Synopsis

Keywords: Psychiatric Disorders, Genetics, Schizophrenia

Cognitive dysfunction is considered to be one of the core symptom dimensions of schizophrenia. To deconstruct the underlying etiological behind cognitive deficits from a more integrated and multidimensional perspective, we established a trans-scale dataset at the level of the individual corresponding to each participant and control, containing blood-sample transcriptome profile, neuroimaging endophenotypes, and cognitive ability. Multivariate correlation analysis and mediation analysis demonstrated that the gene-brain-cognition associations were exsisted in healthy controls, whereas disrupted in patients with schizophrenia. These results provide a preliminary clue in comprehending the misaligned relationship between the microscale biological pathways and macroscopic phenotypes in schizophrenia.
