Abstract Understanding the contribution of immune mechanisms to Parkinson’s disease pathogenesis is an important challenge, potentially major therapeutic implications. To further elucidate involvement peripheral cells, we studied epigenome-wide DNA methylation in isolated populations CD14 + monocytes, CD19 B CD4 T and CD8 cells from patients healthy control participants. We included 25 with a maximum five years duration controls, four cell each fresh blood sample. Epigenome-wide profiles were generated 186 samples using Illumina MethylationEpic array association status was tested linear regression models. identified six differentially methylated CpGs monocytes one cells.

Earlier research has established the existence of reliable interactive genomic biomarkers. However, DNA methylation biomarkers, not to mention interactivity, have yet be identified at epigenetic level. This study, drawing from 865,859 sites, discovered two miniature sets Infinium MethylationEPIC each having eight CpG sites (genes) interact with other and disease subtypes. They led nearly perfect (96.87–100% accuracy) prediction COVID-19 patients diseases or healthy controls. These can jointly explain some post-COVID-19-related conditions. optimally performing biomarkers reported in literature become potential druggable targets.

The epigenetic status of patients 6-month post-COVID-19 infection remains largely unexplored. existence long-COVID, or post-acute sequelae SARS-CoV-2 (PASC), suggests potential long-term changes. Long-COVID includes symptoms like fatigue, neurological issues, and organ-related problems, regardless initial severity. mechanisms behind long-COVID are unclear, but virus-induced changes could play a role. Our study explores the lasting impacts infection. We analyzed genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in an Italian cohort 96 6 months after COVID-19 exposure, comparing them to 191 healthy controls. identified 42 CpG sites with significant differences (FDR < 0.05), primarily within islands gene promoters. Dysregulated genes highlighted links glutamate/glutamine metabolism, which may be relevant PASC symptoms. Key significance effects include GLUD1, ATP1A3, ARRB2. Furthermore, Horvath's clock showed slight age acceleration patients. also observed substantial increase stochastic mutations (SEMs) group, implying drift. SEM analysis 790 affected genes, indicating dysregulation pathways related insulin resistance, VEGF signaling, apoptosis, hypoxia response, T-cell activation, endothelin signaling. provides valuable insights into consequences COVID-19.
