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.

The p Factor: One General Psychopathology Factor in the Structure of Psychiatric Disorders?

TL;DR: The structure of psychopathology is examined, taking into account dimensionality, persistence, co-occurrence, and sequential comorbidity of mental disorders across 20 years, from adolescence to midlife, to explain why it is challenging to find causes, consequences, biomarkers, and treatments with specificity to individual mental disorders.

Large-scale genome-wide association analysis of bipolar disorder identifies a new susceptibility locus near ODZ4

Pamela Sklar, +192 more
- 01 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: An analysis of all 11,974 bipolar disorder cases and 51,792 controls confirmed genome-wide significant evidence of association for CACNA1C and identified a new intronic variant in ODZ4, and a pathway comprised of subunits of calcium channels enriched in bipolar disorder association intervals was identified.

A polygenic burden of rare disruptive mutations in schizophrenia

TL;DR: Analysis of exome sequences of schizophrenia cases and controls shows a polygenic burden primarily arising from rare, disruptive mutations distributed across many genes, suggesting that population-based exome sequencing can discover risk alleles and complements established gene-mapping paradigms in neuropsychiatric disease.

Pleiotropy in complex traits: challenges and strategies

TL;DR: The evidence for pleiotropy in contemporary genetic mapping studies, new and established analytical approaches to identifying pleiotropic effects, sources of spurious cross-phenotype effects and study design considerations are discussed.
