Genetic association between epilepsy and gliomas: Insights from Mendelian randomization and single-cell transcriptomic analyses
Background
Seizures are prevalent in glioma patients, especially in those with low-grade gliomas. The interaction between gliomas and epilepsy involves complex biological mechanisms that are not fully understood.
Methods
We collected Genome-Wide Association Study data for epilepsy and gliomas, performed differential expression analysis, and conducted Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis on the identified genes. Single-cell RNA sequencing data (scRNA-seq) from GSE221534 dataset in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) were used to analyze cell–cell interactions within glioma samples from patients with and without epilepsy.
Results
Mendelian Randomization (MR) analysis revealed significant associations between genetic variants related to epilepsy and glioma risk, suggesting a potential causal relationship, especially in astrocytomas. Differential expression analysis identified epilepsy-related genes that were significantly upregulated in astrocytoma tissues compared to normal brain tissues. GO enrichment analysis indicated that these genes are involved in critical biological processes such as neurogenesis and cellular signaling. The scRNA-seq analysis showed, compared to non-epileptic samples, glioma stem cells, microglia, and NK cells are increased in the core regions of astrocytomas in epileptic patients. Additionally, intercellular communication between tumor cells and other non-tumor cells is markedly enhanced in astrocytoma samples from epileptic patients.
Conclusion
This study provides evidence of a genetic association between epilepsy and gliomas and elucidates the biological mechanisms through which epilepsy may influence glioma progression.
期刊介绍:
Epilepsy & Behavior is the fastest-growing international journal uniquely devoted to the rapid dissemination of the most current information available on the behavioral aspects of seizures and epilepsy.
Epilepsy & Behavior presents original peer-reviewed articles based on laboratory and clinical research. Topics are drawn from a variety of fields, including clinical neurology, neurosurgery, neuropsychiatry, neuropsychology, neurophysiology, neuropharmacology, and neuroimaging.
From September 2012 Epilepsy & Behavior stopped accepting Case Reports for publication in the journal. From this date authors who submit to Epilepsy & Behavior will be offered a transfer or asked to resubmit their Case Reports to its new sister journal, Epilepsy & Behavior Case Reports.
