Article Synopsis
- - Transposable elements (TEs) may increase the risk of neuropsychiatric diseases as they are active in neuronal cells, but traditional genome-wide association studies (GWAS) typically overlook these structural variants.
- - In a study involving 17,000 polymorphic TEs, researchers found 76 that are linked to disease haplotypes identified by GWAS, suggesting a connection between TEs and neuropsychiatric conditions.
- - Among these, 10 specific TE insertions showed potential regulatory effects on gene expression in human neural stem cells, indicating they could play a causal role in neurological and psychiatric disorders.
