Effect of DISC1 SNPs on brain structure in healthy controls and patients with a history of psychosis
ReviewN=113Anna K. Kähler et al.(2012)· American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics

This systematic review and validation study examined psychosis-associated SNPs and their effects on brain volumetry in 113 subjects (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, at-risk mental state, and healthy controls). Of 25 studies identified in the systematic review implicating 7 SNPs in 5 genes, the authors tested these variants using voxel-based morphometry. They found FWER-corrected associations for CACNA1C rs769087-A with larger bilateral hippocampus and thalamus white matter (p = 0.026 and p = 0.036) and with larger superior frontal gyrus volume. Higher replication concordance was found for CACNA1C, ZNF804A, and BDNF variants, supporting their involvement in psychosis and brain structure.

About ZNF804A

The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger binding protein. Polymorphisms in this gene, especially rs1344706, are thought to confer increased susceptibility to schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and heroin addiciton. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
