TL;DR

A cross-disorder transcriptomic framework was applied to identify shared molecular dysregulation across ASD, BD, and SCZ and identified 20 high-confidence recurrent genes, with pronounced transcriptional convergence observed between BD and SCZ.

Autism-specific spliceosomal transcriptomic signatures in prefrontal cortex contrasted with bipolar disorder.

These results support transcriptomic divergence in the prefrontal cortex, with ASD characterized by spliceosomal dysregulation, contrasting with metal ion response, vascular regulation and inflammation-associated signals in BD.

Rare variation illuminates the distinct and pleiotropic genetic architecture of autism across neuropsychiatric traits

This study finds that rare variants across hundreds of genes contribute to autism with variable phenotypic outcomes, and clusters them based on association evidence from large-scale studies of developmental disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and epilepsy.

Identifying and Characterising Common Genetic Differences in Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder

Case-Case GWAS is used to identify common genetic variants differentially associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, analysing 67,390 schizophrenia cases and 41,917 bipolar disorder cases and demonstrating that genuine divergent genetic effects exist beyond the substantial shared liability.

Gene Signalling Pathways, Putative Biomarkers and Hypothetical Modulation in Autism Spectrum Disorders

Integrative pathogenetic mechanisms of ASD are explored, encompassing prenatal viral exposure, alterations in serotonin and oxytocin signaling pathways, regulation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, SHANK proteins, and members of the Solute Carrier protein family.

Disorder-specific and shared genetic architecture underlying schizophrenia and bipolar disorder

It is shown that SCZ and BIP genetic risk is best understood as biologically distinguishable shared and disorder-predominant dimensions that differentially map onto cognitive, cardiometabolic, immune, and molecular architecture.
