Expression of micro-RNAs miR-31, miR-146a, miR-181c and miR-155 and their target gene IL-2 are altered in schizophrenia: a case-control study

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder with a heterogeneous clinical phenotype. The association of interleukins and other cytokines and their receptors with schizophrenia has been previously reported. Additionally, a number of studies have reported altered micro-RNA (miRNA) expression in schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. The aim of our study was to explore the possible association of miR-31, miR-146a, miR-181c and miR-155 with schizophrenia pathogenesis, as well as their link to IL2 gene expression in disease. Methods: For this case-control study, 225 patients with paranoid schizophrenia and 225 sex- and age-matched controls with no family history of schizophrenia were recruited. The expression of studied miRNAs and the IL2 gene was measured using qPCR. DNA samples of all patients and controls were genotyped for IL2 rs2069778 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) using PCR with sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP). Statistical analyses include the Mann-Whitney U-test and Fischer’s exact test. Results: All studied miRNAs were over-expressed in schizophrenic patients IL2 gene expression was down-regulated in schizophrenic patients. The IL2 rs2069778 SNP is not associated with schizophrenia but regulates expression of the IL2 gene. Conclusions: Over-expression of studied miRNAs and down-regulation of IL2 gene expression may be considered as genetic risk factors for chronic schizophrenia. Abnormalities in studied miRNA expressions result in the deregulation of the T-cell receptor signaling pathway in schizophrenia.
