MicroRNA biomarkers in blood for Autism spectrum disorder

ABSTRACT: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by social communication deficits and repetitive behaviors. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been recently recognized as potential biomarkers of ASD as they are dysregulated in various tissues of individuals with ASD. However, it remains unclear whether miRNA expression is altered in individuals with high-functioning ASD. Here, we investigated the miRNA expression profile in peripheral blood from adults with high-functioning ASD, and age and gender-matched healthy controls. Our findings may provide insights regarding the molecular clues for recognizing high-functioning ASD.

RNA-seq of 36 individuals with autism spectrum disorder

Project description:To assess the clinical impact of splice-altering noncoding mutations in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), we used a deep learning framework (SpliceAI) to predict the splice-altering potential of de novo mutations in 3,953 individuals with ASD from the Simons Simplex Collection. To validate these predictions, we selected 36 individuals that harbored predicted de-novo cryptic splice mutations; each individual represented the only case of autism within their immediate family. We obtained peripheral blood-derived lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) and performed high-depth mRNA sequencing (approximately 350 million 150 bp single-end reads per sample). We used OLego to align the reads against a reference created from hg19 by substituting de novo variants of each individual with the corresponding alternate allele.

Structural Variation of Chromosomes in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Project description:Chromosomal abnormalities have been identified in some individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but their full etiologic role is unknown. Submicroscopic copy number variation (CNV) represents a considerable source of genetic variation in the human genome that contributes to phenotypic differences and disease susceptibility. To explore the contribution CNV imbalances in ASD, we genotyped unrelated ASD index cases using the Affymetrix GeneChip® 500K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping array.

Transcriptome of iPSC-derived neuronal cells reveals a module of co-expressed genes consistently associated with autism spectrum disorder

Project description:Evaluation of expression profile in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) patients is an important approach to understand possible similar functional consequences that may underlie disease pathophysiology regardless of its genetic heterogeneity. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neuronal models have been useful to explore this question. Using RNAseq, we examined the transcriptome of iPSC-derived Neuronal Progenitor Cells (NPC) and neurons from a normocephalic ASD cohort composed mostly of high functioning individuals and from non-ASD individuals. ASD patients presented expression dysregulation of a module of co-expressed genes involved in protein synthesis in NPC, and a module of genes related to synapse/neurotransmission and a module related to translation in neurons. Remarkably, the comparison of our results to a series of transcriptome studies revealed that the module related to synapse has been consistently found as upregulated in iPSC-derived neurons, while downregulated in brain samples. Therefore, the expression pattern of this network might be used as biomarker for ASD and should be experimentally explored as a therapeutic target.

A Pilot Proteomic Study of Protein Markers in Autism Spectrum Disorder

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis is increasing, with 1/88 children believed to be affected by the disorder, with a most recent survey suggesting numbers as high as 1/50. Treatment and understanding of ASD causes is a pressing health concern. ASD protein biomarkers may provide clues about ASD cause. Protein biomarkers for ASDs could be used for ASD diagnosis, subtyping, treatment monitoring and identifying therapeutic targets. Here we analyzed the sera from 7 children with ASD and 7 matched controls using Tricine gel electrophoresis (Tricine-PAGE) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Overall, we found increased levels of apolipoproteins (Apos) ApoA1 and ApoA4, involved in cholesterol metabolism and of serum paraoxanase/arylesterase 1 (PON1), involved in preventing oxidative damage, in the sera of children with ASD, compared with their matched controls. All three proteins are predicted to interact with each other and are parts of High Density Lipoproteins (HDLs). Further studies are needed to validate these findings in larger subject numbers.

The complex etiology of autism spectrum disorder due to missense mutations of CHD8

Project description:CHD8 is an ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling factor encoded by the most frequently mutated gene in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although many studies have examined the consequences of CHD8 haploinsufficiency in cells and mice, few have focused on missense mutations, the most common type of CHD8 alteration in ASD patients. We here characterized CHD8 missense mutations in ASD patients according to six prediction scores and experimentally examined the effects of such mutations on the biochemical activities of CHD8, neural differentiation of embryonic stem cells, and mouse behavior. Only mutations with high prediction scores gave rise to ASD-like phenotypes in mice, suggesting that not all CHD8 missense mutations detected in ASD patients are directly responsible for the development of ASD. Furthermore, we found that mutations with high scores cause ASD by mechanisms either dependent on or independent of loss of chromatin-remodeling function. Our results thus provide insight into the molecular underpinnings of ASD pathogenesis caused by missense mutations of CHD8.

