摘要

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is a prevalent and costly psychiatriccondition that causes great suffering for afflicted individuals [4]. Centralfor SAD is the fear of being evaluated, and social situations are eitheravoided or endured with great anxiety. The current treatment optionsleave a large proportion still suffering. Thus, proper understanding ofthe etiological processes leading to SAD is important for developmentof novel treatments and prevention strategies. An important contributionto this end is the first report of structural brain alterations suggestedto be candidate endophenotypes for SAD by Bas-Hoogendamand colleagues in this issue of EBioMedicine [1,2]. The authors useddata from the innovative multiplex, multigenerational Leiden FamilyLab Study on Social Anxiety Disorder including 110 participants,consisting of those with SAD and unaffected family members from 8families genetically enriched for SAD [2]. Heritability estimates ofthree measures of brain morphology were derived from anatomicalT1-weightedmagnetic resonance images.Moderate-to-high heritabilityof SAD-associated morphological changes was found in the volume ofthe globus pallidus, cortical thickness in frontal and temporal regions,as well as the cortical surface area of the fusiform gyrus.
