The main purpose of the current study is to investigate sex-specific intergenerational transmission patterns on the human brain in major psychiatric disorders including depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. The intergenerational transmission refers to the transfer of traits and behaviors from parents to offspring. Specifically, depression has been shown to exhibit strong matrilineal transmission patterns. A large body of studies has also implicated the corticolimbic circuitry as the biological substrates of emotion. However, to date, there have been no neuroimaging studies that examined the neurobiological evidence of female-specific intergenerational transmission patterns of human brain in depression. We will employ an unique approach of recruiting and assessing combinations of depressed parents and their high-risk offspring using neuroimaging techniques. We hypothesize that depressed mother and high-risk daughter dyads reveal significantly greater association compared to other parent-offspring pairings in the corticolimbic regions.
Other major psychiatric conditions are also considered strongly gender biased. In schizophrenia, diagnosis is much more common in boys and young men than in girls, whereas diagnosis in middle age or older is substantially more frequent in women. Rates of bipolar disorder do not vary between men and women, yet a genetic polymorphism strongly associated with the disorder is relevant to risk in women but not men. Autism spectrum disorder is considered four or five times as prevalent in boys compared in girls. The neurobiological substrates for these sex biases in disease prevalence are still unknown. We therefore believe that understanding the intergenerational transmission of behavioral and neurobiological phenotypes is critical in elucidating the etiology of such sex-biased psychiatric diseases.

Exploring the neurobiological evidence
The brain regions where specific parent-offspring pairs (e,g, depressed mother and high-risk daughter dyads) consistently show greater associations compared to other parent and offspring dyads (e.g, depressed father and high-risk son dyads).
