Abstract
Background: The causes of migraine remain unclear. Evidence suggests that the MAPK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways play a role in migraine pathogenesis. However, studies on genetic polymorphisms in the two pathways associated with migraine are still limited.
Methods: This study included 226 migraineurs and 452 age- and sex-matched nonmigraine control individuals. Genotyping of 31 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in 21 genes was performed. The relationship between migraine and gene polymorphisms was analyzed by using logistic regression. SNP-SNP interactions were examined by a generalized multifactor dimension reduction (GMDR) approach. The possible role of SNPs was evaluated with gene expression data from the GTEx database.
Results: The RASGRP2-rs2230414 GT genotype was associated with decreased migraine risk compared with the wild-type GG genotype [ORadj (95% CI): 0.674(0.458-0.989)]. PIK3R1-rs3730089 was associated with migraine in the recessive model [ORadj (95% CI): 1.446(1.004-2.083)]. The CACNA1H-rs61734410 CT genotype was associated with migraine risk [ORadj (95% CI): 1.561(1.068-2.281)]. One significant two-way SNP-SNP interaction was found (PRKCA rs2228945-BDNF rs6265) (p = 0.0107). Significant eQTL and sQTL signals were observed for the SNP rs2230414.
Conclusions: This is the first study to systematically reveal significant associations between MAPK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway-related gene polymorphisms and migraine risk.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine is a peer-reviewed journal for rapid dissemination of quality research related to the dynamically developing areas of human, molecular and medical genetics. The journal publishes original research articles covering findings in phenotypic, molecular, biological, and genomic aspects of genomic variation, inherited disorders and birth defects. The broad publishing spectrum of Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine includes rare and common disorders from diagnosis to treatment. Examples of appropriate articles include reports of novel disease genes, functional studies of genetic variants, in-depth genotype-phenotype studies, genomic analysis of inherited disorders, molecular diagnostic methods, medical bioinformatics, ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI), and approaches to clinical diagnosis. Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine provides a scientific home for next generation sequencing studies of rare and common disorders, which will make research in this fascinating area easily and rapidly accessible to the scientific community. This will serve as the basis for translating next generation sequencing studies into individualized diagnostics and therapeutics, for day-to-day medical care.
Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine publishes original research articles, reviews, and research methods papers, along with invited editorials and commentaries. Original research papers must report well-conducted research with conclusions supported by the data presented.
