abstract = {Recent genetic studies found the A allele of the variant
rs1006737 in the alpha 1C subunit of the L-type
voltage-gated calcium channel (CACNA1C) gene to be
over-represented in patients with psychosis, including
schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive
disorder. In these disorders, attention deficits are among
the main cognitive symptoms and have been related to altered
neural activity in cerebral attention networks. The
particular effect of CACNA1C on neural function, such as
attention networks, remains to be elucidated.The current
event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
study investigated the effect of the CACNA1C gene on brain
activity in 80 subjects while performing a scanner-adapted
version of the Attention Network Test (ANT). Three domains
of attention were probed simultaneously: alerting, orienting
and executive control of attention.Risk allele carriers
showed impaired performance in alerting and orienting in
addition to reduced neural activity in the right inferior
parietal lobule [Brodmann area (BA) 40] during orienting and
in the medial frontal gyrus (BA 8) during executive control
of attention. These areas belong to networks that have been
related to impaired orienting and executive control
mechanisms in neuropsychiatric disorders.Our results suggest
that CACNA1C plays a role in the development of specific
attention deficits in psychiatric disorders by modulation of
neural attention networks.},
