Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several loci associated with ADHD. However, understanding the biological relevance of these genetic loci has proven to be difficult. Here, we conduct an ADHD transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) consisting of 19,099 cases and 34,194 controls and identify 9 transcriptome-wide significant hits, of which 6 genes were not implicated in the original GWAS. We demonstrate that two of the previous GWAS hits can be largely explained by expression regulation. Probabilistic causal fine-mapping of TWAS signals prioritizes\n                    <jats:italic>KAT2B<\/jats:italic>\n                    with a posterior probability of 0.467 in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and\n                    <jats:italic>TMEM161B<\/jats:italic>\n                    with a posterior probability of 0.838 in the amygdala. Furthermore, pathway enrichment identifies dopaminergic and norepinephrine pathways, which are highly relevant for ADHD. Overall, our findings highlight the power of TWAS to identify and prioritize putatively causal genes.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467-019-12450-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,1]],"date-time":"2019-10-01T06:02:32Z","timestamp":1569909752000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":110,"title":["Transcriptome-wide association study of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder identifies associated genes and phenotypes"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Calwing","family":"Liao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandre D.","family":"Laporte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dan","family":"Spiegelman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0931-5247","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fulya","family":"Ak\u00e7imen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ridha","family":"Joober","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patrick A.","family":"Dion","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guy A.","family":"Rouleau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"12450_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"15020","DOI":"10.1038\/nrdp.2015.20","volume":"1","author":"SV Faraone","year":"2015","unstructured":"Faraone, S.
