A transcriptomic approach for the evaluation of risk biomarkers in adolescents with a history of a traumatic childhood

ABSTRACT: The experience of childhood maltreatment (CM) is highly associated with the occurrence of psychiatric disorders. The impact of CM on neurodevelopmental trajectories is not fully elucidated. Here, we aim to investigate, the impact of different types of CM on the transcriptome expressed by peripheral blood mononuclear cells in adolescence. Adolescents who experienced different types of CM or normal environment were exposed to a comprehensive screening aimed to evaluate psychological and behavioural parameters. Among them, we selected four subpopulations, that experienced respectively Abuse (A), Neglect (N), Abuse and neglect (AN), normal childhood (C). To identify biological markers of their respective experience, mRNA-Seq analysis was performed in PBMC extracted from their blood sampling.

Conserved epigenetic sensitivity to early life experience in the rat and human hippocampus

Project description:Early life experience is associated with long-term effects on behavior and epigenetic programming of the NR3C1 (glucocorticoid receptor) gene in the hippocampus of both rats and humans. However, it is unlikely that such effects completely capture the evolutionarily conserved epigenetic mechanisms of early adaptation to environment. Here we present DNA methylation profiles spanning 6.5 million base pairs centered at the NR3C1 gene in the hippocampus of humans who experienced abuse as children and nonabused controls. Hippocampal samples were obtained from the Quebec Suicide Brain Bank and included 10 suicide subjects with histories of severe childhood abuse and 9 controls with validated negative histories of childhood abuse who did not differ in postmortem interval, sex, age at death, or brain pH (all P > 0.05). Using custom-designed microarrays with probes tiling the 6.5 million base pair region of human chromosome 5 centered at the NR3C1 gene at 100 bp spacing, we obtained DNA methylation profiles by MeDIP-chip. Replicates were performed.

Cell type specific transcriptomic alterations in prefrontal deep-layer pyramidal neurons in individuals with a history of childhood abuse

Project description:Childhood abuse significantly increases the lifetime risk of negative mental health outcomes, including psychiatric disorders, such as depression and suicide. While clinical and epidemiological associations are well characterized, the molecular mechanisms through which adverse experiences in early life influence mental health outcomes over the lifespan remain unclear. In this study, we employed laser capture microdissection followed by RNA sequencing (LCM-seq) to investigate transcriptomic alterations to prefrontal deep-layer pyramidal neurons in individuals with a history of childhood abuse (N=24) in comparison to controls (N = 21). We first showed that LCM-seqproduced high-quality transcriptomic data that was strongly enriched for our cell type of interest (95.8% contribution). Differential expression analysis revealed119 genes that were altered between cases versus controls. Using weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) we next identified a network of downregulated genes, in individuals with a history of childhood abuse (r = -0.30, p = 0.04), that was enriched in pathways related to nervous system development and plasticity. The eigengene of this network was significantly correlated (r(23) = 0.490, p = 0.021) with average cell body volume of deep-layer pyramidal neurons. Of the 1042 mRNA genes within this network, 81 were differentially expressed between cases and controls. Using high-throughput qPCR, and comparing with an additional group of depressed subjects who died by suicide without a history of childhood abuse (N = 29), we found 7 genes whose expression levels were significantly (p < 0.05) predicted by a history of childhood abuse but not major depressive disorder and suicide.Our study, therefore, advances our understanding of the long term impact of childhood abuse and points to some of the molecular pathways that may underly previously observed alterations innervous system development and plasticity.

Harsh Parenting Predicts Novel HPA Receptor Gene Methylation and NR3C1 Methylation Predicts Cortisol Daily Slope in Middle Childhood

Project description:Adverse experiences in childhood are associated with altered hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis function and negative health outcomes throughout life. It is now commonly accepted that abuse and neglect can alter epigenetic regulation of HPA genes. Accumulated evidence suggests harsh parenting practices such as spanking are also strong predictors of negative health outcomes. We predicted harsh parenting at 2.5 years old would predict HPA gene DNA methylation similarly to abuse and neglect, and cortisol output at 8.5 years old. Saliva samples were collected three times a day across three days to estimate cortisol diurnal slopes. Methylation was quantified using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array BeadChip (850K) with DNA collected from buccal cells. We used principal components analysis to compute a summary statistic for CpG sites across candidate genes. The first and second components were used as outcome variables in mixed linear regression analyses with harsh parenting as a predictor variable. We found harsh parenting significantly predicted methylation of several HPA axis genes, including novel gene associations with AVPRB1, CRHR1, CRHR2, and MC2R (FDR corrected p < 0.05). Further, we found NR3C1 methylation predicted a steeper diurnal cortisol slope. Our results extend the current literature by demonstrating harsh parenting may influence DNA methylation similarly to more extreme early life experiences such as abuse and neglect. Further, we show NR3C1 methylation is associated with diurnal HPA function. Elucidating the molecular consequences of harsh parenting on health can inform best parenting practices and provide potential treatment targets for common complex disorders.

