Abstract
Pathophysiological role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response signaling has been suggested for bipolar disorder. The goal of this study was to test the genetic association between bipolar disorder and an ER chaperone gene, HSP90B1 (GRP94/gp96), which is located on a candidate locus, 12q23.3. We tested the genetic association between bipolar disorder and HSP90B1 by case-control studies in two independent Japanese sample sets and by a transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) in NIMH Genetics initiative bipolar trio samples (NIMH trios). We also performed gene expression analysis of HSP90B1 in lymphoblastoid cells. Among the 11 SNPs tested, rs17034977 showed significant association in both Japanese sample sets. The frequency of the SNP was lower in NIMH samples than in Japanese samples and there was no significant association in NIMH trios. Gene expression analysis of HSP90B1 in lymphoblastoid cells suggested a possible relationship between the associated SNP and mRNA levels. HSP90B1 may have a pathophysiological role in bipolar disorder in the Japanese population, though further study will be needed to understand the underlying functional mechanisms.

Introduction
Although the contribution of genetic factors to bipolar disorder has been evidenced by family, twin and adoption studies, the genetic risk factors for the illness are still controversial (Kato 2007). We previously suggested that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response signaling is one of the candidate cascades that could be related to pathology of the illness (Kakiuchi et al 2003, 2005, 2006).
ER is a protein folding system. When unfolded proteins accumulate in ER, which could occur for a number of reasons, the ER stress response begins. ER stress response consists of four signaling cascades: (1) induction of ER chaperone such as HSPA5 (also named as GRP78 or BiP), HSP90B1 (GRP94 or gp96), CALR (Calreticulin), etc., which promotes the folding of unfolded proteins, (2) inhibition of protein synthesis, (3) induction of an ER-associated degradation pathway, which promotes the processing of unfolded proteins, and (4) induction of apoptosis when this system cannot process the unfolded proteins (Schroder and Kaufman 2005; Yoshida 2004).
When ER chaperones are consumed to fold unfolded proteins, HSPA5 is dissociated from ATF6 protein on the ER membrane, which causes cleavage of ATF6. Cleaved ATF6 protein induces the expression of ER chaperones and XBP1. In parallel, dissociation of HSPA5 from IRE1 protein on the ER membrane causes dimerization of IRE1, which splices XBP1 mRNA. The spliced XBP1 mRNA encodes an active form of XBP1 that strongly induces the expression of target genes such as ER chaperones (Yoshida 2004).
Several lines of evidence have suggested that ER stress related genes are involved in the pathophysiology of affective illness including bipolar disorder. The first evidence was detection of ER chaperones such as HSPA5, HSP90B1 and CALR as target genes of a mood stabilizer, valproate, using differential display (Wang et al. 1999). Subsequently, increased expression of ER chaperones in the temporal cortex of depressed subjects who died by suicide was reported (Bown et al. 2000). One microarray study using postmortem brain samples showed altered expression of HSP90B1 (gp96) in the bipolar disorder patients (Jurata et al. 2004). The anti-malarial drug mefloquine, which is known to cause psychiatric symptoms including bipolar disorder in susceptible individuals (Even et al. 2001), is reported to induce ER stress in rat neurons (Dow et al. 2003, 2005). Methamphetamine (MAP), a psychostimulant causing a manic state, is known to induce ER chaperone genes in the mouse brain (Jayanthi et al. 2004). Foot shock stress or increase of serotonergic neurotransmission by the treatment with 5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan and clorgyline caused enhancement of XBP1 splicing in rats (Toda et al. 2006). Two common mood stabilizers, valproate and lithium, have neuroprotective effects by inducing ER chaperones (Hiroi et al. 2005; Kim et al. 2005; Wang et al. 2003). Valproate also enhanced the ER stress response to thapsigargin (Kakiuchi et al. 2003).
We previously showed by DNA microarray analysis that XBP1 and HSPA5 are down-regulated in the lymphoblastoid (LB) cells of monozygotic twins with bipolar disorder compared with healthy co-twins (Kakiuchi et al. 2003). Induction of XBP1 and HSPA5 mRNA by thapsigargin was reduced in the patients’ cell lines. Recently, So et al. (2007) also reported that induction of XBP1 and CHOP by thapsigargin and tunicamycin was attenuated in the lymphoblastoid cells derived from patients with bipolar disorder. Although we also reported that a functional polymorphism of XBP1 was associated with bipolar disorder, the genetic association was not replicated in Caucasian samples and Taiwanese samples (Cichon et al. 2004; Hou et al. 2004). We further performed a genetic association study of HSPA5 and demonstrated nominal association on rs16927997 in the Japanese population (Kakiuchi et al. 2005). However, the association was not replicated in an independent sample set in that study and no association was found in NIMH trio samples. The other ER stress related genes ATF4/ATF5 were not found to be associated with bipolar disorder (Kakiuchi et al. 2007). Thus, association of the ER stress related genes with bipolar disorder is still controversial.
