Resumen

Bipolar disorder (BD) is a common and highly heritable mental illness and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have robustly identified the first common genetic variants involved in disease aetiology. The data also provide strong evidence for the presence of multiple additional risk loci, each contributing a relatively small effect to BD susceptibility. Large samples are necessary to detect these risk loci. Here we present results from the largest BD GWAS to date by investigating 2.3 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a sample of 24,025 patients and controls. We detect 56 genome-wide significant SNPs in five chromosomal regions including previously reported risk loci ANK3, ODZ4 and TRANK1, as well as the risk locus ADCY2 (5p15.31) and a region between MIR2113 and POU3F2 (6q16.1). ADCY2 is a key enzyme in cAMP signalling and our finding provides new insights into the biological mechanisms involved in the development of BD.

Funding Information:
We are grateful to all patients and control subjects who contributed to this study. This study was supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) through the Integrated Genome Research Network (IG) MooDS (Systematic Investigation of the Molecular Causes of Major Mood Disorders and Schizophrenia; grant 01GS08144 to M.M.N. and S.C., grant 01GS08147 to M.R.), under the auspices of the National Genome Research Network plus (NGFNplus), and through the Integrated Network IntegraMent (Integrated Understanding of Causes and Mechanisms in Mental Disorders), under the auspices of the e:Med Programme. M.M.N. is a member of the DFG-funded Excellence-Cluster ImmunoSensation. M.M.N. also received support from the Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach-Stiftung. Canadian patients were genotyped within the ConLiGen project (www.ConLiGen.org), supported by a grant from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft to M.R., M.B., and T.G.S. (RI 908/7-1). Controls for Germany II were drawn from the Heinz Nixdorf Recall Study (HNR) cohort, which was established with the support of the Heinz Nixdorf Foundation. Recruitment of the Australian sample was supported by the Australian NHMRC program grant number 1037196. The collection of the Canadian patients has been supported by a grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research #64410 to M.A. Our study uses data generated by the GABRIEL consortium (controls for the sample Russia). Funding for these data was provided by the European Commission as part of GABRIEL contract number 018996 under the Integrated Program LSH-2004-1.2.5-1. Post genomic approaches to understand the molecular basis of asthma aiming at a preventive or therapeutic control and the Wellcome Trust under award 084703. Canadian controls were drawn from the French Canadian study (SLSJ) that was partially supported by the Canada Research Chair, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (Operating grant No. MOP-13506) and the Quebec Respiratory Network of the Fonds de recherche en Santé du Québec (FRQS). Polish controls were produced by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)/Centre National de Genotypage (CNG) GWAS Initiative. We thank the Bipolar Disorder Working Group of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC-BD) for providing access to the relevant data.
