Differentially methylated regions in patients with rheumatic heart disease and secondary pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine 2017 August
The aim of the present study was to identify differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in patients with rheumatic heart disease and secondary pulmonary arterial hypertension (RHD-PAH). A genome-wide DNA methylation assay was performed between 6 patients with RHD-PAH and 6 healthy controls using an Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip kit. The Limma software package was subsequently used to identify significant DMRs. A total of 40 hypome-thylated and 64 hypermethylated CpG sites were identified between the RHD-PAH group and the control group. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes term and signaling pathway enrichment analyses revealed that the DMRs, mapped to the genes including protein kinase C α, protein kinase AMP-activated non-catalytic subunit γ2, sprouty related EVH1 domain containing 2 and LIF interleukin 6 family cytokine, were significantly enriched in the negative regulation of protein kinase/transferase activity and the positive regulation of protein amino acid phosphorylation/phosphate metabolic process. The identified DMRs may provide novel insights into the pathogenesis of RHD-PAH.
