Genome-Wide miRNA Expression Profiling of Human Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines Identifies Tentative SSRI Antidepressant Response Biomarkers
Abstract
Aim Over 30% of patients with major depression do not respond well to first-line treatment with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Using genome-wide expression profiling of human lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) CHL1 was identified as a tentative SSRI sensitivity biomarker. This study reports on miRNAs implicated in SSRI sensitivity of LCLs. Methods Eighty LCLs were screened from healthy adult female individuals for growth inhibition by paroxetine. Eight LCLs exhibiting high or low sensitivities to paroxetine were chosen for genome-wide expression profiling with miRNA microarrays. Results The miRNA miR-151-3p had 6.7-fold higher basal expression in paroxetine-sensitive LCLs. This corresponds with lower expression of CHL1, a target of miR-151-3p. The additional miRNAs miR-212, miR-132, miR-30b*, let-7b and let-7c also differed by >1.5-fold (p Conclusion The potential value of these miRNAs as tentative SSRI response biomarkers awaits validation with lymphocyte samples of major depression patients.

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.
