Male-Specific Association between Dopamine Receptor D4 Gene Methylation and Schizophrenia
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVE: The goal of our study was to investigate whether DRD4 gene DNA methylation played an important role in the susceptibility of Han Chinese SCZ. METHODS: Using the bisulphite pyrosequencing technology, DNA methylation levels of 6 CpG dinucleotides in DRD4 CpG island were measured among 30 paranoid SCZ patients, 30 undifferentiated SCZ patients, and 30 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. RESULTS: Strong correlation was observed among the six CpG sites (r>0.5, P<0.01), thus average methylation levels were applied thereafter. Our results indicated that there was a significant association between DRD4 methylation and the risk of SCZ (P = 0.003), although there was no significant difference in DRD4 methylation between the two SCZ subtypes (P = 0.670). A breakdown analysis by gender showed that the significant association of DRD4 methylation and SCZ was driven by males (P<0.001) but not by females (P = 0.835). DRD4 methylation was significantly associated with p300 in male SCZ patients (r = -0.543, P = 0.005) but not in female SCZ patients (r = 0.110, P = 0.599). Moreover, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves showed DRD4 methylation was able to predict the status of SCZ in males [area under curve (AUC) = 0.832, P = 0.002] but not in females (AUC = 0.483, P = 0.876). Finally, a further expression experiment showed that DRD4 methylation in the gene body was positively associated with gene expression, although the exact mechanism of gene regulation remained unknown for this interesting DRD4 methylation. CONCLUSION: The gender disparity in the DRD4 DNA methylation provides novel insights into the pathogenesis of SCZ.

Studies examining DNAm in the blood of patients with SCZ compared with controls have shown both higher and lower DNAm levels in different DA receptor genes, with decreased DNAm in DRD3 and DRD4.
“Studies examining DNAm in the blood of patients with SCZ as compared with controls have showed both higher and lower DNAm levels in different DA receptor's genes; with decreased DNAm in DRD3 (Dai et al., 2014) and DRD4 (Cheng et al., 2014)”
From Can epigenetics shine a light on the biological pathways underlying major mental disorders? (2022) · cites this paper as Cheng et al., 2014
The citation to Cheng et al. is attached to the claim of decreased DRD4 methylation in patients with schizophrenia. The Results report the opposite: DRD4 methylation was higher in patients than controls, with a significant difference in males and no significant difference in females. (LLM, conf=0.94)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
