Association between mitochondria-related genes and cognitive performance in the PsyCourse Study
Mitochondria generate energy through oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). The function of key OXPHOS proteins can be altered by variation in mitochondria-related genes, which may increase the risk of mental illness. We investigated the association of mitochondria-related genes and their genetic risk...

Zusammenfassung: | Mitochondria generate energy through oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). The function of key OXPHOS proteins can be altered by variation in mitochondria-related genes, which may increase the risk of mental illness. We investigated the association of mitochondria-related genes and their genetic risk burden with cognitive performance.
We leveraged cross-sectional data from 1320 individuals with a severe psychiatric disorder and 466 neurotypical individuals from the PsyCourse Study. The cognitive tests analyzed were the Trail-Making Test, Verbal Digit Span Test, Digit-Symbol Test, and Multiple Choice Vocabulary Intelligence Test. Association analyses between the cognitive tests, and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) mapped to mitochondria-related genes, and their polygenic risk score (PRS) for schizophrenia (SCZ) were performed with PLINK 1.9 and R program.
We found a significant association (FDR-adjusted p |
