Our genome-wide association study points to novel locus for Tourette Syndrome.
February 2, 2023
Abstract
Background: Tourette syndrome (TS) is a childhood-onset neurodevelopmental disorder of complex genetic architecture and is characterized by multiple motor tics and at least one vocal tic persisting for more than 1 year.
Methods: We performed a genome-wide meta-analysis integrating a novel TS cohort with previously published data, resulting in a sample size of 6133 individuals with TS and 13,565 ancestry-matched control participants.
Results: We identified a genome-wide significant locus on chromosome 5q15. Integration of expression quantitative trait locus, Hi-C (high-throughput chromosome conformation capture), and genome-wide association study data implicated the NR2F1 gene and associated long noncoding RNAs within the 5q15 locus. Heritability partitioning identified statistically significant enrichment in brain tissue histone marks, while polygenic risk scoring of brain volume data identified statistically significant associations with right and left thalamus volumes and right putamen volume.
Conclusions: Our work presents novel insights into the neurobiology of TS, thereby opening up new directions for future studies.

Paschou et al. Enhancing neuroimaging genetics through meta-analysis for Tourette syndrome (ENIGMA-TS): A worldwide platform for collaboration
Tourette syndrome (TS) is characterized by multiple motor and vocal tics, and high-comorbidity rates with other neuropsychiatric disorders. Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), major depressive disorder (MDD), and anxiety disorders (AXDs) are among the most prevalent TS comorbidities. To date, studies on TS brain structure and function have been limited in size with efforts mostly fragmented. This leads to low-statistical power, discordant results due to differences in approaches, and hinders the ability to stratify patients according to clinical parameters and investigate comorbidity patterns. Here, we present the scientific premise, perspectives, and key goals that have motivated the establishment of the Enhancing Neuroimaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis for TS (ENIGMA-TS) working group. The ENIGMA-TS working group is an international collaborative effort bringing together a large network of investigators who aim to understand brain structure and function in TS and dissect the underlying neurobiology that leads to observed comorbidity patterns and clinical heterogeneity. Previously collected TS neuroimaging data will be analyzed jointly and integrated with TS genomic data, as well as equivalently large and already existing studies of highly comorbid OCD, ADHD, ASD, MDD, and AXD. Our work highlights the power of collaborative efforts and transdiagnostic approaches, and points to the existence of different TS subtypes. ENIGMA-TS will offer large-scale, high-powered studies that will lead to important insights toward understanding brain structure and function and genetic effects in TS and related disorders, and the identification of biomarkers that could help inform improved clinical practice.

Immune Pathways are related to Tourette Syndrome
January 11, 2021
Abstract
Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder of complex genetic architecture involving multiple interacting genes. Here, we sought to elucidate the pathways that underlie the neurobiology of the disorder through genome-wide analysis. We analyzed genome-wide genotypic data of 3581 individuals with TS and 7682 ancestry-matched controls and investigated associations of TS with sets of genes that are expressed in particular cell types and operate in specific neuronal and glial functions. We employed a self-contained, set-based association method (SBA) as well as a competitive gene set method (MAGMA) using individual-level genotype data to perform a comprehensive investigation of the biological background of TS. Our SBA analysis identified three significant gene sets after Bonferroni correction, implicating ligand-gated ion channel signaling, lymphocytic, and cell adhesion and transsynaptic signaling processes. MAGMA analysis further supported the involvement of the cell adhesion and trans-synaptic signaling gene set. The lymphocytic gene set was driven by variants in FLT3, raising an intriguing hypothesis for the involvement of a neuroinflammatory element in TS pathogenesis. The indications of involvement of ligand-gated ion channel signaling reinforce the role of GABA in TS, while the association of cell adhesion and trans-synaptic signaling gene set provides additional support for the role of adhesion molecules in neuropsychiatric disorders. This study reinforces previous findings but also provides new insights into the neurobiology of TS.

