Abstract:
Objective:To explore personality change and its association with lncRNA expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in patients with epilepsy.Methods:Fifty-eight epilepsy patients recruited by the convenient sampling were assessed utilizing personality diagnostic questionnaire(PDQ) for personality change screening.The expression levels of lncRNA in peripheral blood of study group and the controls were investigated by qRT-PCR.Descriptive statistical analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis and ROC analysis were employed for data processing.Results:There were 9 of schizoid (S≥4), 11 of schizotypal(S≥5), 17 of paranoid (S≥4) and 15 of compulsive (S≥4) personality change in epilepsy patients, and 52 patients had different types personality changes(89.66%).Schizoid, schizotypal, paranoid and compulsive personality changes were negatively correlated with expression levels of NONHSAG012869(PR3), NONHSAT006265(PR4), ENST00000581634(PR6) and ENST00000524610(PR8) ( r=-0.46--0.71, P<0.05 or 0.01).PR1, PR3, and PR8 had significant predictive effects on schizoid personality change ( P<0.01), PR4, PR8 had a significant predictive effect on schizotypal personality change ( P<0.01), PR3, PR4 and PR6 had significant predictive effects on paranoid personality change( P<0.05), and PR4, PR5, PR8 had significant predictive effects on compulsive personality change ( P<0.05).The effects of lncRNAs on the personality change variance accounted for 0.36, 0.30, 0.40, 0.20 respectively.ROC curve analysis of the diagnostic value of lncRNA expression level on personality change in the epilepsy group showed that NONHSAG012869 (PR3), NONHSAT006265(PR4), ENST00000581634(PR6) and ENST00000524610(PR8) had certain diagnostic value for personality change.The area under curve(AUC)=0.650-0.682, P<0.05, 95% CI: 0.546-0.784. Conclusion:Schizoid, schizotypal, paranoid, and compulsive personality change are common in epileptic patients, and the expression level of peripheral blood lncRNA has a certain diagnostic value for personality change.