In this study, we investigated a potential genetic association of HSP90B1, the other ER chaperone gene, with bipolar disorder. HSP90B1 expression is induced by treatment with valproate and lithium (Shao et al. 2006) and its expression is altered in the postmortem brain of bipolar disorder patients (Bown et al. 2000). The HSP90B1 gene is located on 12q23.3. Many studies have shown the significant linkage of 12q23-24 with bipolar disorder (Curtis et al. 2003; Dawson et al. 1995; Detera-Wadleigh et al. 1999; Ekholm et al. 2003; Ewald et al. 1998; Green et al. 2005; Maziade et al. 2005; Morissette et al. 1999). We also performed expression analysis in LB cells derived from patients and controls.
Materials and methods
Subjects
For the case control study in the Japanese population, a total of 449 patients with bipolar disorder (50.2 ± 13.4 years old, 216 males and 233 females, 318 with bipolar I disorder, 126 with bipolar II disorder and 5 with schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type) and 543 controls (43.4 ± 15.0 years old, 269 males and 274 females) were analyzed. These samples are similar to those previously described and included two independently collected sample sets (Kakiuchi et al. 2005). One set consisted of samples that were not age- and sex-matched (MDMD samples), including 212 patients with bipolar disorder (49.0 ± 13.5 years old, 87 males and 125 females, 152 with bipolar I and 60 with bipolar II disorder) and 304 controls (37.1 ± 14.8 years old, 149 males and 155 females). The other set was age- and sex-matched samples (“MPS samples”), which included 237 patients with bipolar disorder (51.2 ± 13.2 years old, 129 males and 108 females, 166 with bipolar I, 66 with bipolar II, and 5 with schizoaffective disorder bipolar type) and 239 controls (51.5 ± 10.7 years old, 120 males and 119 females). To test the specificity of the findings, 227 patients with schizophrenia (46.0 ± 14.9 years old, 130 males and 97 females) were also examined. They were diagnosed according to the DSM-IV criteria (American Psychiatric Association) by the consensus of at least two psychiatrists. Structured interviews were not used for the diagnosis, except for use of a structured interview, the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I.) (Sheehan et al. 1998), for recently recruited 17 patients. Controls were selected from students, nurses, office workers, and doctors in participating institutes, and their friends. A senior psychiatrist, one of authors, interviewed them and they did not have major mental disorders.
In Japanese, no significant population stratification has been repeatedly reported in several studies including a part of our samples (Arinami et al. 2005; Kakiuchi et al. 2003; Yamada et al. 2004). For the transmission disequilibrium test, we analyzed a total of 238 trio samples from NIMH Genetics Initiative Pedigrees. Only one trio was obtained from one family. The criteria, by which the trio was selected from a pedigree, were as follows: (1) DNA is available for parents and the proband, (2) if multiple complete trios were found in one pedigree, the trio with a younger generation was selected, and (3) if multiple trios were available in one generation, an elder sibling was selected as the proband. Data and biomaterials of the NIMH pedigrees were collected in four projects that participated in the NIMH Bipolar Disorder Genetics Initiative. From 1991 to 1998, the Principal Investigators and Co-Investigators were: Indiana University, Indianapolis, IN, U01 MH46282, J. Nurnberger, M. Miller, and E. Bowman; Washington University, St. Louis, MO, U01 MH46280, T. Reich, A. Goate, and J. Rice; Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD U01 MH46274, J. R. DePaulo, Jr., S. Simpson, and C. Stine; NIMH Intramural Research Program, Clinical Neurogenetics Branch, Bethesda, MD, E. Gershon, D. Kazuba, and E. Maxwell. In these pedigrees, linkage with 12q23-q24 was reported (Detera-Wadleigh et al. 1999). For the mRNA expression analysis, we examined the mRNA expression level of HSP90B1 in LB cells derived from 23 patients (51.3 ± 11.9 years old, 16 males and 7 females) and 19 controls (49.0 ± 13.1 years old, 12 males and 7 females). For the Southern blotting analysis, we used genomic DNA derived from LB cells of 53 patients who were also included in the Japanese case-control analysis. Written informed consent was obtained from all subjects. The Ethics Committees of the Brain Science Institute (RIKEN) and participating institutes approved the study.
