This dissertation investigated the genetic basis of violent criminal behavior, antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), and broader antisocial behavior through GWAS and meta-analyses in Finnish and international populations. Study I identified an intronic CDH13 variant (rs11649622, OR=2.7, p=4.19×10⁻⁶) associated with extremely violent offending, replicated in homicide offenders (p=5.3×10⁻⁷, OR=2.17). Study II revealed the first genome-wide significant association between LINC00951 variant rs4714329 (OR=1.59, p=1.6×10⁻⁹) and ASPD. Study III meta-analysis of 16,400 individuals found no genome-wide significant associations with broader antisocial behavior, though polygenic risk scores explained ~5% of phenotypic variance.

About TPH2

This gene encodes a member of the pterin-dependent aromatic acid hydroxylase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the first and rate limiting step in the biosynthesis of serotonin, an important hormone and neurotransmitter. Mutations in this gene may be associated with psychiatric diseases such as bipolar affective disorder and major depression. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
