摘要: ABSTRACT Background MiRNAs are small, noncoding RNAs possessing the potential to modulate gene expression upon binding their target messenger RNA (mRNA) constructs, and known play a role in pathogenesis of range psychiatric disorders. To date, little work has focused on miRNAs obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The aim this study was assess involvement OCD psychopathology. Methods most significant variants (p ≤ 1×10−4) from Psychiatric Genomics Consortium (PGC) TS/OCD Workgroup meta-analysis were selected investigated using miRBASE, TargetScan SNPnexus determine whether they influence miRNA- mediated regulation clinical manifestation OCD. Results Two-hundred forty SNPs identified PGC summarystatistics, which none found directly alter miRNA-related silico analyses. Enrichment analyses several indirect miRNA-mediated targets associated with both increased (ITPR3: mir-124A) decreased risk (GPR109A: mir-520A, mir-525; CGNL1: mir-98 mir-219). Conclusion indirectly implicated psychopathology implicates intracellular calcium immune dysregulation warrants further investigation system may disease.
