Project description:In this pilot study, we analyzed serum microRNA profiles of subjects with post-traumatic stress disorders in order to determine their potential to be used as diagnostic biomarkers. We discovered that serum microRNAs could potentially serve as diagnostic biomarkers of PTSD, both individually or grouped within a cluster of co-expressed miRNAs.

Project description:Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with exposure to repetitive head impacts, which is susceptible in elderly people with declined mobility, athletes of full contact sports, military personnel and victims of domestic violence. It has been pathologically diagnosed in brain donors with a history of repetitive mild traumatic brain injury (rmTBI), but cannot be clinically diagnosed for a long time. By the continuous efforts by neuropathologists, neurologists and neuroscientists in recent 10 years, an expert consensus for the diagnostic framework of CTE was proposed in 2021 funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. The new consensus contributes to facilitating research in the field. However, it still needs to incorporate in-vivo biomarkers to further refine and validate the clinical diagnostic criteria. From this, a single-center, observational cohort study has been being conducted by Tianjin Medical University General Hospital since 2021. As a pilot study of this clinical trial, the present research recruited 4 pairs of gender- and age-matched rmTBI patients with healthy subjects. Their blood samples were collected for exosome isolation, and multi-omics screening to explore potential diagnostic biomarkers in blood and its exosomes.

Project description:The molecular factors involved in the development of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) remain poorly understood. Previous transcriptomic studies investigating the mechanisms of PTSD apply targeted approaches to identify individual genes under a cross-sectional framework lack a holistic view of the behaviours and properties of these genes at the system-level. Here we sought to apply an unsupervised gene-network-based approach to a prospective experimental design using whole-transcriptome RNA-Seq gene expression from peripheral blood leukocytes of U.S. Marines (N=188), obtained both pre- and post-deployment to conflict zones. We identified discrete groups of co-regulated genes (i.e., co-expression modules) and tested them for association to PTSD. We identified one module at both pre- and post-deployment containing putative causal signatures for PTSD development displaying an over-expression of genes enriched for functions of innate-immune response and interferon signalling (Type-I and Type-II). Importantly, these results were replicated in a second non-overlapping independent dataset of U.S. Marines (N=96), further outlining the role of innate immune and interferon signalling genes within co-expression modules to explain at least part of the causal pathophysiology for PTSD development. A second module, consequential of trauma exposure, contained PTSD resiliency signatures and an over-expression of genes involved in hemostasis and wound responsiveness suggesting that chronic levels of stress impair proper wound healing during/after exposure to the battlefield while highlighting the role of the hemostatic system as a clinical indicator of chronic-based stress. These findings provide novel insights for early preventative measures and advanced PTSD detection, which may lead to interventions that delay or perhaps abrogate the development of PTSD. We used microarrays to characterize both prognostic and diagnostic molecular signatures associated to PTSD risk and PTSD status compared to control subjects. Peripheral blood leukocytes gene expression was subject to transcriptional analysis for 48 service members both prior-to and following deployment to conflict zones. Half of the subjects returned with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), while the other half did not.

Project description:The biological underpinnings of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have not been fully elucidated. Previous work suggests that alterations in the immune system are characteristic of the disorder. Identifying the biological mechanisms by which such alterations occur could provide fundamental insights into the etiology and treatment of PTSD. Here we identify specific epigenetic profiles underlying immune system changes associated with PTSD. Using blood samples (n=100) obtained from an ongoing, prospective epidemiologic study in Detroit, the Detroit Neighborhood Health Study (DNHS), we applied methylation microarrays to assay CpG sites from over 14,000 genes among 23 PTSD-affected and 77 PTSD-unaffected individuals. We show that immune system functions are significantly overrepresented among the annotations associated with genes uniquely unmethylated among those with PTSD. We further demonstrate that genes whose methylation levels are significantly and negatively correlated with traumatic burden show a similar strong signal of immune function among the PTSD-affected. The observed epigenetic variability in immune function by PTSD is corroborated using an independent biological marker of immune response to infection, cytomegalovirus—a typically latent herpesvirus whose activity was significantly higher among those with PTSD. These results provide the first report of peripheral epigenomic and CMV profiles associated with mental illness and suggest a new biological model of PTSD etiology in which an externally experienced traumatic event induces downstream alterations in immune function by reducing methylation levels of immune-related genes. Bisulfite conversion of whole blood-derived DNA samples was performed using the EZ-96 DNA methylation kit from Zymo Research. One microgram (μg) of each sample (including controls) was subjected to bisulfite conversion following manufacturer’s recommended protocol. 100 samples were analyzed of which 23 are PTSD affected and 77 are PTSD-unaffected. There were four technical replicates comprised of duplicate samples of two randomly selected individuals from the n=100 and duplicate samples of the control human methylated and unmethylated DNA.

Project description:We have used a social defeat (SD) mouse model of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) that is based on a brief exposure of a mouse to the aggressor mice for either 5 d or 10 d stress periods. Mice simulating aspects of posttraumatic stress disorder exhibit behavioral changes, body weight gain, increased body temperature, and inflammatory and fibrotic histopathologies and transcriptomic changes of heart tissue. Liver tissue of these mice was subjected to mRNA analysis. Transcriptomic analysis of liver indicated chronic toxicities and metabolic alterations in aggressor-exposed mice that possibly contributed to the persistent metabolic disturbance Two-condition experiment, C57BL6/J mice Biological replicates: 4-6 control replicates, 5-6 stressed replicates.
