説明
<jats:sec> <jats:title>Background and Purpose—</jats:title> <jats:p>The rupture of intracranial aneurysm (IA) causes subarachnoid hemorrhage associated with high morbidity and mortality. We compared gene expression profiles in aneurysmal domes between unruptured IAs and ruptured IAs (RIAs) to elucidate biological mechanisms predisposing to the rupture of IA.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods—</jats:title> <jats:p>We determined gene expression levels of 8 RIAs, 5 unruptured IAs, and 10 superficial temporal arteries with the Agilent microarrays. To explore biological heterogeneity of IAs, we classified the samples into subgroups showing similar gene expression patterns, using clustering methods.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Results—</jats:title> <jats:p> The clustering analysis identified 4 groups: superficial temporal arteries and unruptured IAs were aggregated into their own clusters, whereas RIAs segregated into 2 distinct subgroups (early and late RIAs). Comparing gene expression levels between early RIAs and unruptured IAs, we identified 430 upregulated and 617 downregulated genes in early RIAs. The upregulated genes were associated with inflammatory and immune responses and phagocytosis including S100/calgranulin genes ( <jats:italic>S100A8</jats:italic> , <jats:italic>S100A9</jats:italic> , and <jats:italic>S100A12</jats:italic> ). The downregulated genes suggest mechanical weakness of aneurysm walls. The expressions of Krüppel-like family of transcription factors ( <jats:italic>KLF2</jats:italic> , <jats:italic>KLF12</jats:italic> , and <jats:italic>KLF15</jats:italic> ), which were anti-inflammatory regulators, and <jats:italic>CDKN2A</jats:italic> , which was located on chromosome 9p21 that was the most consistently replicated locus in genome-wide association studies of IA, were also downregulated. </jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusions—</jats:title> <jats:p>We demonstrate that gene expression patterns of RIAs were different according to the age of patients. The results suggest that macrophage-mediated inflammation is a key biological pathway for IA rupture. The identified genes can be good candidates for molecular markers of rupture-prone IAs and therapeutic targets.</jats:p> </jats:sec>
