Heritability of Cerebral Blood Flow and the Correlation to Schizophrenia Spectrum Disorders: A Pseudo-continuous Arterial Spin Labeling Twin Study

Abstract: Whether aberrant cerebral blood flow (CBF) in schizophrenia is affected by genetic influences, and consequently a potential marker for genetic susceptibility, is unknown. Our aims were to determine the heritability of CBF in thalamic, frontal, and striatal areas, and to ascertain if associations with disease were under genetic influence. Monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs concordant (n = 2) or discordant (n = 20) for schizophrenia spectrum disorders (ICD-10 F2x.x), matched on sex and age with dizygotic (DZ; n = 20) a… Show more

“…Effects in these regions do, however, also correspond with results of previous ROI-based studies, which include increased putamen rCBF in CHR patients (Kindler et al ., 2018) which was correlated with positive symptom severity. Greater perfusion in the putamen and thalamus has also been identified as a potential marker of genetic susceptibility for schizophrenia spectrum disorders in a neuroimaging twin study (Legind et al ., 2019). Conversely, although both increased (Allen et al ., 2016) and decreased (Kindler et al ., 2018) prefrontal perfusion has been observed in CHR and established psychosis groups (Schobel et al ., 2009), we did not find differences here in the present exploratory analyses.…”
