Abstract:Complex psychiatric disorders are resistant to whole-genome analysis due to genetic and etiological heterogeneity. Variation in resting electroencephalogram (EEG) is associated with common, complex psychiatric diseases including alcoholism, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorders, although not diagnostic for any of them. EEG traits for an individual are stable, variable between individuals, and moderately to highly heritable. Such intermediate phenotypes appear to be closer to underlying molecular processes than … Show more
“…The effects of variants may be context-dependent, leading to failures to detect loci in the absence of exposure, or in the presence of exposures that overwhelm the effects of genes [125]. The use of intermediate phenotypes that are less subject to environmental perturbation and closer to the function of molecular networks appears to amplify power of GWA [126]. If, despite the lack of evidence from transmission studies, 'epistasis is the rule', it may be necessary to test combinations of common alleles [127].…”

Impulsivity, defined as the tendency to act without foresight, comprises a multitude of constructs and is associated with a variety of psychiatric disorders. Dissecting different aspects of impulsive behaviour and relating these to specific neurobiological circuits would improve our understanding of the etiology of complex behaviours for which impulsivity is key, and advance genetic studies in this behavioural domain. In this review, we will discuss the heritability of some impulsivity constructs and their possible use as endophenotypes (heritable, disease-associated intermediate phenotypes). Several functional genetic variants associated with impulsive behaviour have been identified by the candidate gene approach and re-sequencing, and whole genome strategies can be implemented for discovery of novel rare and common alleles influencing impulsivity. Via deep sequencing an uncommon

stop codon, common in one population, was discovered, with implications for understanding impulsive behaviour in both humans and rodents and for future gene discovery.

“…Однако стоит отме-тить, что ассоциация была продемонстрирована только для двух из трех проанализированных выборок. В полногеномном исследовании (Hodgkinson et al, 2010) на выборке 322 американских индейцев найдена связь однонуклеотидных полиморфизмов в гене SGIP1 (SH3-domain GRB2-like endophilin-interacting protein 1) с мощностью тета-диапазона ЭЭГ.…”

“…Other studies have determined that the human electroencephalogram is influenced by the genome and also by a significant number of gene types (SGIP1, ST6GAL-NAC3, and UGDH) [22]. Moreover, it has been shown that specific hereditary genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 and proteins such as 14-3-3 [24] affect neuronal reactivity [22,25]. Genetic studies have demonstrated that the aforementioned genes and proteins are associated directly with two types of breast cancer [26][27][28][29]: hereditary and non-hereditary.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
