X-chromosome methylation patterns in females with multiple sclerosis

This study identifies X-chromosome hypomethylation in female MS patients and links it to XCI escape genes and immune processes.

Mismatch repair gene specifications to the ACMG/AMP classification criteria: Consensus recommendations from the InSiGHT ClinGen Hereditary Colorectal Cancer / Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel

The paper specifies MMR gene-specific criteria to the ACMG/AMP classification system, reclassifying some variants and providing a framework for improved pathogenicity assessment.

Connectome architecture shapes large-scale cortical alterations in schizophrenia: a worldwide ENIGMA study

This study investigates how structural brain alterations in schizophrenia relate to network architecture, finding hub susceptibility and shared epicenters across disease stages and disorders.

Estimating multimodal brain variability in schizophrenia spectrum disorders: A worldwide ENIGMA study

This study examines structural brain heterogeneity in schizophrenia using multimodal MRI data from the ENIGMA dataset, finding higher frontotemporal heterogeneity and left parahippocampal homogeneity in patients.

Schizophrenia-associated somatic copy number variants from 12,834 cases reveal contribution to risk and recurrent, isoform-specific NRXN1 disruptions

This study identifies somatic copy number variants (sCNVs) in schizophrenia cases, revealing their contribution to risk and specific NRXN1 disruptions.

Common variants in breast cancer risk loci predispose to distinct tumor subtypes

The paper identifies breast cancer risk variants associated with tumor subtypes and shows their differential effects on luminal and non-luminal subtypes.

Combining genome-wide studies of breast, prostate, ovarian and endometrial cancers maps cross-cancer susceptibility loci and identifies new genetic associations

This study combines genome-wide association data from four cancers to identify shared and novel genetic associations and pleiotropic effects.

Multiethnic Meta-analysis Identifies New Loci for Pulmonary Function

This study identifies over 50 new genetic loci associated with pulmonary function through a multiethnic meta-analysis of 90,715 individuals.
