Linking GWAS to pharmacological treatments for psychiatric disorders

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple disease-associated genetic variations across different psychiatric disorders raising the question of how these genetic variants relate to the corresponding pharmacological treatments. In this talk, I will outline our work investigating whether functional information from a range of open bioinformatics datasets such as protein interaction network (PPI), brain eQTL, and gene expression pattern across the brain can uncover the relationship between GWAS-identified genetic variation and the genes targeted by current drugs for psychiatric disorders. Focusing on four psychiatric disorders---ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and major depressive disorder---we assess relationships between the gene targets of drug treatments and GWAS hits and show that while incorporating information derived from functional bioinformatics data, such as the PPI network and spatial gene expression, can reveal links for bipolar disorder, the overall correspondence between treatment targets and GWAS-implicated genes in psychiatric disorders rarely exceeds null expectations. This relatively low degree of correspondence across modalities suggests that the genetic mechanisms driving the risk for psychiatric disorders may be distinct from the pathophysiological mechanisms used for targeting symptom manifestations through pharmacological treatments and that novel approaches for understanding and treating psychiatric disorders may be required.
