Systematic tissue-specific functional annotation of the human genome highlights immune-related DNA elements for late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
Qiongshi Lu,Ryan L Powles,Sarah B. Abdallah,Derek Ou,Qian Wang,Yiming Hu,Yisi Lu,Wei Liu,Boyang Li,Shubhabrata Mukherjee,Paul K. Crane,Hongyu Zhao +11 more
TL;DR: The GenoSkyline-Plus annotations demonstrate that integrated genome annotations at the single tissue level provide a valuable tool for understanding the etiology of complex human diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
De Novo Damaging DNA Coding Mutations Are Associated With Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Overlap With Tourette's Disorder and Autism.
Carolina Cappi,Melody E. Oliphant,Zsanett Péter,Gwyneth Zai,Maria Conceição do Rosário,Catherine Sullivan,Abha R. Gupta,Ellen J. Hoffman,Manmeet Virdee,Emily Olfson,Sarah B. Abdallah,A. Jeremy Willsey,Roseli G. Shavitt,Euripedes C. Miguel,James L. Kennedy,Margaret A. Richter,Thomas V. Fernandez +16 more
TL;DR: These findings show a pathway toward systematic gene discovery in OCD via identification of DN damaging variants, and suggest larger cohorts of OCD parent-child trios will reveal more OCD risk genes and provide needed insights into underlying disease biology.

Qiongshi Lu,Ryan L Powles,Sarah B. Abdallah,Derek Ou,Qian Wang,Yiming Hu,Yisi Lu,Wei Liu,Shubhabrata Mukherjee,Paul K. Crane,Hongyu Zhao +10 more
TL;DR: The ability of GenoSkyline-Plus to accurately identify tissue-specific functionality in the human genome and provide unbiased, genome-wide insights into the genetic basis of human complex diseases is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Severe Illness Anxiety Treated by Integrating Inpatient Psychotherapy With Medical Care and Minimizing Reassurance
Albert T. Higgins-Chen,Sarah B. Abdallah,Jennifer B. Dwyer,Alfred P. Kaye,Alfred P. Kaye,Gustavo A. Angarita,Michael H. Bloch +6 more
TL;DR: The case of a woman with severe IAD who presented to the emergency room with increasing frequency over several months, despite regular outpatient medical visits and escalating psychiatric care is presented, and a general cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) protocol is integrated into medical care and decision-making.

Primary complex motor stereotypies are associated with de novo damaging DNA coding mutations that identify candidate risk genes and biological pathways
Thomas V. Fernandez,Zsanett P. Williams,Tina Kline,Shreenath Rajendran,Farhan Augustine,Nicole R. Davis Wright,Catherine Sullivan,Emily Olfson,Sarah B. Abdallah,Wenzhong Liu,Ellen J. Hoffman,Abha R. Gupta,Harvey S. Singer +12 more
TL;DR: Genes harboring de novo damaging variants in CMS probands show significant overlap with those in Tourette syndrome, ASD candidate genes, and those in ASD probands with high stereotypy scores, and exploratory biological pathway and gene ontology analysis highlight histone demethylation, organism development, cell motility, glucocorticoid receptor pathway, and ion channel transport.