Dr Paschou receives NSF award
May 25, 2020
Dr Paschou receives NSF funding to pursue "Randomized Matrix-Sketching Approaches for the Analysis of Massive Human Genomics Data".
Researchers in human genetics have now access to unprecedented amounts of genetic information characterizing how truly different we are from one another. From a Computer Science and Applied Mathematics perspective, the resulting datasets can be thought of as matrices, with the rows representing individuals and the columns representing loci in the genome that correspond to common or rare polymorphisms. Analyzing such datasets, Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have reported over 10,000 strong associations between genetic variants and complex traits. However, tools that allow efficient analysis of very large scale datasets are still missing. Extracting useful information from such datasets promotes the progress of science and, at the same time, advances public health, prosperity, and welfare. This project will bridge the gap between state-of-the-art algorithms developed in the theoretical computer science community and the application of such algorithms to the analysis of the increasingly larger volume of datasets in the human genetics community.
This project will explore how randomized linear algebra, from a theoretical and practical standpoint, can be used to speed human genetics data analytics. The first research direction will investigate Linear Mixed Models or LMMs: LMMs form a linear model of the genetic effects on the phenotype of interest. Randomized linear algebra tools will be used to speed up the solution of the resulting optimization problem, without sacrificing accuracy. The second research direction will investigate Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS), which typically operate by first selecting a large number of genetic markers (often in the tens of thousands) out of all available markers (often in the many millions) using single marker significance tests. This feature selection stage is followed by building a regression models on the selected markers to predict phenotypes. Randomized linear algebra tools will be used to speed up PRS approaches, while preserving generalization accuracy. Finally, the third research direction, will explore how the particular structure of population genetics datasets can be leveraged in order to design improved randomized linear algebra tools for the analysis of human genetics datasets.

The first farmers were also sailors!
June 9, 2014
Our study on a "Maritime route of colonization of Europe" appears in the Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). We show for the first time that a prominent route of Neolithic expansion into Europe was through island-hoping from the Anatolian coast. Up until now, a hypothesis of migration by land through the Balkans had mostly been favoured. Our data suggest that Crete and the islands of the Aegean acted as a bridge connecting Anatolia to Southeastern Europe.
Dr. Paschou receives EXCELLENCE Award (ARISTEIA II) to study the genetic structure of the Greek populations and hellenic diaspora
January 3, 2014
Coordinated by Dr. Peristera Paschou, the proposal entitled «GENOMAP.GR: A genomic reference map of Greece. Studying the structure and history of Greek sub-populations and the Hellenic diaspora was recently funded under the "ARISTEIA II" programme (EXCELLENCE AWARD). The programme "ARISTEIA II" is co-financed by the European Social Fund and National Funds in the framework of the Operational Programme "Education and Lifelong Learning".
The structure and demographic history of the Greek population is very complex depicting a mosaic of historical events and including Greek sub-groups that maintain distinct traditions and private dialects. This rich history must have contributed to substantial heterogeneity, which remains until now unexplored and is the focus of this study. In collaboration with Dr. George Stamatoyannopoulos, Professor of Genome Sciences at the University of Washington, and Dr. Petros Drineas, Associate Professor of Computer Science at Rensselaer University, Dr. Paschou will coordinate the creation of a detailed genomic reference map of Greek sub-populations. Analyzing genomewide data, this study will help document and preserve the history of self-defined Hellenic sub-groups, that are culturally and linguistically unique, but are being lost due to panmixia and population movements. Furthermore, results will have great importance for understanding the history of human migrations into Europe, while the biobank that will be established will prove an invaluable resource for the study of the genetic etiology of complex human disorders in Greece with a potential major impact on public health.
Our study of ancient DNA sheds light into the origin of the Minoans
May 14, 2013
Dr. Paschou played a central role in a study which appeared today in Nature Communications. Comparing more than 14,000 mitochondrial DNA sequences of 135 ancient and modern populations to ancient samples from the Minoan era (5,000 years before present) the team showed that the Minoans are most closely related to Europeans and not African populations. Dr. Paschou, who led statistical analysis in collaboration with Dr. Petros Drineas at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, underlines: "The fact that modern day inhabitants of Crete still carry the maternal genetic signature of the Minoans is quite striking." and continues "This study is an excellent example of the power of interdisciplinarity for the study of population genetics." The study was led by Prof. George Stamatoyannopoulos of the University of Washingthon.
