Hypotheses of single major locus transmission (autosomal and X chromosome) of major affective disorder (i.e., bipolar, unipolar, and schizoaffective) are tested using the Elston-Stewart likelihood method of pedigree segregation analysis. The sample consists of families of varying size ascertained through patients treated at the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland. We test hypotheses on subsamples of families according to: (1) diagnosis of proband (75 bipolar I, 22 bipolar II, 18 unipolar, and six schizoaffective); (2) extreme value of a biological trait in the proband ("low" monoamine oxidase, "low" cerebrospinal fluid serotonin metabolite 5-HIAA); and (3) positive response to lithium in the proband. We cannot find evidence for single major locus transmission of major affective disorder from segregation analysis in any subsample of family even when the diagnostic classification of ill phenotypes is widened to include possible affective "spectrum" diagnoses. In addition, linkage studies of 21 autosomal markers do not provide evidence for single major locus transmission of illness. The maximum lod score, found for 30 families at the MNS locus, was 1.39 at 20% recombination. |
