De novo loss-of-function mutations were identified in 12 individuals with ASD and zero controls, accounting for a highly significant association. Small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of CHD8 in human neural progenitor cells followed by RNA sequencing revealed that CHD8 insufficiency results in altered expression of 1715 genes, including both protein-coding and noncoding RNAs. Among the 10 most changed transcripts, 4 (40%) were noncoding RNAs. The transcriptional changes among protein-coding genes involved a highly interconnected network of genes that are enriched in neuronal development and in previously identified ASD candidate genes. These results suggest that CHD8 insufficiency may be a central hub in neuronal development and ASD risk.","datePublished":"2015-05-19T00:00:00Z","dateModified":"2015-05-19T00:00:00Z","pageStart":"e568","pageEnd":"e568","license":"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","sameAs":"https://doi.org/10.1038/tp.2015.62","keywords":["Autism

id="Abs1-content"><p>Chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 8 (<i>CHD8</i>) was identified as a leading autism spectrum disorder (ASD) candidate gene by whole-exome sequencing and subsequent targeted-sequencing studies. <i>De novo</i> loss-of-function mutations were identified in 12 individuals with ASD and zero controls, accounting for a highly significant association. Small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of <i>CHD8</i> in human neural progenitor cells followed by RNA sequencing revealed that CHD8 insufficiency results in altered expression of 1715 genes, including both protein-coding and noncoding RNAs. Among the 10 most changed transcripts, 4 (40%) were noncoding RNAs. The transcriptional changes among protein-coding genes involved a highly interconnected network of genes that are enriched in neuronal development and in previously identified ASD candidate genes. These results suggest that CHD8 insufficiency may be a central hub in neuronal development and ASD risk.</p></div></div></section> <section aria-labelledby="inline-recommendations" data-title="Inline Recommendations" class="c-article-recommendations" data-track-component="inline-recommendations"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-title" id="inline-recommendations">Similar content being viewed by others</h3> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41588-022-01104-0/MediaObjects/41588_2022_1104_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41588-022-01104-0?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_1" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 1" data-track-label="10.1038/s41588-022-01104-0">Rare coding variation provides insight into the genetic architecture and phenotypic context of autism </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">18 August 2022</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41598-020-70656-0/MediaObjects/41598_2020_70656_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-70656-0?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_2" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 2" data-track-label="10.1038/s41598-020-70656-0">Homozygous deletions implicate non-coding epigenetic marks in Autism spectrum disorder </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__access-type">Open access</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">20 August 2020</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1038%2Fs41380-024-02806-z/MediaObjects/41380_2024_2806_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-024-02806-z?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_3" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 3" data-track-label="10.1038/s41380-024-02806-z">Monoallelic loss-of-function variants in <i>GSK3B</i> lead to autism and developmental delay </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">29 October 2024</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </section> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];

To emulate the potential effects of the identified LoF mutations, we performed small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of <i>CHD8</i> followed by genome-wide transcriptional profiling through RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Here, we show that knockdown of <i>CHD8</i> in SK-N-SH human neural progenitor cells results in altered expression of a highly interconnected network of genes, which are enriched in several processes essential for neuronal development. Remarkably, numerous previously identified ASD candidate genes are also differentially expressed in response to knockdown of <i>CHD8</i>, suggesting a convergence of multiple genes contributing to ASD onset. The data presented here point toward a role of <i>CHD8</i> in maintaining the active transcription of neural-specific genes and begins to elucidate the potential contributions of decreased functional CHD8 to the pathogenesis of ASD.</p></div></div></section><section data-title="Materials and methods"><div class="c-article-section" id="Sec2-section"><h2 class="c-article-section__title js-section-title js-c-reading-companion-sections-item" id="Sec2">Materials and methods</h2><div class="c-article-section__content" id="Sec2-content"><h3 class="c-article__sub-heading" id="Sec3">Cell culture</h3><p>To measure gene expression in human neural progenitor cells, SK-N-SH cells (American Type Culture Collection; Manassas, VA, USA) were maintained in minimal essential medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, non-essential amino acids, and 1.5 g l<sup>−1</sup> sodium bicarbonate in 183-cm flasks at 37 °C and 5% CO<sub>2</sub>.</p><h3 class="c-article__sub-heading" id="Sec4">siRNA transfection</h3><p>To determine the impact of CHD8 knockdown on gene expression in human neural progenitor cells, SK-N-SH cells were seeded into six-well 10-cm plates and grown for 24 h (~70% confluency) before transfection.