Human Gut Microbiota from Autism Spectrum Disorder Promote Behavioral Symptoms in Mice

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) manifests as alterations in complex human behaviors including social communication and stereotypies. In addition to genetic risks, the gut microbiome differs between typically-developing (TD) and ASD individuals, though it remains unclear whether the microbiome contributes to symptoms. We transplanted gut microbiota from human donors with ASD and TD controls into germ-free mice, and reveal that colonization with ASD microbiota was sufficient to induce hallmark autistic behaviors. The brains of mice colonized with ASD microbiota display alternative splicing of ASD-relevant genes. Microbiome and metabolome profiles of mice harboring human microbiota predict that specific bacterial taxa and their metabolites modulate ASD behaviors. Indeed, treatment of an ASD mouse model with candidate microbial metabolites improves behavioral abnormalities and affects neuronal excitability in the brain. We propose that the gut microbiome modulates behaviors in mice via production of neuroactive metabolites, suggesting that gut-brain connections contribute to the pathophysiology of ASD.

Functional DNA methylation signatures for genomic loci that confer an increased risk for autism spectrum disorder: 16p11.2 deletions and CHD8 variants

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a common and etiologically heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder. Although many genetic causes have been identified (>200 ASD-risk genes), no single gene mutation accounts for >1% of all ASD cases. A role for epigenetic mechanisms in ASD etiology is supported by the fact that many ASD-risk genes function as epigenetic regulators and evidence that epigenetic dysregulation can interrupt normal brain development. To investigate the epigenome in patients with ASD, genome-wide DNA methylation (DNAm) was assessed using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450K array in blood from individuals with ASD of heterogeneous, undefined etiology (n=52) and individuals with 16p11.2 deletions (16p11.2del, n=9) or pathogenic variants in the chromatin modifier CHD8 (CHD8+/-, n=7), two of the most common genomic variants conferring increased risk for ASD. DNAm patterns did not clearly distinguish heterogeneous ASD cases from controls. However, the homogeneous genetically-defined 16p11.2del and CHD8+/- subgroups each exhibited unique DNAm signatures that distinguished 16p11.2del or CHD8+/- individuals from both heterogeneous ASD and control groups with high sensitivity and specificity. These signatures also classified additional 16p11.2del (n=9) and CHD8 (n=9) variants as pathogenic or benign. Our findings that DNAm alterations in each signature targets unique genes in biological pathways relevant to neural development support their functional relevance. Furthermore, genes identified in our CHD8+/- DNAm signature in blood overlapped differentially expressed genes in CHD8+/- human-induced pluripotent cell-derived neurons and cerebral organoids from independent studies. Our study constitutes a novel approach for ASD molecular classification that elucidates the vital cross-talk between genetics and epigenetics in the etiology of ASD.

Affymetrix CytoScan HD for autism spectrum disorder in children

Project description:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex heterogeneous developmental disease with a significant genetic background that is frequently caused by rare copy number variants (CNV). The aim of the study was to identify new candidate genes for ASD in the studied cohort of ASD-diagnosed patients. We used chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) - a Cytoscan HD (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA) to detect CNV in 87 ASD patients and their relatives and evaluated their clinical significance. Pathogenic and likely pathogenic mutations were identified by CMA in 8 and 9 ASD patients, respectively. CMA revealed 89 rare CNV: 8 pathogenic, 12 designated VOUS - likely pathogenic, 12 VOUS - uncertain, and 57 VOUS - likely benign or benign. CNV (pathogenic/VOUS-likely pathogenic/VOUS - uncertain) overlapping the same gene in more than one patient were observed in DOCK8 gene and PARK2 gene. This work presents new evidence about the possible roles of PARK2 and DOCK8 in the etiology of ASD, and suggests CTNNA2 as a candidate gene for ASD risk.

Gut Microbiota from Human Autism Spectrum Disorder Induces Behavioral Deficits in Mice

Project description:We transplanted gut microbiota via fecal transfer from TD and ASD children into germ-free wild-type mice, and reveal that colonization with ASD microbiomes induces hallmark changes in sociability, vocalization, and stereotypies. The brains of mice receiving gut microbiota from ASD individuals display alternative splicing patterns for genes dysregulated in the human ASD brain.
