- Initial findings of striatum tripartite model in OCD brain samples based on transcriptome analysis(2019) LISBOA, Bianca C. G.; OLIVEIRA, Katia C.; TAHIRA, Ana Carolina; BARBOSA, Andre Rocha; FELTRIN, Arthur Sant'Anna; GOUVEIA, Gisele; LIMA, Luzia; SANTOS, Ana Cecilia Feio dos; JR, David Correa Martins; PUGA, Renato David; MORETTO, Ariane Cristine; PEREIRA, Carlos Alberto De Braganca; LAFER, Beny; LEITE, Renata Elaine Paraizo; FERRETTI-REBUSTINI, Renata Eloah De Lucena; FARFEL, Jose Marcelo; GRINBERG, Lea Tenenholz; JACOB-FILHO, Wilson; MIGUEL, Euripedes Constantino; HOEXTER, Marcelo Queiroz; BRENTANI, HelenaObsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder characterized by obsessions and/or compulsions. Different striatal subregions belonging to the cortico-striato-thalamic circuitry (CSTC) play an important role in the pathophysiology of OCD. The transcriptomes of 3 separate striatal areas (putamen (PT), caudate nucleus (CN) and accumbens nucleus (NAC)) from postmortem brain tissue were compared between 6 OCD and 8 control cases. In addition to network connectivity deregulation, different biological processes are specific to each striatum region according to the tripartite model of the striatum and contribute in various ways to OCD pathophysiology. Specifically, regulation of neurotransmitter levels and presynaptic processes involved in chemical synaptic transmission were shared between NAC and PT. The Gene Ontology terms cellular response to chemical stimulus, response to external stimulus, response to organic substance, regulation of synaptic plasticity, and modulation of synaptic transmission were shared between CN and PT. Most genes harboring common and/or rare variants previously associated with OCD that were differentially expressed or part of a least preserved coexpression module in our study also suggest striatum subregion specificity. At the transcriptional level, our study supports differences in the 3 circuit CSTC model associated with OCD.
- An integrative approach to investigate the respective roles of single-nucleotide variants and copy-number variants in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder(2016) LIMA, Leandro de Araujo; FEIO-DOS-SANTOS, Ana Cecilia; BELANGERO, Sintia Iole; GADELHA, Ary; BRESSAN, Rodrigo Affonseca; SALUM, Giovanni Abrahao; PAN, Pedro Mario; MORIYAMA, Tais Silveira; GRAEFF-MARTINS, Ana Soledade; TAMANAHA, Ana Carina; ALVARENGA, Pedro; KRIEGER, Fernanda Valle; FLEITLICH-BILYK, Bacy; JACKOWSKI, Andrea Parolin; BRIETZKE, Elisa; SATO, Joao Ricardo; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; MARI, Jair de Jesus; MANFRO, Gisele Gus; ROSARIO, Maria Conceicao do; MIGUEL, Euripedes Constantino; PUGA, Renato David; TAHIRA, Ana Carolina; SOUZA, Viviane Neri; CHILE, Thais; GOUVEIA, Gisele Rodrigues; SIMOES, Sergio Nery; CHANG, Xiao; PELLEGRINO, Renata; TIAN, Lifeng; GLESSNER, Joseph T.; HASHIMOTO, Ronaldo Fumio; ROHDE, Luis Augusto; SLEIMAN, Patrick M. A.; HAKONARSON, Hakon; BRENTANI, HelenaMany studies have attempted to investigate the genetic susceptibility of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), but without much success. The present study aimed to analyze both single-nucleotide and copy-number variants contributing to the genetic architecture of ADHD. We generated exome data from 30 Brazilian trios with sporadic ADHD. We also analyzed a Brazilian sample of 503 children/adolescent controls from a High Risk Cohort Study for the Development of Childhood Psychiatric Disorders, and also previously published results of five CNV studies and one GWAS meta-analysis of ADHD involving children/adolescents. The results from the Brazilian trios showed that cases with de novo SNVs tend not to have de novo CNVs and vice-versa. Although the sample size is small, we could also see that various comorbidities are more frequent in cases with only inherited variants. Moreover, using only genes expressed in brain, we constructed two ""in silico"" protein-protein interaction networks, one with genes from any analysis, and other with genes with hits in two analyses. Topological and functional analyses of genes in this network uncovered genes related to synapse, cell adhesion, glutamatergic and serotoninergic pathways, both confirming findings of previous studies and capturing new genes and genetic variants in these pathways.
