ABSTRACT
The mRNA markers identified using microarray assay and diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DTI) were applied to elucidate the pathophysiology of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). First, we obtained total RNA from leukocytes from three children with ADHD and three healthy controls for analysis with microarray assays. Subsequently, we applied real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT‒PCR) assays to validate the differential expression of 7 genes (COX7B, CYCS, TFAM, UTP14A, ZNF280C, IFT57 and NDUFB5) between 130 ADHD patients and 70 controls, and we built an ADHD prediction model based on the ΔCt values of aforementioned seven genes (AUROC = 0.98). Finally, in a validation group (28 patients with ADHD and 27 healthy controls), mRNA expression of the above seven genes also significantly differentiated ADHD patients from controls (AUROC value = 0.91). The DTI analysis showed increased fractional anisotropy (FA) of the forceps minor, superior corona radiata, posterior corona radiata and anterior corona radiata in ADHD patients. Moreover, the FA of the right superior corona radiata tract was positively correlated with ΔCt levels of the COX7B gene and the IFT57 gene. The results shed a new light on a genetic profile of ADHD that may help in deciphering the white matter microstructural features in disease pathogenesis.
