Common variants conferring risk of schizophrenia

Hreinn Stefansson, +94 more
- 06 Aug 2009 - 
TL;DR: Findings implicating the MHC region are consistent with an immune component to schizophrenia risk, whereas the association with NRGN and TCF4 points to perturbation of pathways involved in brain development, memory and cognition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling Linkage Disequilibrium Increases Accuracy of Polygenic Risk Scores

Bjarni J. Vilhjálmsson, +394 more
TL;DR: LDpred is introduced, a method that infers the posterior mean effect size of each marker by using a prior on effect sizes and LD information from an external reference panel, and outperforms the approach of pruning followed by thresholding, particularly at large sample sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Copy number variations of chromosome 16p13.1 region associated with schizophrenia

TL;DR: It is concluded that duplications and perhaps also deletions of chromosome 16p13.1, previously reported to be associated with autism and MR, also confer risk of schizophrenia.

Contribution of copy number variants to schizophrenia from a genome-wide study of 41,321 subjects

Christian R. Marshall, +262 more
TL;DR: A centralized analysis pipeline was applied to a SCZ cohort of 21,094 cases and 20,227 controls and Suggestive support was found for eight additional candidate susceptibility and protective loci, which consisted predominantly of CNVs mediated by nonallelic homologous recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expanding the range of ZNF804A variants conferring risk of psychosis

Stacy Steinberg, +80 more
- 01 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: As it has been proposed that variants such as rs1344706[T]—common and with low relative risk—may also serve to identify regions harboring less common, higher-risk susceptibility alleles, ZNF804A is searched for large copy number variants (CNVs) in psychosis patients and patients with other psychiatric disorders and 39 481 controls.
