic variants with verbal short-term memory and verbal learning in adults without dementia or stroke (N = 53,637). We identified novel loci in the intronic region of CDH18, and at 13q21 and 3p21.1, as well as an expected signal in the APOE/APOC1/TOMM40 region. These results replicated in an independent sample. Functional and bioinformatic analyses supported many of these loci and further implicated POC1. We showed that polygenic score for verbal learning associated with brain activation in right parieto-occipital region during working memory task. Finally, we showed genetic correlations of these memory traits with several neurocognitive and health outcomes.

We performed a two-stage genome-wide association study totaling 111,326 clinically diagnosed/‘proxy’ AD cases and 677,663 controls. We found 75 risk loci, of which 42 were new at the time of analysis. Pathway enrichment analyses confirmed the involvement of amyloid/tau pathways and highlighted microglia implication. Gene prioritization in the new loci identified 31 genes that were suggestive of new genetically associated processes, including the tumor necrosis factor alpha pathway through the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex. We also built a new genetic risk score associated with the risk of future AD/dementia or progression from mild cognitive impairment to AD/dementia. The improvement in prediction led to a 1.6- to 1.9-fold increase in AD risk from the lowest to the highest decile, in addition to effects of age and the APOE ε4 allele.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.
