Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of depressed (n=489) and control subjects (n=210) that were recruited at the Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry (MPIP). The Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles based whole blood samples.

Project description:Analysis of gene-expression changes in depressed subjects with bipolar disorder compared to healthy controls. Results provide information on pathways that may be involved in the pathogenesis of bipolar depression. Total RNA isolated from PAXgene blood RNA tubes from 20 depressed subjects with bipolar disorder and 15 healthy controls.

Project description:We analyzed the levels of DNA methylation in DNA purified from BA9 of 21 depressed suicide completers and 21 healthy controls, using the Infinium® MethylationEPICBeadChip. The goal of the study was to determine which genes were differentially methylated in neurons between the two groups. We identified1,236 differentially methylated CpGs with a p ≤ 0.001. Gene Ontology and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis were performed to determine classes of genes and pathways associated with the suicide completers.
