Using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing we generated <i>AS3MT</i> knockout SH-SY5Y cell lines and used RNA-seq to identify significant changes in gene expression in pathways associated with neuronal development, inflammation, extracellular matrix formation, and RNA processing, including dysregulation of other genes strongly implicated in schizophrenia.

In this study, we examined the genetic liability for eight major psychiatric disorder phenotypes under both a disorder-specific and a transdiagnostic framework. In a deeply-phenotyped sample (n=513) consisting of 452 patients from tertiary care with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and/or substance use disorders (SUD) and 61 unaffected comparison individuals, we derived subject-specific multi-base polygenic risk score (PRS) profiles and assessed their associations with psychiatric diagnoses, comorbidity status, as well as cross-disorder behavioral dimensions. High PRS for depression was unselectively associated with the diagnosis of SUD, ADHD, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and the comorbidities among them. In the dimensional approach, four distinct functional domains were uncovered, namely the negative valence, social, cognitive, and regulatory systems, closely matching the major functional domains proposed by the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework. Critically, the genetic predisposition for depression was selectively reflected in the functional aspect of negative valence systems but not others. This study highlights a misalignment between current psychiatric nosology and the underlying psychiatric genetic etiology, and underscores the effectiveness of the dimensional approach in both the functional characterization of psychiatric patients and the delineation of the genetic liability for psychiatric disorders.","PeriodicalId":7673,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2022-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87015850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This form of insanity was thought to arise only in families with neuropathic traits. Degeneration theory, proposed by Morel, postulated a within-family “evolution” of increasingly severe psychopathology, typically beginning with mild neuropathic traits and associated idiosyncrasies, and progressing over generations to hereditary madness, mental retardation, epilepsy, and eventual sterility. LdS took strong positions in favor of (i) the heterogeneous transmission of mental illness within families, (ii) consideration of both direct and collateral relatives, and (iii) the inheritance of a predisposition to illness, not the illness itself. He carefully examined the wide range of psychopathology and physical stigmata that occurred in what he called “inheritors” of the neuropathic trait. A unique feature of his work was the use of familial patterns of psychopathology to define a psychiatric disorder. While the theory of HM did not gain wide popularity outside of 19th century France, the concept of neuropathic traits was used extensively in early 20th century psychiatric genetics.</p>","PeriodicalId":7673,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics","volume":"189 3-4","pages":"51-59"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2022-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48837819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
