Genomic Relationships, Novel Loci, and Pleiotropic Mechanisms across Eight Psychiatric Disorders

Phil Lee, +606 more
- 12 Dec 2019 - 
TL;DR: Genetic influences on psychiatric disorders transcend diagnostic boundaries, suggesting substantial pleiotropy of contributing loci within genes that show heightened expression in the brain throughout the lifespan, beginning prenatally in the second trimester, and play prominent roles in neurodevelopmental processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Revealing the complex genetic architecture of obsessive-compulsive disorder using meta-analysis

Paul D. Arnold, +96 more
- 01 May 2018 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis from two independent OCD consortia, investigating a total of 2688 individuals of European ancestry with OCD and 7037 genomically matched controls, concludes that the largest single OCD genome-wide study to date represents a major integrative step in elucidating the genetic causes of OCD.
Journal ArticleDOI

TNFR2 activates MLCK-dependent tight junction dysregulation to cause apoptosis-mediated barrier loss and experimental colitis.

TL;DR: In immune-mediated inflammatory bowel disease models, TNFR2 signaling increases long MLCK expression, resulting in tight junction dysregulation, barrier loss, and induction of colitis, which indicates that disease progresses via apoptosis in the absence of M LCK-dependent tight junction regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of sex on gene expression across human tissues

TL;DR: A catalog of sex differences in gene expression and its genetic regulation across 44 human tissue sources surveyed by the GTEx project (v8 data release), analyzing 16,245 RNA-sequencing samples and genotypes of 838 adult individuals is generated.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of sex in the genomics of human complex traits

TL;DR: Recent insights into the genetic models and mechanisms that lead to sex differences in complex traits are discussed, including genomic evidence for sex-dependent genetic architecture, models and molecular mechanisms of sexually differentiated phenotypes and implications for health care.
