[PMID: 39147160 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.08.065] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 08/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rs768705 (TMEM161B) is one of the identified single nucleotide polymorphisms related to major depressive disorder (MDD). Paranoid personality traits are independently associated with the risk of MDD. This study aimed to investigate the interaction effect between rs768705 (TMEM161B) and paranoid personality traits on the new-onset risk of MDD in Chinese freshmen. METHODS A longitudinal study was conducted among 7642 Chinese freshmen without lifetime MDD at baseline in 2018. 158 new-onset MDD cases were ascertained in 2019. DNA samples were extracted to detect the genotype of rs768705. The diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders-IV criteria were used to determine MDD and personality disorder traits. Multiplicative interaction was assessed by logistic regression models. Tomas Andersson's method for calculating biological interactions was used to estimate the additive interaction. RESULTS Rs768705(AG) (OR = 1.88, 95 % CI: 1.24-2.83) and paranoid personality traits (OR = 3.68, 95 % CI: 2.57-5.26) were significantly associated with the risk of MDD. The multiplicative interaction model with the product term of rs768705 and paranoid personality trait traits had a significant interaction effect (OR = 4.20, 95 % CI:1.62-10.91). There was also a significant additive interaction effect (RR = 7.08, 95 % CI:4.31-11.65) for the incidence of MDD. Seventy seven percent patients among new MDD cases were attributed to the additive interaction effect between rs768705 and paranoid personality traits. CONCLUSIONS Rs768705 (AG) may interact with paranoid personality traits to increase the incidence of MDD among Chinese college students. Schools and psychosocial health organizations should pay more attention to individuals with paranoid personality traits for MDD intervention and prevention.

Genome-wide analysis of spina bifida risk variants in a case-control study from Bangladesh. Birth Defects Res 2024; 116:e2331. [PMID: 38526198 PMCID: PMC10963057 DOI: 10.1002/bdr2.2331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 03/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Human studies of genetic risk factors for neural tube defects, severe birth defects associated with long-term health consequences in surviving children, have predominantly been restricted to a subset of candidate genes in specific biological pathways including folate metabolism. METHODS In this study, we investigated the association of genetic variants spanning the genome with risk of spina bifida (i.e., myelomeningocele and meningocele) in a subset of families enrolled from December 2016 through December 2022 in a case-control study in Bangladesh, a population often underrepresented in genetic studies. Saliva DNA samples were analyzed using the Illumina Global Screening Array. We performed genetic association analyses to compare allele frequencies between 112 case and 121 control children, 272 mothers, and 128 trios. RESULTS In the transmission disequilibrium test analyses with trios only, we identified three novel exonic spina bifida risk loci, including rs140199800 (SULT1C2, p = 1.9 × 10-7), rs45580033 (ASB2, p = 4.2 × 10-10), and rs75426652 (LHPP, p = 7.2 × 10-14), after adjusting for multiple hypothesis testing. Association analyses comparing cases and controls, as well as models that included their mothers, did not identify genome-wide significant variants. CONCLUSIONS This study identified three novel single nucleotide polymorphisms involved in biological pathways not previously associated with neural tube defects. The study warrants replication in larger groups to validate findings and to inform targeted prevention strategies.

Abstract
Introduction First episode and drug naive schizophrenia (SZ) patients comorbid with major depressive episode and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) comorbid with major depressive disorder (MDD) are common in clinical practice, overlapping symptomatology during first presentation of MDD, SZ and GAD challenged the diagnostic process. Materials and Methods This study aimed to investigate the differentiation value of peripheral microRNA-26b expression in 52 patients of MDD, SZ, and GAD, respectively, and 52 controls. Quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to further verify aberrant miRNAs of previous identified in MDD and investigate expression level of these peripheral miRNAs in SZ and GAD. Results The expression levels of miR-26b and miR-4743 were significantly upregulated and of miR-4498, miR-4485, and miR-1972 had no significant difference. There were no significant differences of expression levels of miR-26b, miR-4498, miR-4485, and miR-1972 except miR-4743 between SZ patients and control group and of miR-26b, miR-1972, miR-4498, and miR-4485 between GAD group and the controls. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of miR-26b in MDD patients showed that its sensitivity and specificity for diagnosis were 0.540 and 0.830, respectively, with the area under curve (AUC) being 0.728; the ROC of miR-26b for SZ and MDD differentiation showed that its sensitivity and specificity were 0.580 and 0.710, respectively, with AUC being 0.631; the ROC of miR-26b for GAD and MDD differentiation suggested that sensitivity and specificity were 0.560 and 0.750, respectively, with AUC being 0.637. Conclusion MiR-26b might have potential value of differentiation biomarker for MDD, SZ, and GAD.

SORL1 Polymorphisms in Mexican Patients with Alzheimer’s Disease. Genes (Basel) 2022; 13:genes13040587. [PMID: 35456392 PMCID: PMC9026506 DOI: 10.3390/genes13040587] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Revised: 03/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study evaluated the risk effect of 12 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in the SORL1 gene in the Mexican population using Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease (LOAD) and control subjects. Considering APOE as the strongest genetic risk factor for LOAD, we conducted interaction analyses between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the APOE genotype. Methods: Patients were interviewed during their scheduled visits at neurologic and geriatric clinics from different institutions. The LOAD diagnosis included neurological, geriatric, and psychiatric examinations, as well as the medical history and neuroimaging. Polymorphisms in SORL1 were genotyped by real-time PCR in 156 subjects with LOAD and 221 controls. APOE genotype was determined in each study subject. Allelic, genotypic, and haplotypic frequencies were analyzed; an ancestry analysis was also performed. Results: The A/A genotype in rs1784933 might be associated with an increased LOAD risk. Two blocks with high degree linkage disequilibrium (LD) were identified. The first block composed by the genetic variants rs668387, rs689021 and rs641120 showed a positive interaction (mainly the rs689021) with rs1784933 polymorphism. Moreover, we found a significant association between the APOE ε4 allele carriers and the variant rs2070045 located in the second LD block. Conclusion: The rs1784933 polymorphism is associated with LOAD in Mexican patients. In addition, the presence of APOE ε4 allele and SORL1 variants could represent a genetic interaction effect that favors LOAD risk in the Mexican population. SNPs have been proposed as genetic markers associated with the development of LOAD that can support the clinical diagnosis. Future molecular studies could help understand sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) among the Mexican population, where currently there is a sub-estimate number in terms of disease frequency and incidence.
