Abstract:
:This work was purposed to speculate the possible association of rs2910164hsa-miR-146a C>G gene single nucleotide polymorphism in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia and subsequently their relevance to neuro-inflammatory, vascular and oxidative stress pathways as acute ischemic stroke (AIS) risk factors in chronic schizophrenic patients. 450 subjects, 150 healthy controls (group I), 150 chronic schizophrenic patients without any evidences of stroke (group II) and 150 chronic schizophrenic patients with AIS (group III) were included. Genotypes (CC, CG&GG) for hsa-mir-146a gene polymorphism were identified using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism PCR-RFLP technique. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 1β (IL-1 β), plasminogen activator-inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), thrombomodulin (TM) and 8-Hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) serum levels were immunoassayed. Complete lipid profile was estimated. The CG and GG hsa-miR-146a genotypes were associated with increased risk of both schizophrenia and AIS in schizophrenic patients with thrombomodulin levels decrement in group II& III. On the other side, the risk genotypes were associated significantly with positive and negative syndrome scale PANSS scores, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1 β, PAI-1, and 8-OHdG increment levels in both groups II & III. By contrast, the CG and GG hsa-miR-146a genotypes did not affect the neuro-inflammatory and oxidative stress markers in healthy controls. These findings illustrate a new mechanism strengthening the occurrence of oxidative stress and DNA damage as a result of the neuro-inflammatory and endothelial dysfunction status originated from the hsa-miR-146a C>G gene single nucleotide polymorphism, thus, confirming their role in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia and its AIS risk.
