Abstract
Preterm birth affects 11% of births globally; 35% of infants develop long-term neurocognitive problems, and prematurity leads to the loss of 75 million disability adjusted life years per annum worldwide. Imaging studies have shown that these infants have extensive alterations in brain development, but little is known about the molecular or cellular mechanisms involved. This imaging genetics study found a strong association between abnormal cerebral connectivity and variability in the PPARG gene, implicating PPARG signaling in abnormal white-matter development in preterm infants and suggesting a tractable new target for therapeutic research.
