Journal ArticleDOI

Biological insights from 108 schizophrenia-associated genetic loci

Stephan Ripke, +354 more
- 24 Jul 2014 - 
TL;DR: Associations at DRD2 and several genes involved in glutamatergic neurotransmission highlight molecules of known and potential therapeutic relevance to schizophrenia, and are consistent with leading pathophysiological hypotheses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis of 74,046 individuals identifies 11 new susceptibility loci for Alzheimer's disease

Jean-Charles Lambert, +215 more
- 01 Dec 2013 - 
TL;DR: In addition to the APOE locus (encoding apolipoprotein E), 19 loci reached genome-wide significance (P < 5 × 10−8) in the combined stage 1 and stage 2 analysis, of which 11 are newly associated with Alzheimer's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study identifies variants at CLU and PICALM associated with Alzheimer's disease

Denise Harold, +86 more
- 01 Oct 2009 - 
TL;DR: A two-stage genome-wide association study of Alzheimer's disease involving over 16,000 individuals, the most powerful AD GWAS to date, produced compelling evidence for association with Alzheimer's Disease in the combined dataset.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic relationship between five psychiatric disorders estimated from genome-wide SNPs

S. Hong Lee, +405 more
- 01 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: Empirical evidence of shared genetic etiology for psychiatric disorders can inform nosology and encourages the investigation of common pathophysiologies for related disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association analyses identify 44 risk variants and refine the genetic architecture of major depression

Naomi R. Wray, +262 more
- 26 Apr 2018 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals with clinically assessed or self-reported depression identifies 44 independent and significant loci and finds important relationships of genetic risk for major depression with educational attainment, body mass, and schizophrenia.
