Integrated multi-omics analysis identifies epigenetic alteration related to neurodegeneration development in post-traumatic stress disorder patients.
Psychiatric Genetics 2023 May 9
INTRODUCTION: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), is associated with an elevated risk of neurodegenerative disorders, but the molecular mechanism was not wholly identified. Aberrant methylation status and miRNA expression pattern have been identified to be associated with PTSD, but their complex regulatory networks remain largely unexplored.
METHODS: The purpose of this study was to identify the key genes/pathways related to neurodegenerative disorder development in PTSD by evaluating epigenetic regulatory signature (DNA methylation and miRNA) using an integrative bioinformatic analysis. We integrated DNA expression array data with miRNA and DNA methylation array data - obtained from the GEO database- to evaluate the epigenetic regulatory mechanisms.
RESULTS: Our results indicated that target genes of dysregulated miRNAs were significantly related to several neurodegenerative diseases. Several dysregulated genes in the neurodegeneration pathways interacted with some members of the miR-17 and miR-15/107 families. Our analysis indicated that APP/CaN/NFATs signaling pathway was dysregulated in the peripheral blood samples of PTSD. Besides, the DNMT3a and KMT2D genes, as the encoding DNA and histone methyltransferase enzymes, were upregulated, and DNA methylation and miRNA regulators were proposed as critical molecular mechanisms. Our study found dysregulation of circadian rhythm as the CLOCK gene was upregulated and hypomethylated at TSS1500 CpGs S_shores and was also a target of several dysregulated miRNAs.
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, we found evidence of a negative feedback loop between stress oxidative, circadian rhythm dysregulation, miR-17 and miR-15/107 families, some essential genes involved in neuronal and brain cell health, and KMT2D/DNMT3a in the peripheral blood samples of PTSD.
