This special issue features extensive reviews of the current state-of-the-art of the field and adds new findings from twin and candidate gene studies on functional MRI. Here we present a brief overview and discuss a number of desirable future developments which include more specific a priori hypotheses, more standardization of MRI measurements within and across laboratories, and larger sample sizes that allows testing of multiple genes and their interactions up to a scale that allows genetic whole genome association studies. Based on the overall tenet of the contributions to this special issue we predict that imaging genetics will increasingly impact on the classification systems for psychiatric disorders and the early detection and treatment of vulnerable individuals. ß 2008 Elsevier B.V.

  • Imaging Genetics Approach to Parkinson's Disease and Its
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Imaging genetics approach to Parkinson’s disease and its correlation with clinical score Received: 07 November 2016 Mansu Kim1,2, Jonghoon Kim1,2, Seung-Hak Lee1,2 & Hyunjin Park2,3 Accepted: 24 March 2017 Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with both underlying Published: 21 April 2017 genetic factors and neuroimaging findings. Existing neuroimaging studies related to the genome in PD have mostly focused on certain candidate genes. The aim of our study was to construct a linear regression model using both genetic and neuroimaging features to better predict clinical scores compared to conventional approaches. We obtained neuroimaging and DNA genotyping data from a research database. Connectivity analysis was applied to identify neuroimaging features that could differentiate between healthy control (HC) and PD groups. A joint analysis of genetic and imaging information known as imaging genetics was applied to investigate genetic variants. We then compared the utility of combining different genetic variants and neuroimaging features for predicting the Movement Disorder Society-sponsored unified Parkinson’s disease rating scale (MDS-UPDRS) in a regression framework. The associative cortex, motor cortex, thalamus, and pallidum showed significantly different connectivity between the HC and PD groups. Imaging genetics analysis identified PARK2, PARK7, HtrA2, GIGYRF2, and SNCA as genetic variants that are significantly associated with imaging phenotypes. A linear regression model combining genetic and neuroimaging features predicted the MDS-UPDRS with lower error and higher correlation with the actual MDS-UPDRS compared to other models using only genetic or neuroimaging information alone. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, resting trem- ors, rigidity, and difficulty with voluntary movement1.

    Molecular Psychiatry (2013) 18, 38 -- 52 & 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1359-4184/13 www.nature.com/mp EXPERT REVIEW The emerging spectrum of allelic variation in schizophrenia: current evidence and strategies for the identification and functional characterization of common and rare variants BJ Mowry1,2 and J Gratten1 After decades of halting progress, recent large genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are finally shining light on the genetic architecture of schizophrenia. The picture emerging is one of sobering complexity, involving large numbers of risk alleles across the entire allelic spectrum. The aims of this article are to summarize the key genetic findings to date and to compare and contrast methods for identifying additional risk alleles, including GWAS, targeted genotyping and sequencing. A further aim is to consider the challenges and opportunities involved in determining the functional basis of genetic associations, for instance using functional genomics, cellular models, animal models and imaging genetics. We conclude that diverse approaches will be required to identify and functionally characterize the full spectrum of risk variants for schizophrenia. These efforts should adhere to the stringent standards of statistical association developed for GWAS and are likely to entail very large sample sizes. Nonetheless, now more than any previous time, there are reasons for optimism and the ultimate goal of personalized interventions and therapeutics, although still distant, no longer seems unattainable.

The course begins with a brief history of imaging genetics, including discussion on replicability and significance thresholds. Then, we will review recent findings in neuropsychiatric disease risk, what neuroimaging genetics can learn from neuropsychiatric genetics, and how neuroimaging genetics can be used to explain missing mechanisms in neuropsychiatric genetics. We will cover datasets and methods for conducting common and rare variant associations, as well as bioinformatic tools to interpret findings in the context of gene regulation. Overall this course will provide the neuroimager who is not familiar with genetics techniques an understanding of the current state genetics field when exploring neuroimaging phenotypes.