Genetic association studies
In total, seven SNPs (rs1165678, rs1165681, rs1165687, rs1882019, rs17034977, rs703657 and rs2293618) were selected according to the LD Map Database on SNPbrowser™ of Applied Biosystems (Applied Biosystems; Foster city, CA, USA) (Fig. 1). These SNPs were selected because their TaqMan probes were commercially available and they are polymorphic in Japanese. Based on the results obtained, we genotyped 4 additional SNPs (rs1165670, rs2070908, rs6615 and rs3794241). They were selected from the database because they have similar frequency and are supposed to be linked with rs17034977. Genotyping was performed using commercially available TaqMan probes and ABI7900HT according to the protocol recommended by the manufacturer (Applied Biosystems). Assessment of linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns by the standardized disequilibrium coefficient (D′) and squared correlation coefficient (r 2), analysis of haplotypic distribution and frequencies, and haplotype TDT analysis were performed using the COCAPHASE and TDTPHASE programs (http://www.portal.litbio.org/Registered/Option/unphased.html).
Sequencing
To identify the possible functional polymorphisms that are linked to the haplotype associated with bipolar disorder, we sequenced the upstream region, 5′-untraslated region (UTR), exon14, exon17 and exon18, in which the existence of missense polymorphisms has been shown in UCSC Human Genome Browser, March 2006 (http://www.genome.ucsc.edu/), and 3′-UTR of HSP90B1 in 44 patients with bipolar disorder. We also sequenced around the highly conserved region with Evi12. Primer sequences are as follows: promotor region and 5′-UTR, forward 5′-CTGACCAATCGGAAGGAG and reverse 5′-ATCACTCACCGAAGGTCA; exon14, forward 5′-GACAGTTGAAAGACAATTGCTC and reverse 5′-CGTAAACTTGTTGTCTACCT; exon17, forward 5′-GAAAGAATGCTTCGCCTCAG and reverse 5′-ACTCTGTCCTAACTTTGCCAGAAC; exon18 and 3′-UTR, forward 5′-CATGCACAAACCTGTGAG and reverse 5′-TCAGCCAAGTATTAGGTAGT; around Evi12, forward 5′-GCACATATCTCTACTGTAATCAGAACGAG and reverse 5′-CCTGGGGTTTCGTTGGAAGTG.
Quantification of mRNA levels
We examined the mRNA expression level of HSP90B1 in LB cells. We transformed lymphocytes from peripheral blood by Epstein–Barr virus and cultured LB cells in the medium of RPMI1640 (Sigma; Saint Louis, Missouri, USA) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) as the same methods described previously (Kato et al. 2003). Then, LB cells were collected into TRIZOL reagents (Invitrogen; San Diego, CA, USA). Total RNA was extracted and single strand cDNA was synthesized using oligo (dT) primer and SuperScript II reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen) by the same methods described previously (Kakiuchi et al. 2003). For the quantification of mRNA levels, real-time quantitative PCR using TaqMan chemistry was performed according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Applied Biosystems). For quantitative PCR, ABI7900HT was used and the relative ratios to GAPDH were calculated. The experiments were performed in quadliplicate. Primer and probe mixture of HSP90B1 and GAPDH was obtained from assay-on-demand products (Applied Biosystems). T test was used for comparison of the expression levels between controls and patients in LB cells.
Southern blotting
Southern blotting analysis was performed to examine the insertion/deletion mutations around the HSP90B1 gene. Ten micrograms of genomic DNA derived from LB cells was digested by EcoRV (Takara; Otsu, Shiga, Japan) and run on a 0.8% agarose gel. After transferring to nylon membrane, hybridization was performed using two kinds of digoxigenin-labeled probes. Probes were made as follows. PCR-products were cloned into pCR-2.1-TOPO Vector (Invitrogen), and then internally labeled with digoxigenin using a PCR DIG Probe Synthesis Kit (Roche, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Primers are as follows: forward, ATGGGACCTGACCCAAGT and reverse, GTAATGTCCCACACAATTTAGGAG, which detect 4642 bp fragments on the upstream region of HSP90B1 (chromosome 12, 102839756–102844427, UCSC Human Genome Browser, March 2006 Assembly); forward, CACGAATCCTCATTGGGT and reverse, CAGTTAGATGATGTTGCTCTCT, which detect 6050 bp fragments (chromosome 12, 102844428–102850477). Hybridization of the probes was detected by LAS-3000 luminoimage analyzer (Fujifilm; Tokyo, Japan) using a part of DIG High Prime DNA Labeling and Detection Starter Kit II (Roche).