Leukocyte gene expression variation as a function of psychological well-being II

Project description:Individual differences in basal leukocyte gene expression profiles as a function of hedonic and eudaimonic well-being, and psychological and social sub-dimensions of eudaimonic well-being. Gene expression profiling was carried out on peripheral blood mononuclear cell RNA samples collected from 122 healthy adults measured for hedonic and eudaimonic dimensions of well-being using the Short Flourishing Scale (Keyes, C (2014). The Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) for adults). Higher values of the hedonic well-being scale indicate greater levels of positive affect, higher values of eudaimonic well-being scale indicate greater experience of purpose and meaning in life, higher values of social well-being scale indicate greater experience of social well-being in life, higher values of psychological well-being scale indicate greater experience of psychological well-being in life, greater TotalMHCSF scores indicate greater experience of all forms of well-being measured by the MHC-SF, the FlourishGroup indicates idividuals showing flourishing mental health as defined by the MHC-SF scoring instructions referenced above, greater BrownPsychological scores indicate greater experience of psychological well-being as measured by the MHC-SF with an alternative scoring, and greater BrownSocial scores indicate greater experience of social well-being as measured by the MHC-SF with an alternative scoring.

Characterization of molecular signature in mice that experienced an hostile social environment during cocaine abstinence

Project description:Childhood maltreatment is associated with increased severity of substance use disorder and frequency of relapse to drug use following abstinence. However, the molecular and neurobiological substrates engaged during early traumatic events and mediating the relapse risk are poorly understood. Here, we show that the exposure to an adverse/hostile social experience in juvenile mice (social stressed mice, SS) influences the propensity to reinstate cocaine seeking after withdrawal periods. This effect is associated with an increased blood coagulation and a pauperization of brain vasculature. Moreover, a treatment with an anticoagulant agent during withdrawal abolishes the susceptibility to reinstate cocaine seeking in SS mice. These findings for the first time propose a molecular mechanism contributing to the increased susceptibility to relapse into cocaine abuse observed in individuals who had experienced childhood maltreatment. To analyze global gene expression differences between mice experiencing an hostile/adverse social environment during the third postnatal week and juvenile social isolated (SI) mice during cocaine abstinence. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells were measured with Agilent mouse gene expression microarray during cocaine abstince after undergoing cocaine-seeking behavior studies by conditioned place preference test, extinction and withdrawal. Blood was collected 24 hours after the extinction test and genome-wide

Youth Drug Abuse, ADHD and Related Disorders

Project description:<p>There are two major aims with this study.<br/> 1. To describe the developmental trajectory of (a) a community-based sample of youth with a childhood diagnosis of ADHD that has been prospectively followed from childhood into adulthood (approximately a 17-year span), and (b) a clinical sample of youth that received drug abuse treatment during adolescence (variable time span). <br/> 2. To examine the association of phenotypes of drug involvement severity and risk alleles that prior research has suggested to be associated with drug abuse and externalizing disorders. The sample (N=607) consists of three groups based on youth status: Treatment, High Risk, and Control. These groups are defined as follows: Treatment - attended treatment or a brief intervention for a substance use disorder during adolescence (n=402); High Risk - elevated scores on standardized measures of disruptive behaviors during childhood based on teacher and parent reports (n=142); Control - normative scores during childhood on standardized measures of disruptive behaviors based on teacher and parent reports, and absent of any DSM-based behavioral/mental disorder when assessed during childhood based on parent report (n=66). Among the 610 participants who provided DNA, 607 are usable samples.</p>

Gene expression in the nucleus accumbens shell of adult rats of both sexes after chronic exposure to delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol during adolescence

Project description:Canabinoid exposure during adolescence alters the rewarding properties of drugs of abuse by mechanisms that are not fully understood. The nucleus accumbens is a key node of the circuit mediating the rewarding effects of most drugs. Here, we present data on the differential gene expression in the nucleus accumbens shell in male and female Wistar rats (postnatal day 90) after exposure to THC (3 mg/kg i.p.) or vehicle (ethanol:cremophor:saline; 1:1:18; 2 mL/kg i.p.) during adolescence (postnatal day 28 to postnatal day 44; injections on alternate days). There were 96 DEGs in THC-males compared to VEH-males and 87 DEGs in the females’ comparison. Only nine of these DEGs were present in both the THC vs. VEH comparison in both sexes. Our results suggest that THC exposure during adolescence affects several families of genes that have important functions for brain development, behavior and synaptic plasticity and could explain, at least in part, the complex behavioral phenotype observed in adult individuals with exposure to cannabinoids during adolescence.
