Epigenetic responses to cannabis use could underlie cannabis-related health problems. We examined the DNA-methylation profiles of long-term cannabis users in midlife, re-evaluating a set of  \n246 previously published cannabis-associated methylation markers. Data were from the Dunedin Study, a five-decade longitudinal study of a birth cohort (analytic n=787). Peripheral whole blood was drawn when the cohort was age 45, and DNA methylation was assayed using the EPIC 850K BeadChip. Analyses compared long-term cannabis users with non-users and, for a benchmark comparison, with long-term tobacco users. Results showed that long-term cannabis use was associated with sixteen of the previously published 246 cannabis-related methylation markers. All cannabis-related methylation markers were also associated with long-term tobacco use. Nonetheless, after adjusting for long-term tobacco use and other covariates, including childhood SES, family history of substance dependence, and long-term alcohol use, long-term cannabis use was robustly associated with hypomethylation of nine markers: cg05575921, cg21566642, cg03636183, cg21161138, cg01940273, cg17739917, cg05086879, cg02978227, cg23079012. Six of the nine cannabis-related markers were associated with gene expression levels, suggesting meaningful biological associations. Cannabis quitters showed less extreme DNA hypomethylation than long-term cannabis users. Long-term cannabis use could affect the epigenome similarly to tobacco use, possibly though smoke inhalation. Cannabis cessation, like tobacco cessation, may reverse altered DNA methylation.  \nAbstract citation ID: igaf122.1968  \nDNA METHYLATION PROFILES OF LONG-TERM  \nCANNABIS USERS IN MIDLIFE: AN EVALUATION OF  \nPUBLISHED MARKERS  \nMadeline Meier, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona, United States","cbCaibav6DZZ6Lgu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibav6DZZ6Lgu","pdf",533367,"English","# Introduction\n## Study Aim\n## Methods\n## Results\n## Interpretation","[{\"question\":\"What was the study’s main objective?\",\"answer\":\"To examine DNA-methylation profiles of long-term cannabis users in midlife and re-evaluate previously published cannabis-associated methylation markers.\"},{\"question\":\"Which dataset and assay were used to measure DNA methylation?\",\"answer\":\"Data came from the Dunedin Study, with DNA methylation measured from peripheral whole blood at age 45 using the EPIC 850K BeadChip.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the results show about cannabis-associated methylation markers?\",\"answer\":\"Long-term cannabis use was associated with sixteen of the 246 previously published cannabis-related markers, and after adjustment it robustly related to hypomethylation of nine specific markers.\"}]","DNA Methylation Profiles of Long-Term Cannabis Users in Midlife - An Evaluation of Published Markers | PDF",1790642070]