Statistical analysis
For statistical analysis, Chi-square test and Mann–Whitney U test were used. The standardized disequilibrium coefficient (D′) and squared correlation coefficient (r 2) was calculated using the COCAPHASE program. The standardized disequilibrium coefficient (D′) and squared correlation coefficient (r 2) in the trio samples was calculated using the TDTPHASE program. For the association analysis, P values obtained by the Chi-square test before the Bonferroni correction were shown.
Results
Case control study for bipolar disorder in Japanese samples
The structure of HSP90B1 is shown in Fig. 1. The results of association analysis of single SNPs are shown in Table 1. rs17034977 was significantly associated with bipolar disorder in both sample sets, “MDMD samples” and “MPS samples”, although they are no more significant after the Bonferroni correction. The allelic association of bipolar disorder with rs17034977 was statistically significant even after the Bonferroni correction in the combined samples (P = 0.005 for genotype and P = 0.001 for allele. After Bonferroni correction considering seven markers and two comparisons, P = 0.07 and P = 0.014, respectively). There were no significant relationship between lithium response and the rs17034977 genotypes in the patients whose clinical information on lithium response was available (data not shown).
Because only one SNP was associated with bipolar disorder in a case control study in Japanese, we genotyped four additional SNPs (rs1165670, rs2070908, rs6615 and rs3794241) which have similar frequency and are supposed to be linked with rs17034977. None of these SNPs (SNPs a1–a4) were significantly associated with bipolar disorder (Table 1). Linkage disequilibrium by the D′ and r 2 in the control subjects is shown in Fig. 2. Because SNPs 3–7 are in the haploptype block, we performed the haplotype analysis of SNPs 3–7 (Table 2). There are three haplotypes, CAATT, CGAAC, and CGCTT, of which, CGCTT was significantly associated with bipolar disorder (global significance by random permutation test [10,000 times] using COCAPHASE program was P = 0.0026). This haplptype is determined by the SNP5, and thus SNP5 can be regarded as the tag SNP in this haplotype block.
TDT analysis for bipolar disorder in NIMH trios
We examined the association in other ethnicities by TDT analysis of NIMH bipolar trio samples, which are mainly derived from Caucasians. No significant over–transmission was observed in any SNPs (Table 3). rs17034977 was not significantly associated. Linkage disequilibrium by the D′ and r 2 in the transmitted allele is shown in Fig. 3.
Case control study for schizophrenia in Japanese samples
We further performed association analysis of the HSP90B1 locus for schizophrenia in Japanese samples because schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are known to share a common genetic background. We genotyped six of the SNPs (SNP1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7). The genotype and allele frequencies were compared with the total Japanese controls used for the analysis of bipolar disorder. No significant association was observed in single SNPs (Table 1). However, the result should be treated with caution, because there was a significant difference of gender between patients with schizophrenia and controls (P < 0.05).
HSP90B1 mRNA levels in lymphoblastoid cells
We examined the mRNA expression level of HSP90B1 in LB cells derived from 22 bipolar disorder patients and 19 controls. There were no statistically significant differences between controls and patients in relative expression levels of HSP90B1 to GAPDH in the cells (P = 0.468, Mann–Whitney U test; Fig. 4).
The carrier of C allele of SNP5 (rs17034977) had significantly lower expression levels of HSP90B1 (n = 25, 0.029 ± 0.008, mean ± SD) compared with those carrying homozygous A alleles (n = 17, 0.036 ± 0.009, P = 0.035, Mann–Whitney U test; Fig. 5).
Search for possible functional polymorphisms
We tried to identify the functional SNPs linking to the haplotype responsible for the association with bipolar disorder and the alteration of HSP90B1 expression level. Public databases were searched and 44 DNA samples of bipolar disorder patients were sequenced. Putative functional polymorphisms, such as variation within the promoter region, polymorphisms altering amino acid sequence, and those in untranslated regions (UTR), were searched for. In the non-coding region immediately upstream of the HSP90B1 gene, there is a conserved region. This region corresponds to the common virus integration site Evi12, the target of Cas-Br-M murine leukemia virus (Valk et al. 1999; van den Akker et al. 2005) (Fig. 1). This region was also sequenced. In the database of UCSC Human Genome Browser, March 2006 (http://www.genome.ucsc.edu/), a total of 13 SNPs were suggested to exist in the 500-bp upstream region (rs3216180, rs17034921, rs2722187, rs2070908), 5′-UTR (rs17797090), 3′-UTR (rs1051185, rs11547719, rs2307842), or as missense polymorphisms in exon14 (rs3209749), exon17 (rs17034989, rs17159034, rs3037197) and exon18 (rs11547722) of HSP90B1. In the conserved region, there were two SNPs (rs17034917 and rs17034919).
