Contribution of common and rare variants to bipolar disorder susceptibility in extended pedigrees from population isolates. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Current evidence from case/control studies indicates that genetic risk for psychiatric disorders derives primarily from numerous common variants, each with a small phenotypic impact. The literature describing apparent segregation of bipolar disorder (BP)

Traumatic Stress Interacts With Bipolar Disorder Genetic Risk to Increase Risk for Suicide Attempts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective Bipolar disorder (BD) is one of the most heritable psychiatric conditions and is associated with high suicide risk. To explore the reasons for this link, this study examined the interaction between traumatic stress and BD polygenic risk ...

Assessing thyroid cancer risk using polygenic risk scores [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified at least 10 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) risk. Most of these SNPs are common variants with small to moderate effect sizes. Here we assessed the combined genetic effects of these variants on PTC risk by using summarized GWAS ...

Genetic predisposition, Aβ misfolding in blood plasma, and Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2021
Alzheimer’s disease is highly heritable and characterized by amyloid plaques and tau tangles in the brain. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between genetic predisposition, Aβ misfolding in blood plasma, a unique marker of ...
