Project description:We examined the genetic profile of postmortem brain (hippocampal) samples; 15 brains from patients diagnosed with MDD were matched to brains from healthy subjects based on gender, race and age. Gene expression profiles in the dentate gyrus and CA1 subregions of the hippocampus were assessed by cDNA hybridization to 48K human HEEBO whole genome microarrays (Microarray, Inc). Two-group comparison: MDD (13 male, 8 female) vs. Control (11 male, 7 female). Dentate Gyrus (DG): 15 pairs of samples (1 array per pair); CA1: 15 pairs of samples (1 array per pair). Biological replicates. We can not provide a list of normalized values for each individual hybridization (per chip), but rather have a list of average expression values for all hybridizations used in the experiment (n=15).

Project description:Overall risk for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is determined by complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors that influence epigenetic regulation of neuroplasticity and stress pathways1,2. These mechanisms are specific to the distinct regulatory context within regionally-defined brain cell-types3,4. Here, we employed genome-wide chromatin accessibility profiling of neuronal vs. non-neuronal cells in orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) to capture regulatory signatures of MDD. We mapped genetic risk for MDD to active promoters of non-neuronal cell-types in OFC and identified MDD-specific open chromatin regions, which were differentially accessible exclusively in non-neuronal cells. Characterization of these loci revealed a key role for astrocyte dysfunction, and implicated the chromatin remodeling protein ZBTB7A, which coordinates wide-ranging cellular activation programs, including NF-kB inflammatory transcription5. In mice, astrocyte-specific knockdown of Zbtb7a reversed chromatin remodeling, reactive astrocyte transcription, and behavioral deficits associated with chronic stress. Conversely, ZBTB7A overexpression in OFC astrocytes induced stress-related behavioral deficits, promoted widespread inflammatory gene expression, and drove pathophysiological OFC neuronal hyperactivity in response to a mild subthreshold stressor. Our data highlight a critical role for OFC astrocytes in the bidirectional regulation of stress vulnerability and pinpoint ZBTB7A as a key factor mediating maladaptive astrocyte plasticity and OFC neuronal hyperexcitability in MDD.

Project description:Background: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a moderately heritable disorder with a high lifetime prevalence. At present, laboratory blood tests to support MDD diagnosis are not available. Methods: We used a classifier approach on blood gene expression profiles of a unique set of non-medicated subjects (MDD patients and controls) to select genes of which expression is predictive for disease status. To reveal blood gene expression changes related to MDD disease, we applied a powerful ex vivo stimulus to the blood, i.e. incubation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 10 ng/ml blood). Results: Based on LPS-stimulated blood gene expression using whole-genome microarrays in 42 subjects (primary cohort; 21 MDD patients (mean age 42.3 years), 21 healthy controls (mean age 41.9 years)), we identified a set of genes (CAPRIN1, CLEC4A, KRT23, MLC1, PLSCR1, PROK2, ZBTB16) that serves as a molecular signature of MDD. These findings were validated for the primary cohort using an independent quantitative PCR method (P = 0.007). The difference between depressive patients and controls was confirmed (P = 0.019) in a replication cohort of 13 patients with MDD (mean age 42.8 years) and 14 controls (mean age 45.6 years). The MDD-signature score comprised of expression levels of 7 genes could discriminate depressive patients from controls with sensitivity of 76.9% and specificity of 71.8%. Conclusions: We show for the first time that molecular analysis of stimulated blood cells can be used as an endophenotype for MDD diagnosis, which is a milestone in establishing biomarkers for neuropsychiatric disorders with moderate heritability in general. Our results may provide a new entry point for following and predicting treatment outcome, as well as prediction of severity and recurrence of MDD. In total, 33 MDD patients and 34 healthy controls were analyzed using basal gene expression in whole blood, and gene expression from whole blood that was stimulated with LPS for 5-6 h, using microarrays. Patients were arbitrarily selected from all patients to serve as primary cohort (nMDD = 21 (MDD01-MDD21); nControls = 21 (Con01-Con21)), or replication cohort (nMDD = 12 (MDD22-MDD35); nControls = 13 (Con22-Con37)) using microarrays.

Project description:Purpose There are great demands for identifying markers of major depressive disorder (MDD), which is a common mental illness with a prevalence of approximately 6%. Finding potential markers to aid MDD diagnosis is in high demand. Experimental design In this study, combination of the salt-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) pretreatment method and a nontargeted peptidomics approach based on nano-LC-Orbitrap/MS is primarily employed to discover the candidate peptide biomarkers from the plasma of 238 subjects. Results A large number of peptides are enriched and identified from the plasma samples, of which 42 peptides show significant differences between MDD patients and controls by univariate statistical analysis. A diagnostic model combined four peptide markers (P1, P9, P17, P29) is established by binary logistic regression analysis, yielding an overall prediction accuracy of 91.7% and 82.2% in the discovery and validation sets, respectively. Conclusions and clinical relevance In conclusion, the good performance of diagnostic model in both discovery and validation sets demonstrates the robustness of peptide markers panel. It is very valuable for quantification the absolute content of four peptides and further verification.

Project description:Major depressive disorder (MDD) exhibits numerous clinical, epidemiological, and molecular features that are consistent with partially inherited and partially acquired epigenetic misregulation. We performed microarray based DNA modification study of MDD, utilizing affected and unaffected samples from white blood cells from monozygotic twins discordant for MDD, post-mortem prefrontal cortex tissues, and sperm samples. We performed DNA methylome analysis on white blood cells from monozygotic twins discordant for depression (n=200), pre-frontal cortex (n=71), and germline samples (n=33) from affected individuals and controls (total n=304). DNA samples were enriched for unmodified fraction of the genome using DNA-modification sensitive restriction enzyme digestion followed by adaptor-mediated PCR. The enriched fractions were labelled with a fluorescent dye (Cy5) and hybridized onto the array with a common reference pool (Cy3) generated from individuals unrelated to this study.

Project description:Search for the biomarkers of major depressive disorder (MDD) has facilitated from the genes expressed in the patientâs blood cells. Because the severity of depressive symptoms and characteristics in patients with MDD are differed by the age at onset of first depressive episode, the potential transcriptomic markers in blood cells may also be different by the age at onset of MDD. In this study, we searched the transcriptomic markers of late-onset (onset ages ⥠50 years) MDD (LOD) from the expressed genes in blood cells, and identified state-dependent biomarkers in the patients. We assessed the expressed genes in blood cells by the microarray and found that the expression levels of 3,066 probes were state-dependently changed in the blood cells of patients with LOD. Elderly (age â¥50 years) outpatients and inpatients with MDD corresponding to a DSM-IV diagnosis of the melancholy type of MDD episodes were studied. The depressive state was measured using the Structured Interview Guide for the Hamilton Depression (SIGH-D) rating scale. Syndromal remission was defined as a stage in which a participant did not meet the diagnosis of a MINI major depressive episode for a period of 2 consecutive months and had a SIGH-D score of less than 8. Twelve healthy individuals were also recruited. Blood was obtained from the participants and analyzed using an Agilent SurePrint G3 Human GE 8Ã60K v2 Microarray (Design ID: 039494).