In the 44 samples, rs2722187, rs17797090, rs17034989, rs17159034, rs11547722, rs1051185, rs11547719, rs2307842 and rs3209749 were not polymorphic. rs3216180 (mainly linked with haplotype 1 [CAATT]), rs17034921 (mainly linked with haplotype 1), rs2070908 (linked with rs1165681) and rs3037197 (mostly linked with rs1882019) were polymorphic but not linked to haplotype 3 [CGCTT]. rs17034917 was not polymorphic and rs17034919 was linked with rs17034921, but not linked with haplotype 3.
To rule out a possibility of large deletion or insertion affecting transcriptional activity, the upstream region spanning about 10 kb of HSP90B1 gene was examined by Southern blotting. We did not observe an extra band, suggesting the insertion or deletion in the DNA of 53 patients with bipolar disorder derived from lymphoblastoid cells (data not shown).
Discussion
In this study, we showed the association of a SNP within the HSP90B1 locus (SNP5, rs17034977) with bipolar disorder in a Japanese population. No significant association was observed in NIMH bipolar disorder trio samples and Japanese schizophrenia samples. We examined the mRNA expression levels of HSP90B1. There was no significant difference between controls and patients. The C allele of SNP5 (rs17034977) was significantly associated with lower expression levels of HSP90B1.
Although we searched for functional SNPs responsible for the association, no SNPs linked with the associated haplotype was identified. We did not find any deletion or insertion affecting the restriction fragment length examined by the Southern blot analysis in the upstream region. There is a conserved sequence in the upstream region of HSP90B1, corresponding to the common virus integration site Evi12, the target of Cas–Br–M murine leukemia virus in mice (van den Akker et al. 2005). In the case of mice, integration of retrovirus was postulated to affect the expression level of HSP90B1 (Valk et al. 1999; van den Akker et al. 2005). There has been no evidence that supports the integration of retrovirus in this site in humans, and the present results also excluded such a possibility. Although the results of haplotype analysis, association analysis, mutation search, and mRNA analysis suggest that SNP5 itself might be important, it is still not known whether SNP5 itself affects the mRNA levels. Further studies will be needed to identify the genetic polymorphism affecting the mRNA levels.
Stratification analysis in Japanese samples including the part of the present samples did not show evidence suggesting the existence of population stratification (Yamada et al. 2004). Thus, it is unlikely that the observed difference is the artifact due to population stratification. However, it is possible that some control subjects might actually have bipolar disorder but have reported themselves as healthy, because patients with bipolar disorder often do not have insight into the illness. This might have confounded the results.
Lack of association in NIMH samples might suggest that the association between the SNP5 and bipolar disorder is ethnicity dependent. Indeed, it was reported that many associations between SNPs and expression levels were ethnicity dependent (Stranger et al. 2007).
A possibility that SNP5 is also associated with schizophrenia cannot be ruled out, because a similar tendency of association was observed (P = 0.09). This should be tested in larger samples.
Although the C allele of SNP5, a protective SNP, was associated with significantly lower mRNA levels of HSP90B1, the HSP90B1 mRNA levels in lymphoblastoid cells did not show a significant difference between controls and patients. Although the possible effects of medication cannot be totally ruled out, such effect should be minimized because we cultured the lymphoblastoid cells at least for 1 month in culture media free from psychotropic drugs. It is not known how lower expression leves of HSP90B1 reduce a risk for bipolar disorder in Japanese. HSP90B1, or GRP94, is an ER chaperone which binds to various proteins and peptides in a non-specific manner (Argon and Simen 1999). It also serves as a major Ca2+ buffer of the ER (Nigam et al. 1994). Overexpression of GRP94 is reported to protect the cells from death (Bando et al. 2004). Thus, the protective effect of the allele reducing the expression level of HSP90B1 against bipolar disorder is apparently contradictory to a hypotheseis that vulnerability to cell death may play a role in the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder (Manji and Duman 2001). However, it is not known whether gene expression in lymphoblastoid cells reflects the alteration in the brain. Transcriptional regulation may differ between lymphoblastoid cells and neuronal cells. Thus, it is too premature to assume that subjects carrying SNP5 have lower expression levels of HSP90B1 in neuronal cells.
In conclusion, we found an association of rs17034977 in HSP90B1 with bipolar disorder in a Japanese population and suggested that the alteration of mRNA expression by this SNP could be an underlying mechanism for bipolar disorder.
