Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study of Tourette's syndrome

Jeremiah M. Scharf, +114 more
- 01 Jun 2013 - 
TL;DR: This study lays the groundwork for the eventual identification of common TS susceptibility variants in larger cohorts and helps to provide a more complete understanding of the full genetic architecture of this disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self injurious behaviour in Tourette syndrome: correlates with impulsivity and impulse control

TL;DR: Mild/moderate and severe SIB in TS may represent different phenomena, which has implications for clinical management of these symptoms, and is correlated with variables related to affect or impulse dysregulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross-disorder genome-wide analyses suggest a complex genetic relationship between tourette's syndrome and OCD

Dongmei Yu, +164 more
TL;DR: The GWAS signals were enriched for SNPs strongly associated with variations in brain gene expression levels (expression quantitative loci, or eQTLs), suggesting the presence of true functional variants that contribute to risk of these disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Copy number variation in obsessive-compulsive disorder and tourette syndrome : a cross-disorder study

Lauren M. McGrath, +121 more
TL;DR: Several converging lines of evidence implicate 16p13.11 deletions in OCD, with weaker evidence for a role in TS, and the trend toward increased overall CNV burden in TS and OCD suggests that deletions previously associated with other neurodevelopmental disorders may also contribute to these phenotypes.
