Analysis of shared heritability in common disorders of the brain
Anttila, Verneri; Bulik-Sullivan, Brendan; Finucane, Hilary K.; Walters, Raymond K.; Bras, Jose; Duncan, Laramie; Escott-Price, ValentinaDisorders of the brain can exhibit considerable epidemiological comorbidity and often share symptoms, provoking debate about their etiologic overlap. We quantified the genetic sharing of 25 brain disorders from genome-wide association studies of 265,218 patients and 784,643 control participants and assessed their relationship to 17 phenotypes from 1,191,588 individuals. Psychiatric disorders share common varian...
Linkage disequilibrium and haplotype homozygosity in population samples genotyp...
Wang, Hui; Lin, Chia-Ho; Service, Susan; Chen, Yuguo; Freimer, Nelson; Sabatti, Chiara; Karayiorgou, Maria; Roos, J. Louw; Pretorious, HermanObjective: Analyze the information contained in homozygous haplotypes detected with high density genotyping. Methods: We analyze the genotypes of ∼2,500 markers on chr 22 in 12 population samples, each including 200 individuals. We develop a measure of disequilibrium based on haplotype homozygosity and an algorithm to identify genomic segments characterized by non-random homozygosity (NRH), taking into account ...
