An integrated genetic-epigenetic analysis of schizophrenia: evidence for co-localization of genetic associations and differential DNA methylation
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Schizophrenia is a highly heritable, neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by episodic psychosis and altered cognitive function. Despite success in identifying genetic variants associated with schizophrenia, there remains uncertainty about the causal genes involved in disease pathogenesis and how their function is regulated. RESULTS: We performed a multi-stage epigenome-wide association study, quantifying genome-wide patterns of DNA methylation in a total of 1714 individuals from three independent sample cohorts. We have identified multiple differentially methylated positions and regions consistently associated with schizophrenia across the three cohorts; these effects are independent of important confounders such as smoking. We also show that epigenetic variation at multiple loci across the genome contributes to the polygenic nature of schizophrenia. Finally, we show how DNA methylation quantitative trait loci in combination with Bayesian co-localization analyses can be used to annotate extended genomic regions nominated by studies of schizophrenia, and to identify potential regulatory variation causally involved in disease. CONCLUSIONS: This study represents the first systematic integrated analysis of genetic and epigenetic variation in schizophrenia, introducing a methodological approach that can be used to inform epigenome-wide association study analyses of other complex traits and diseases. We demonstrate the utility of using a polygenic risk score to identify molecular variation associated with etiological variation, and of using DNA methylation quantitative trait loci to refine the functional and regulatory variation associated with schizophrenia risk variants. Finally, we present strong evidence for the co-localization of genetic associations for schizophrenia and differential DNA methylation.

Figures
![Fig. 1 It is critical to control for smoking in an epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) of schizophrenia. Manhattan plots comparing association P-values (y-axis, −log10 scale) against genomic location (x-axis) for (a) an EWAS of schizophrenia case–control status without inclusion of a smoking covariate, (b) a published EWAS of tobacco smoking (never versus current) [22], and (c) an EWAS of schizophrenia case–control status including a DNA methylation-derived smoking score as a covariate. There is considerable overlap between the associated loci in panels a and b (e.g., on chromosomes 2, 5, 6, and 19), implying that the elevated rate and intensity of smoking in patients with schizophrenia [25–27] is a severe confounder in this analysis. In contrast, there is no overlap in the associated loci shown in panels b and c, suggesting that the derived smoking score effectively removes these false positives](/paper-figures/3dd11689a1dc4123ae5e238aeb3f5cac/an-integrated-genetic-epigenetic-analysis-of-schizophrenia-evidence-for-co-figure-1.jpg)
![Fig. 2 Replication of schizophrenia-associated DNA methylation differences identified in the phase 1 analysis in two independent cohorts. Shown are scatterplots demonstrating the concordance in effect size [schizophrenia-associated DNA methylation difference (%)] between the phase 1 (case–control) cohort (n = 675) (x-axis) and either the (a) phase 2 (case–control) cohort (n = 847) or (b) phase 3 (n = 96 monozygotic twin pairs) cohort for probes associated with schizophrenia at both the experiment-wide (P < 1 × 10−7; red circles) and discovery (P < 5 × 10−5; blue triangles) P-value thresholds. Many of these individual DNA methylation sites are significantly associated with schizophrenia in the replication cohorts (Table 1 and Additional file 2: Table S3). Meta-analyses across the three independent cohorts identified many additional sites significantly associated with schizophrenia at P < 1 × 10−7.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
