4 LEARNING OBJECTIVE Explore the genetic risk for schizophrenia, and discuss the biological and environmental interactions that can be implicated in neuropsychiatric disorders.
5 GENES AND MENTAL ILLNESS Why Do We Study Them? Most risk for psychiatric illness is related to inheritance Genes transcend phenomenological diagnosis Genes represent mechanisms of disease Genes clarify the environment Genes identify at-risk individuals Genes will help individualize treatment Genes identify biological pathways for development of new treatments
6 COMPLEX DISORDERS LIKE MENTAL ILLNESS ARE POLYGENIC AND GENETICALLY HETEROGENEOUS Affected Person Unaffected Nonpenetrant Goldman D, et al. Nat Rev Gen. 2005;6(7):

14 GWAS The Inconvenient Truth The GWAS strategy in psychiatry actually succeeded precisely as much as should have been expected; the approach could never have lived up to the hype because Psychiatric disorders are syndromal, i.e., not distinct disease entities Biological heterogeneity is the rule Most complex biological processes are not linear GWAS = genome-wide association study
15 THE INCONVENIENT TRUTHS II Moreover, the GWAS strategy using the available SNP chips had to miss most of the heritability because of Heterogeneity Rare variants epigenetics Epistasis GENES DO NOT ENCODE FOR PSYCHIATRIC SYNDROMES

23 THE SIMPLE TRUTH ABOUT THE GENETIC COMPLEXITY OF SCHIZOPHRENIA Four Key Points 1. The genes for schizophrenia are not for schizophrenia 2. Risk for schizophrenia is critically dependent on context (i.e., interactions of genes and the environment) 3. Variable gene processing is the rule in brain and is the likely molecular basis of genetic association 4. The seeds of risk are sown long before the diagnostic illness is manifest

27 EFFECT OF GENOME-WIDE SIGNIFICANT ZNF804a RISK ASSOCIATED GENOTYPE ON CORTICAL DYNAMICS Is this a neural system mechanism of the association with schizophrenia? Esslinger C, et al. Science. 2009;324(5927):605.
28 GENETIC ASSOCIATION AND BRAIN FUNCTION Some Caveats Most genes are likely to impact on brain function Genetic association with brain function and neural mechanisms of clinical risk are not necessarily linked This linkage requires demonstration that the neural association is with a heritable, susceptibility-related phenotype (i.e., an intermediate phenotype)

47 CLINICAL CONNECTIONS Most complex behaviors are the result of multiple factors that interact biologically There are many pathways to what we call schizophrenia Most neuropsychiatric disorders are likely the result of epistatic genetic interactions and environmental modification Genetic risk for schizophrenia and for cognitive deficits in affected families share most of their genetic components
48 CLINICAL CONNECTIONS Many genes implicated in risk for schizophrenia show predictable effects and interactions at the level of cortical efficiency and network dynamics even in normal subjects Allelic heterogeneity, epistasis, environmental modification and novel RNA transcripts, typically most abundant during early brain development, will likely be the rule for schizophrenia susceptibility gene Rare cases with the diagnosis of schizophrenia have pathogenic structural chromosomal variations Take-home message: simple models don t work
