A genetics-first approach to understanding autism and schizophrenia spectrum disorders: the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

Molecular Psychiatry, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 28(1), P. 341 - 353

Published: Oct. 3, 2022

Recently, increasing numbers of rare pathogenic genetic variants have been identified that are associated with variably elevated risks a range neurodevelopmental outcomes, notably including Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Schizophrenia (SSD), and Intellectual Disability (ID). This review is organized along three main questions: First, how can we unify the exclusively descriptive basis our current psychiatric diagnostic classification system recognition an identifiable, highly penetrant risk factor in proportion patients ASD or SSD? Second, what be learned from studies individuals SSD who share common basis? And third, accounts for observed variable penetrance pleiotropy neuropsychiatric phenotypes same variant? In this review, focus on findings clinical preclinical 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS). particular variant not only one most among list known variants, but also benefits relatively long research history. Consequently, 22q11DS appealing model as it allows us to: (1) elucidate specific genotype-phenotype associations, (2) prospectively study behaviorally defined classifications, such SSD, context known, well-characterized basis, (3) mechanisms underpinning pleiotropy, phenomena far-reaching ramifications practice. We discuss animal vitro relate to observations human help factors, genetic, environmental, stochastic, impact expression 22q11DS, may inform underlying general population. conclude priorities field, which pave way novel therapeutics.

Abstract We assessed the relationship of gene copy number variation (CNV) in mental health/neurodevelopmental traits and diagnoses, physical health cognition a community sample 7100 unrelated children youth European or East Asian ancestry (Spit for Science). Clinically significant susceptibility CNVs were present 3.9% participants associated with elevated scores on continuous measure attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) (P = 5.0 × 10−3), longer response inhibition (a cognitive deficit found several neurodevelopmental disorders; P 1.0 10−2) increased prevalence diagnoses 1.9 10−6, odds ratio: 3.09), specifically ADHD, autism spectrum anxiety learning problems/learning (P’s < 0.01).

Consensus reporting guidelines to address gaps in descriptions of ultra-rare genetic conditions

Published: April 6, 2024

Abstract Genome-wide sequencing and genetic matchmaker services are propelling a new era of genotype-driven ascertainment novel conditions. The degree to which reported phenotype data in discovery-focused studies address informational priorities for clinicians families is unclear. We identified reports published from 2017 2021 10 genetics journals Mendelian disorders. adjudicated the quality detail via 46 questions pertaining six priority domains: (I) Development, cognition, mental health; (II) Feeding growth; (III) Medication use treatment history; (IV) Pain, sleep, life; (V) Adulthood; (VI) Epilepsy. For subset articles, all subsequent follow-up case descriptions were assessed similar manner. A modified Delphi approach was used develop consensus reporting guidelines, with input content experts across four countries. In total, 200 3243 screened publications met inclusion criteria. Relevant phenotypic details each 6 domains rated superficial or deficient >87% papers. example, less than 10% provided regarding neuropsychiatric diagnoses “behavioural issues”, about type/nature feeding problems. Follow-up ( n = 95) rarely contributed this additional data. summary, information relevant clinical management, counselling, stated patients lacking many newly described diseases. PHELIX (PHEnotype LIsting fiX) guideline checklists developed improve genomic era.
