Altered DNA methylation of CYP2E1 gene in schizophrenia patients with tardive dyskinesia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

About 20-30% of patients with schizophrenia develop tardive dyskinesia (TD). Oxidative stress is one potential causes of TD. CYP2E1 is considered as an oxidative stress-related gene, however, no study has been reported on the DNA methylation levels of the CYP2E1 in schizophrenia or TD.

Methods

A total of 35 schizophrenia patients with TD, 35 schizophrenia patients without TD (NTD), and 35 health controls (HCs) were collected in Beijing, China. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples. The promoter methylation levels of CYP2E1 were detected using pyrosequencing. The generalized linear model (GLM) was used to examine the methylation levels of three CpG sites among three diagnostic groups (TD vs. NTD vs. HC).

Results

The average methylation levels were 8.8 ± 10.0, 14.5 ± 11.9 and 15.1 ± 11.3 in TD, NTD and HC groups, respectively. The F-test in GLM revealed overall differences in the average of methylation levels of three CpG sites among three diagnostic groups (p = 0.0227) and in the third CpG site (p = 0.0026). Furthermore, the TD group had lower average methylation levels than HC and NTD groups (p = 0.0115 and 0.0268, respectively). Specifically, TD group showed lower methylation levels in the third CpG site than HC and NTD groups (p = 0.0012 and 0.0072, respectively). Additionally, associations of the methylation levels with clinical features in the TD group were observed using Spearman correlation analysis.

Conclusion

This study provides the first evidence of DNA methylation levels in the promoter of CYP2E1 gene associated with schizophrenia and TD. The abnormal DNA methylation might serve as a potential mechanism for TD.

Project description:ObjectiveWe compared the response to antipsychotic treatment between patients with and without tardive dyskinesia (TD) and examined the course of TD.MethodThis analysis compared 200 patients with DSM-IV-defined schizophrenia and TD and 997 patients without TD, all of whom were randomly assigned to receive one of 4 second-generation antipsychotics. The primary clinical outcome measure was time to all-cause treatment discontinuation, and the primary measure for evaluating the course of TD was change from baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) score. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to compare treatment discontinuation between groups. Changes in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and neurocognitive scores were compared using mixed models and analysis of variance. Treatment differences between drugs in AIMS scores and all-cause discontinuation were examined for those with TD at baseline. Percentages of patients meeting criteria for TD postbaseline or showing changes in AIMS scores were evaluated with χ(2) tests. Data were collected from January 2001 to December 2004.ResultsTime to treatment discontinuation for any cause was not significantly different between the TD and non-TD groups (χ(2)(1) = 0.11, P = .743). Changes in PANSS scores were not significantly different (F(1,974) = 0.82, P = .366), but patients with TD showed less improvement in neurocognitive scores (F(1,359) = 6.53, P = .011). Among patients with TD, there were no significant differences between drugs in the decline in AIMS scores (F(3,151) = 0.32, P = .811); 55% met criteria for TD at 2 consecutive visits postbaseline, 76% met criteria for TD at some or all postbaseline visits, 24% did not meet criteria for TD at any subsequent visit, 32% showed a ≥ 50% decrease in AIMS score, and 7% showed a ≥ 50% increase in AIMS score.ConclusionsSchizophrenia patients with and without TD were similar in time to discontinuation of treatment for any cause and improvement in psychopathology, but differed in neurocognitive response. There were no significant differences between treatments in the course of TD, with most patients showing either persistence of or fluctuation in observable symptoms.Trial registrationclinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT00014001.

Project description:BackgroundTardive dyskinesia (TD) is a common side effect of antipsychotic treatment. This movement disorder consists of orofacial and limb-truncal components. The present study is aimed at investigating the role of serotonin receptors (HTR) in modulating tardive dyskinesia by genotyping patients with schizophrenia.MethodsA set of 29 SNPs of genes of serotonin receptors HTR1A, HTR1B, HTR2A, HTR2C, HTR3A, HTR3B, and HTR6 was studied in a population of 449 Caucasians (226 females and 223 males) with verified clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia (according to ICD-10: F20). Five SNPs were excluded because of low minor allele frequency or for not passing the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test. Affinity of antipsychotics to 5-HT2 receptors was defined according to previous publications. Genotyping was carried out with SEQUENOM Mass Array Analyzer 4.ResultsStatistically significant associations of rs1928040 of HTR2A gene in groups of patients with orofacial type of TD and total diagnosis of TD was found for alleles, and a statistical trend for genotypes. Moreover, statistically significant associations were discovered in the female group for rs1801412 of HTR2C for alleles and genotypes. Excluding patients who used HTR2A, respectively, HTR2C antagonists changed little to the associations of HTR2A polymorphisms, but caused a major change of the magnitude of the association of HTR2C variants. Due to the low patient numbers, these sub-analyses did not have significant results.ConclusionWe found significant associations in rs1928040 of HTR2A and for rs1801412 of X-bound HTR2C in female patients. The associations were particularly related to the orofacial type of TD. Excluding patients using relevant antagonists particularly affected rs1801412, but not rs1928040-related associations. This suggest that rs1801412 is directly or indirectly linked to the functioning of HTR2C. Further study of variants of the HTR2C gene in a larger group of male patients who were not using HTR2C antagonists is necessary in order to verify a possible functional role of this receptor.
