Obesity rates are rising rapidly in the United States, reaching epidemic proportions. Insights into which genes predispose individuals to develop obesity are a necessity. If people at risk for obesity can be identified, individualized treatment programs can be designed based on the individuals' genetic and epigenetic predisposition to help decrease the rate of obesity and obesity-related diseases and deaths. This study will be focusing on the genes FTO, MAOA, SH2B1, CCKAR, NEGR1, LEPR, DNMT3B, and BDNF that have been previously associated with obesity risk and obesity-related phenotypes. Transcript levels of FTO and MAOA were analyzed using quantitative real-time RTPCR, promoter methylation was examined utilizing methylation-sensitive restriction enzyme digestion assays designed for each of the eight gene promoters, and the genotype at eight SNPs, previously associated with obesity, were examined. These data were compared to data gathered on body composition, eating behavior, and temperament. The goals of this project were to replicate results from previous research suggesting associations between certain genetic variants to body composition measures, to identify novel associations between genetic and epigenetic variations and body composition, eating behavior, and temperament, and to provide evidence that the genes previously correlated to obesity in adults is also correlated to measures of obesity and obesity-related phenotypes in children. Decreased levels of methylation in the promoter of BDNF were associated with different eating behaviors including, decreased food fussiness and decreased satiety response. These results were statistically significant after Bonferroni correction for multiple testing. Genotype analysis at the SNP, rs4923461, in BDNF identified an association between the G allele and increased emotional under-eating in males. This association also remained significant after Bonferroni correction. These data gathered for BDNF may suggest a novel role for BDNF in the regulation of energy balance and obesity. The data analysis for all expression, methylation, and genotype data identified associations with 16 different obesity-related phenotypes. These phenotypes included; three measures of body composition, seven eating behaviors, two measures of food intake, one measure of self-regulation, and three measures of temperament. These associations were held to a lower statistical standard and are considered suggestive pending replication in a larger sample. This research was able to provide novel insight into genetic and epigenetic alterations that modify obesity-related phenotypes in African American children. A cumulative genetic and epigenetic "obesity risk factor" score was derived using all significant and suggestive associations to obesity-related phenotypes. The score was derived from the methylation analysis from all eight gene promoters, SNPs from LEPR, DNMT3B, and BDNF, and expression data for MAOA and FTO. The "obesity-risk factor" score was significantly higher in obese compared to non-obese individuals, suggesting the combined genetic and epigenetic approach has value in the prediction of childhood obesity in African Americans.

Full textSimilar to the pattern observed in people with substance abuse disorders, laboratory animals will exhibit escalation of cocaine intake when the drug is readily available and will exhibit increased drug-seeking behaviors after long periods of abstinence. Additionally, there are long term changes in neuron structure, receptor function, and neurotransmission associated with abstinence from cocaine in humans and animals. DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification to the DNA structure that mediates mRNA expression to confer different cell types, but has recently been implicated in learning and memory mechanisms. The long-term control that DNA methylation has over gene expression in animals makes it a prime candidate for controlling gene expression over the course of abstinence in animals with previous drug experience. Therefore, here, I investigated the contribution of behavioral contingency of cocaine administration on escalation of cocaine intake and re-exposure to cocaine cues as well as DNA methylation and gene expression within the dorsal medial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC) in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. I exposed rats to daily training for saline (1 h/ day) or cocaine (0.25 mg/kg/inf) in limited- (1 h access per day), prolonged- (6 h access per day), or limited + yoked-access (1 h contingent + 5 h non-contingent access per day) for 15 days. Rats were then put through forced abstinence for 1, 14, or 60 days, and then the dmPFC was dissected out. Saline- and prolonged-access rats were additionally separated into cue- and no cue- conditions after 60 days of abstinence, where cue rats were re-exposed to the operant chamber without cocaine delivery for 2 h. These studies led to 4 main findings. 1) cocaine contingency affects mRNA expression for glutamatergic genes, 2) DNA methylation changes dynamically throughout abstinence, 3) re-exposure to cocaine cues rapidly alters DNA methylation and mRNA expression, and 4) DNA methylation, hydroxymethylation, and transcription factor binding all contribute to altered mRNA expression.

Full textImpairments in various aspects of language, including the manipulation and comprehension of verbal and written language, are common in pediatric populations. Some disorders of language are secondary to other clinical presentations, while others, such as dyslexia (or reading disability [RD]), language impairment (LI), speech sound disorder (SSD), and autism spectrum disorders (ASD), have primary deficits in language skills. Each of these is a distinct disorder with unique clinical presentations and deficits. For instance, children with RD have deficits in reading and the use of written language, while those with LI have deficits in the manipulation and comprehension of verbal language. Additionally, children with SSD have difficulties in the production of speech sounds, while children with ASD may have delays or regressions in language and an inability to use complex, proper syntax and pragmatics. However, there is substantial comorbidity of these disorders, as children affected with one of these disorders are more likely to have or develop another disorder than their typically developing peers. These 'disorders—RD, LI, SSD, and ASD—are complex traits, with significant environmental and genetic components contributing to each. Similar to their phenotypic relationships, there is limited evidence that these disorders may share genetic contributors. In fact, these shared genetic components may explain the common phenotypic comorbidities of these disorders. Therefore, the overall goal of this project is to determine whether and to what extent RD, LI, SSD, and ASD share genetic associations with the hypothesis that these disorders have common genetic contributors. To accomplish this goal, I assess whether genetic associations were shared among these disorders or specific to individual disorders. First, I expand the association of the RD environmental risk factor, prenatal exposure to nicotine, to include LI and show the association of dopamine-related genes ANKK1 and DRD2 to LI. Second, two RD risk genes, DCDC2 and KIAA0319, located within the DYX2 locus on chromosome 6p22, show associations with both LI and SSD. Third, I identify ZNF385D as a novel risk gene for subjects affected with comorbid RD and LI. I also assess the neuroimaging implications of DYX2 genes and ZNF385D, specifically in regards to cortical thickness, fiber tract volume, and fractional anisotropy. Finally, two LI risk genes, ATP2C2 and CMIP located within the SLI1 locus on chromosome 16, are associated with language skills of subjects with ASD. Taken together, these results characterize the relationship of previously identified risk genes to other related language disorders and identify novel risk genes that specifically contribute to language comorbidity. Shared genetic associations among these language disorders appear to be commonplace as opposed to the exception. However, the question remains of how these genetic variants interact with each other and other genes/exposures to ultimately lead to one or more of these language deficits seen clinically.
