The genetic factors predisposing to essential tremor (ET), of one of the most common movement disorders, remains largely unknown. While current studies have examined the contribution of both common and rare genetic variants, very few have investigated the ET transcriptome. To understand pathways and genes relevant to ET, we used an RNA sequencing approach to interrogate the transcriptome of two cerebellar regions, the dentate nucleus and cerebellar cortex, in 16 cases and 16 age- and sex-matched controls. Additionally, a phenome-wide association study (pheWAS) of the dysregulated genes was conducted, and a genome-wide gene association study (GWGAS) was done to identify pathways overlapping with the transcriptomic data. We identified several novel dysregulated genes including CACNA1A, a calcium voltage-gated channel implicated in ataxia. Furthermore, several pathways including axon guidance, olfactory loss, and calcium channel activity were significantly enriched. A subsequent examination of the ET GWGAS data (N=7,154) also flagged genes involved in calcium ion-regulated exocytosis of neurotransmitters to be significantly enriched. Interestingly, the pheWAS identified that the dysregulated gene, SHF, is associated with a blood pressure medication (P=9.3E-08), which is commonly used to reduce tremor in ET patients. Lastly, it is also notable that the dentate nucleus and cerebellar cortex have different transcriptomes, suggesting that different regions of the cerebellum have spatially different transcriptomes.
