Alcohol use disorder-associated DNA methylation differences in nucleus accumbens and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex

ABSTRACT: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) has a profound public health impact and understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the development and progression of AUD remain limited. Many genetic risk loci have been identified for AUD or alcohol consumption, though the neurobiological mechanisms underlying these loci remain largely unknown. DNA methylation (DNAm) differences between individuals with and without AUD can provide insight into the mechanisms that predispose to AUD and consequences of AUD itself. Here, we provide Illumina HumanMethylation EPIC array data generated in nucleus accumbens and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, both addiction relevant brain tissues, from 119 decedents of European ancestry: 61 controls and 58 cases. From these data we have conducted an epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) and identified several CpG associations with AUD. A subset of the identified CpGs map to genes that were previoulsy identified as associated with substance use behaviors in genetic studies, but the other CpGs map to genes previoulsy unassociated with substance use behaviors and are novel.

Presynaptic proteins in the orbitofrontal cortex predict Alcohol Use Disorder

Project description:Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a life-threatening disease characterized by compulsive drinking, cognitive deficits, and social impairment that continue despite negative consequences, which are driven by dysfunction of cortical areas, such as the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), that normally balances decisions related to reward and risk. In this study, proteomics and machine learning analysis of post-mortem OFC brain samples collected from individuals with AUD revealed dysregulation of presynaptic (e.g., AP2A1) and mitochondrial proteins that predicted the occurrence and severity of AUD. Alcohol-sensitive OFC proteins also mapped to abnormal social behaviors and interactions. Validation using reverse genetics, we found that prefrontal Ap2a1 regulates alcohol drinking in genetically diverse mouse strains. Furthermore, we demonstrated sexual dimorphism in human OFC proteins that regulate extracellular matrix structure and signaling. Together, these findings highlight the impact of excessive alcohol consumption on the human OFC proteome and identify important cross-species cortical mechanisms underlying AUD.

Profiling Methylomic Alterations in Postmortem Prefrontal Cortex Tissues of Individuals with Alcohol Use Disorders

Project description:Analysis of methylomic alternations related with alcohol use disorders (AUD). The hypothesis is that chronic alcohol consumption might alter genome-wide DNA methylation patterns. The results suggest that differential DNA methylation might be invovled in neuradaptations to alcohol. Genomic DNA was extraced from postmortem prefrontal cortex tissues of 23 AUD cases and 23 matched controls. Both AUD cases and matched controls are assessed with DSM-IV

Genome-wide methylation in alcohol use disorder subjects: implications for an epigenetic regulation of the cortico-limbic glucocorticoid receptors (NR3C1)

Project description:Environmental factors, including substance abuse and stress, cause long-lasting changes in the regulation of gene expression in the brain via epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation. We examined genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in the prefrontal cortex (PFC, BA10) of 25 pairs of control and individuals with AUD, using the Infinium® MethylationEPICBeadChip. We identified 5,254 differentially methylated CpGs (pnominal<0.005). Bioinformatic analyses highlighted biological processes containing genes related to stress adaptation, including the glucocorticoid receptor (encoded by NR3C1). Considering that alcohol is a stressor, we focused our attention on differentially methylated regions of the NR3C1 gene and validated the differential methylation of several genes in the NR3C1 network. We observed that chronic alcohol drinking results in a significant increased methylation of the NR3C1 exon variant 1H, with a particular increase in the levels of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine over 5-methylcytosine. These changes in DNA methylation were associated with reduced NR3C1 mRNA and protein levels in PFC as well as other cortico-limbic regions of AUD subjects when compared to controls. Furthermore, we show that the expression of several stress-responsive genes (e.g., CRF, POMC, FKBP5) is altered in the PFC of AUD subjects. These stress-response genes were also changed in the hippocampus, a region that is highly susceptible to stress. These data suggest that alcohol-dependent aberrant DNA methylation of NR3C1 and consequent changes in other stress-related genes might be fundamental in the pathophysiology of AUD and lay the groundwork for treatments targeting the epigenetic mechanisms regulating NR3C1 in AUD.

Profiling of mRNA transcriptomic changes using RNA-seq in postmortem putamen of subjects with alcohol use disorder

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study to examine mRNA transcriptomic changes in reward-related brain regions of subjects with alcohol use disorder. Methods: Total RNAs were extracted from postmortem putamen of 12 AUD and 12 control subjects. rRNA depletion RNA sequencing was performed and the sequence reads were processed using the bulk RNA-seq processing pipeline Pipeliner workflow (Federico et al. Front Genet 2019; 10, 614). AUD-associated mRNA transcriptomic changes were analyzed by the Limma-Voom method. Results: Differentially expressed mRNAs (absolute FC>2.0 & P<0.05) were identified in postmortem putamen of subjects with alcohol use disorder (AUD). Chronic alcohol consumption may alter mRNA transcriptome profiles in reward-related brain regions, resulting in alcohol-induced neuroadaptations.
