Updated Trans-Ethnic Meta-Analysis of Associations between Inflammation-Related Genes and Intracranial Aneurysm.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We performed an expanded multi-ethnic meta-analysis to identify associations between inflammation-related loci with intracranial aneurysm (IA) susceptibility. This meta-analysis possesses increased statistical power as it is based on the most data ever evaluated.

Methods

We searched and reviewed relevant literature through electronic search engines up to August 2022. Overall estimates were calculated under the fixed- or random-effect models using pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analyses were performed according to ethnicity.

Results

Our meta-analysis enrolled 15 studies and involved 3070 patients and 5528 controls including European, Asian, Hispanic, and mixed ethnic populations. Of 17 inflammation-related variants, the rs1800796 locus (interleukin [IL]-6) showed the most significant genome-wide association with IA in East-Asian populations, including 1276 IA patients and 1322 controls (OR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.56-0.75; p=3.24×10-9) under a fixed-effect model. However, this association was not observed in the European population (OR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.80-1.47; p=0.5929). Three other variants, rs16944 (IL-1β), rs2195940 (IL-12B), and rs1800629 (tumor necrosis factor-α) showed a statistically nominal association with IA in both the overall, as well as East-Asian populations (0.01ConclusionOur updated meta-analysis with increased statistical power highlights that rs1800796 which maps on the IL-6 gene is associated with IA, and in particular confers a protective effect against occurrence of IA in the East-Asian population.

Project description:Ruptured intracranial aneurysm (IA)‑induced subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) triggers a series of immune responses and inflammation in the brain and body. The present study was conducted to identify additional circulating biomarkers that may serve as potential therapeutic targets for SAH‑induced inflammation. Differentially expressed (DE) long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs; DElncRNAs) and genes (DEGs) in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells between patients with IA rupture‑induced SAH and healthy controls were identified in the GSE36791 dataset. DEGs were used for weighted gene co‑expression network analysis (WGCNA), and SAH‑associated WGCNA modules were identified. Subsequently, an lncRNA‑mRNA regulatory network was constructed using the DEGs in SAH‑associated WGCNA modules. A total of 25 DElncRNAs and 1,979 DEGs were screened from patients with IA‑induced SAH in the GSE36791 dataset compared with the controls. A total of 11 WGCNA modules, including four upregulated modules significantly associated with IA rupture‑induced SAH were obtained. The DEGs in the SAH‑associated modules were associated with Gene Ontology biological processes such as 'regulation of programmed cell death', 'apoptosis' and 'immune response'. The subsequent lncRNA‑mRNA regulatory network included seven upregulated lncRNAs [HCG27, ZNFX1 antisense RNA 1, long intergenic non‑protein coding RNA (LINC)00265, murine retrovirus integration site 1 homolog‑antisense RNA 1, cytochrome P450 1B1‑AS1, LINC01347 and LINC02193] and 375 DEGs. Functional enrichment analysis and screening in the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database demonstrated that SAH‑associated DEGs, including neutrophil cytosolic factor (NCF)2 and NCF4, were enriched in 'chemokine signaling pathway' (hsa04062), 'leukocyte transendothelial migration' (hsa04670) and 'Fc gamma R‑mediated phagocytosis' (hsa04666). The upregulated lncRNAs and genes, including NCF2 and NCF4, in patients with IA rupture‑induced SAH indicated their respective potentials as anti‑inflammatory therapeutic targets.
