Novel polygenic risk score links depression-related cortical transcriptomic changes to brain morphology and symptom severity

2021-03-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Our group developed a transcriptome-based polygenic risk score (T-PRS) that uses common genetic variants to capture ‘depression-like’ shifts in cortical gene expression. Here, we mapped T-PRS onto diagnosis and symptom severity in major depressive disorder (MDD) cases and controls from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC). To evaluate potential mechanisms, we further mapped T-PRS onto discre...
