摘要

背景:歌舞伎综合征(KS)是一种罕见的发育障碍疾病,以多种先天性畸形和智力障碍为特征。UTX(泛转录四肽重复,X 染色体)编码组蛋白去甲基化酶,是 KS 的两大致病风险基因之一。虽然智力障碍是 KS 的主要表型,但UTX 在认知功能中的作用仍不清楚。目的:本研究旨在研究UTX如何调节认知,探索UTX功能障碍的机制,并确定潜在的治疗分子靶点:我们产生了UTX条件性基因敲除小鼠,发现UTX缺失通过破坏H3K27me3(三甲基化组蛋白H3赖氨酸27)的去甲基化下调钙调蛋白转录:结果:UTX基因敲除小鼠表现出钙/钙调蛋白依赖性蛋白激酶II磷酸化减少、长期延时能力受损以及远距离情境恐惧记忆缺失。食品与药物管理局批准的药物地西帕明可逆转这些影响:我们的研究结果揭示了UTX在突触可塑性和认知功能中发挥重要作用的表观遗传学机制,并表明地西泮可能是治疗KS的一种潜在方法。

Desipramine reverses remote memory deficits by activating calmodulin-CaMKII pathway in a UTX knockout mouse model of Kabuki syndrome.

Background: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare developmental disorder characterised by multiple congenital anomalies and intellectual disability. UTX (ubiquitously transcribed tetratricopeptide repeat, X chromosome), which encodes a histone demethylase, is one of the two major pathogenic risk genes for KS. Although intellectual disability is a key phenotype of KS, the role of UTX in cognitive function remains unclear. Currently, no targeted therapies are available for KS.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate how UTX regulates cognition, to explore the mechanisms underlying UTX dysfunction and to identify potential molecular targets for treatment.

Methods: We generated UTX conditional knockout mice and found that UTX deletion downregulated calmodulin transcription by disrupting H3K27me3 (trimethylated histone H3 at lysine 27) demethylation.

Results: UTX-knockout mice showed decreased phosphorylation of calcium / calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, impaired long-term potentiation and deficit in remote contextual fear memory. These effects were reversed by an Food and Drug Administration-approved drug desipramine.

Conclusions: Our results reveal an epigenetic mechanism underlying the important role of UTX in synaptic plasticity and cognitive function, and suggest that desipramine could be a potential treatment for KS.

期刊介绍: General Psychiatry (GPSYCH), an open-access journal established in 1959, has been a pioneer in disseminating leading psychiatry research. Addressing a global audience of psychiatrists and mental health professionals, the journal covers diverse topics and publishes original research, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, forums on topical issues, case reports, research methods in psychiatry, and a distinctive section on 'Biostatistics in Psychiatry'. The scope includes original articles on basic research, clinical research, community-based studies, and ecological studies, encompassing a broad spectrum of psychiatric interests.
