The heritability of volumes of brain structures and its relationship to age: a review of twin and family studies.

Ageing research reviews - 1 Jan 2014

Batouli Seyed Amir Hossein, Trollor Julian N, Wen Wei, Sachdev Perminder S

Abstract excerpt

Total brain volume (BV) and the volumes of brain substructures are influenced by genes, the magnitude of which changes with age. One approach to the examination of genetic influences on the volumes of brain structures is to determine their heritability using twin and family studies. We reviewed published cross-sectional studies which examined heritability in healthy subjects at different ages. We identified 32...
