Multi-influential interactions controls behaviour and cognition through a limited number of pathways in Down syndrome mouse models (Affymetrix reanalysis)


ABSTRACT: Down syndrome (DS) is the most common genetic form of intellectual disability with additional clinical features, caused by the presence of an additional copy of human chromosome 21 (Hsa21). A few number of patients with DS features, carry partial duplication of Hsa21 and their study provided novel insights into genotype–phenotype correlations. Despite the progress of genome analysis, the rareness of patients with partial duplication, and the human genetic heterogeneity, makes difficult to achieve a more detailed phenotypic map at present. As a complementary approach, we screened the in vivo DS mouse library with highly standardized behavioural tests, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and digged into hippocampal gene expression to go further in dissecting the genotype–phenotype correlations and in deciphering misregulated genes, functional pathways and biological cascades in DS models. Altogether this approach bring novel insights into the field. First, we unravelled the complexity of the genetic interactions between different regions of the chromosome 21 and how they play an important role in modulating the outcome of the behavioural and molecular phenotypes. Then, in depth analysis of misregulated expressed genes involved in synaptic dysfunction highlitghed six biological cascades centered around DYRK1A, GSK3beta, NPY, RHOA, NPAS4 and the SNARE complex. Finally, we provide a novel vision of the existing altered gene-gene crosstalk and molecular mechanisms that could be at play for both the DS clinical features and the rescue mechanisms by targeting specific hubs or well connected nodes that may be central to advance in our understanding of DS and therapies development.
