Assessment of Expression of lncRNAs in Autistic Patients
Autism is a severe neurodevelopmental condition with unknown pathobiology. Nevertheless, multiple pieces of evidence suggest long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) dysregulation may be a contributing factor to this disorder. We investigated the association between the expression of five specific lncRNAs and autism. Peripheral blood was collected from 30 children with autism and 41 healthy children. The expression levels of PCAT-29, lincRNA-ROR, LINC-PINT, lincRNA-p21, and PCAT-1 were calculated. Then, their significance as biomarkers was also evaluated. The expression of LincRNA-ROR (27 times), LINC-PINT (5.26 times), LincRNA-p21 (4.54 times), PCAT-29 (16.66 times), and PCAT-1 (25 times) genes was significantly decreased in patients compared to the control group (p values < 0.05). According to the ROC curve analysis for each lncRNA, LincRNA-ROR, LINC-PINT, LincRNA-p21, PCAT-29, and PCAT-1 lncRNAs with diagnostic power of 0.85, 0.67, 0.64, 0.74, and 0.84, respectively, could be used as diagnostic biomarkers for autism. Additionally, significant positive correlations were reported between expression levels of PCAT-1 and PCAT-29 genes. Moreover, a positive correlation was detected between expression levels of lincRNA-ROR and patients’ age. The current study shows further pieces of evidence for deregulation of lncRNAs in autistic patients that show these lncRNAs may play an important part in the pathogenesis of ASD. However, the role of lncRNA in the neurobiology of autism needs to be investigated further.