- Molecular characterization of viruses associated with encephalitis in Sao Paulo, Brazil(2019) FERREIRA, Jerenice E.; FERREIRA, Suzete C.; ALMEIDA-NETO, Cesar; NISHIYA, Anna S.; ALENCAR, Cecilia S.; GOUVEIA, Gisele R.; CAIAFFA-FILHO, Helio; GOMES, Helio; SANTOSID, Raimunda Telma de Macedo; WITKIN, Steven S.; MENDRONE-JUNIOR, Alfredo; SABINO, Ester C.The objective of this study was to characterize the prevalence of viral encephalitis due to arbovirus infection of the Togaviridae and Flaviviridae families in Sao Paulo, Brazil. A total of 500 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples collected between August 2012 and January 2013, from patients with symptoms of acute encephalitis were analyzed. Findings suggestive of viral encephalitis-elevations in cell concentration, glucose and total protein-were observed in 234 (46.8%) samples, designated as Group 1. The remaining 266 samples comprised Group 2. All samples were tested for Flaviviruses (dengue virus 1, 2, 3 and 4, yellow fever virus and West Nile virus), Alphavirus (NS5 region) and enterovirus by RT-PCR and for herpesviruses and enteroviruses using CLART(-)Entherpex. A presumptive viral etiological agent was detected in 26 samples (5.2%), 18 (8.0%) in Group 1 and 8 (3.0%) in Group 2. In Group 1 human herpesviruses were detected in 9 cases, enteroviruses in 7 cases, dengue viruses (DENV) in 2 CSFs and St. Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) in one case. In Group 2 there were 3 CSFs positive for human herpesviruses, 2 for enteroviruses, 2 for DENV and 1 for SLEV. Detection of arboviruses, even though present in a minority of infected patients, identifies these viruses as a probable etiological agent of encephalitis. This is of special concern in regions where this class of viruses is endemic and has been linked to other recent epidemics.

- Sex differences in DNA methylation of the cord blood are related to sex-bias psychiatric diseases(2017) MASCHIETTO, Mariana; BASTOS, Laura Caroline; TAHIRA, Ana Carolina; BASTOS, Elen Pereira; EUCLYDES, Veronica Luiza Vale; BRENTANI, Alexandra; FINK, Gunther; BAUMONT, Angelica de; FELIPE-SILVA, Alosio; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; GOUVEIA, Gisele; GRISI, Sandra Josefina Ferraz Ellero; ESCOBAR, Ana Maria Ulhoa; MOREIRA-FILHO, Carlos Alberto; POLANCZYK, Guilherme Vanoni; MIGUEL, Euripedes Constantino; BRENTANI, HelenaSex differences in the prevalence of psychiatric disorders are well documented, with exposure to stress during gestation differentially impacting females and males. We explored sex-specific DNA methylation in the cord blood of 39 females and 32 males born at term and with appropriate weight at birth regarding their potential connection to psychiatric outcomes. Mothers were interviewed to gather information about environmental factors (gestational exposure) that could interfere with the methylation profiles in the newborns. Bisulphite converted DNA was hybridized to Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChips. Excluding XYS probes, there were 2,332 differentially methylated CpG sites (DMSs) between sexes, which were enriched within brain modules of co-methylated CpGs during brain development and also differentially methylated in the brains of boys and girls. Genes associated with the DMSs were enriched for neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly for CpG sites found differentially methylated in brain tissue between patients with schizophrenia and controls. Moreover, the DMS had an overlap of 890 (38%) CpG sites with a cohort submitted to toxic exposition during gestation. This study supports the evidences that sex differences in DNA methylation of autosomes act as a primary driver of sex differences that are found in psychiatric outcomes.
