  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Emerging evidence emphasizes the strong impact of regulatory genomic elements in neurodevelopmental processes and the complex pathways of brain disorders. The present genome-wide quantitative trait loci analyses explore the <jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>-regulatory effects of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on DNA methylation (meQTL) and gene expression (eQTL) in 110 human hippocampal biopsies. We identify <jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>-meQTLs at 14,118 CpG methylation sites and <jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>-eQTLs for 302 3′-mRNA transcripts of 288 genes. Hippocampal <jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>-meQTL-CpGs are enriched in flanking regions of active promoters, CpG island shores, binding sites of the transcription factor CTCF and brain eQTLs. <jats:italic>Cis</jats:italic>-acting SNPs of hippocampal meQTLs and eQTLs significantly overlap schizophrenia-associated SNPs. Correlations of CpG methylation and RNA expression are found for 34 genes. Our comprehensive maps of <jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>-acting hippocampal meQTLs and eQTLs provide a link between disease-associated SNPs and the regulatory genome that will improve the functional interpretation of non-coding genetic variants in the molecular genetic dissection of brain disorders.</jats:p>
