Project description:Autosomal dominant polycystic liver disease (ADPLD) is caused by mutations in PRKCSH, SEC63, and LRP5, while autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by mutations in PKD1, and PKD2. Liver cyst development in these disorders is explained by somatic loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) of the wild type allele in the developing cyst. We hypothesize that we can use this mechanism to identify novel disease genes that reside in LOH regions. In this study, we aim to map abnormal genomic regions using high-density SNP microarrays to find novel polycystic liver disease genes. We collected 46 cysts from 23 patients with polycystic or sporadic hepatic cysts, and analyzed DNA from those cysts using high-resolution microarray (n=24) or Sanger sequencing (n=22). We here focused on regions of homozygosity on the autosomes (>3.0Mb), and large CNVs (>1.0Mb). We found frequent LOH in PRKCSH (22/29), and PKD1/PKD2 (2/3) cysts of patients with known heterozygous germline variants in the respective genes. In the total cohort, 12/23 patients harbored abnormalities outside of familiar areas. In individual ADPLD cases, we identified germline events: a 2q13 complex rearrangement resulting in BUB1 haploinsufficiency, a 47XXX karyotype, chromosome 9q copy number loss, and LOH on chromosome 3p. The latter region was overlapping with an LOH region identified in two other cysts. Unique germline and somatic abnormalities occur frequently in and outside of known genes underlying cysts. Each liver cyst has a unique genetic makeup. LOH driver gene BUB1 may imply germline causes of genetic instability in PLD. 24 liver cysts from 23 patients

Project description:A great percentage of patients with multiple primary cancers (MPCs) and family history of cancer are suspected to have a hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome. However, only a small proportion of these cases are explained by mutations in high-penetrance genes, suggesting the involvement of undiscovered genes in cancer predisposition. In this study, we report the molecular and clinical characterization of two unrelated patients with MPCs, a positive family history of cancer, no germline pathogenic mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2 and TP53 genes and large genomic rearrangements mapped on chromosome 7q. Genomic rearrangements were assessed with Affymetrix CytoScan HD Array platform in two unrelated patients (Patient 1 and Patient 2) with multiple primary cancers. Additionally, the mother of Patient 2 and four children (the son of Patient 1 and three children of Patient 2) were also evaluated.

Project description:To determine the pathogenesis of a patient born with congenital heart defects, who had appeared normal in prenatal screening. In routine prenatal screening, G-banding was performed to analyse the karyotypes of the family and fluorescence in situ hybridization was used to investigate the 22q11.2 deletion in the fetus. After birth, the child was found to be suffering from heart defects by transthoracic echocardiography. In the following study, sequencing was used to search for potential mutations in pivotal genes. SNP-array was employed for fine mapping of the aberrant region and quantitative real-time PCR was used to confirm the results. Furthermore, other patients with a similar phenotype were screened for the same genetic variations. To compare with a control, these variations were also assessed in the general population.

Project description:The contribution of copy number (CN)-altered genes in cervical carcinogenesis is unknown owing to a lack of correlation with gene expression. We mapped CN-altered genes in 31 cervical cancers (CCs), and investigated the expression of 21,000 genes in 55 CCs using microarrays. Biological processes associated with genes deregulated by gene dosage and the relationship between gene dosage and patient survival were investigated. CN-altered genome (CN-AG) percentages varied widely among tumors from 0% to 32.2% (mean = 8.1 ± 8.9). Tumors were classified as low (mean = 0.5 ± 0.6, n = 11), medium (mean = 5.4 ± 2.4, n = 10), or high (mean = 19.2 ± 6.6, n = 10) CN. The highest %CN-AG was found in 3q, which contributed an average of 55% of all CN alterations. Genome-wide, only 5.3% of CN-altered genes were deregulated by gene dosage; by contrast, the rate in fully duplicated 3q was twice as high. Amplification of 3q explained 23.6% of deregulated genes in whole tumors (r2 = 0.236, p = 0.006; analysis of variance), including those in 3q and other chromosomes. A total of 862 genes were deregulated exclusively in high-CN tumors, but only 22.9% were CN altered. This result suggests that the remaining genes are not deregulated directly by gene dosage but by mechanisms induced in trans by CN-altered genes. Anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C)-dependent proteasome proteolysis, glycolysis, and apoptosis were upregulated, whereas cell adhesion and angiogenesis were downregulated exclusively in high-CN tumors. The high %CN-AG and upregulated gene expression profiles of APC/C-proteasome-dependent proteolysis and glycolysis were associated with poor patient survival, although only the first 2 correlations were statistically significant (p < 0.05, log-rank test). The data suggest that inhibitors of APC/C-dependent proteasome proteolysis and glycolysis may be useful treatments in these patients. In this study 31 tumors and 25 reference controls were used for analysis of copy number alterations using the 500K microarray. The results obtained from 500K array analysis were validated in 15 of the 31 tumors with a higher density microarray (Cytoscan HD). For the analysis of gene expression 55 cervical tumors (27 of them belong to the group of 31 tumors analyzed for copy number) and 17 exocervical controls were used. Please note that the sample R397 in the CytoScanHD_Array set corresponds to the R392 sample in the other data sets (due to an error in file name).

Project description:Kallmann syndrome is a genetically heterogeneous condition and a treatable form of male infertility. Defects in KAL1 gene have been implicated in Kallmann syndrome, which can be associated with X-linked ichthyosis in contiguous gene syndromes. In order to uncover the genetic cause of two brothers with Kallmann syndrome and X-linked ichthyosis, a custom semiconductor targeted resequencing panel to detect seventeen Kallmann syndrome causal genes and STS gene was designed. Next-generation sequencing was performed using this panel in the two affected brothers and their normal parents. To validate the result, we applied CytoScan⢠HD array, quantitative real-time PCR and direct PCR electrophoresis analysis with the participants. The patients received clinical assessment, human chorionic gonadotropin treatment and follow-up for 39 months. The results showed that the two affected siblings have the same de novo deletion at Xp22.3 including exons 9-14 of KAL1 gene and entire STS gene but showed different phenotypes in some respects. The secondary sex characteristics of the patients were greatly improved after treatment. We firstly reported that a de novo homozygous deletion contribute to KS with bilateral cryptorchidism and unilateral renal agenesis or normal kidney development and developed a cost-effective and reliable semiconductor targeted resequencing panel for genetic diagnosis of Kallmann syndrome in routinely obtained samples. One of the two brothers with Kallmann syndrome and X-linked ichthyosis was analyzed for validation the results of the deletion detected by next-generation sequencing.

Project description:Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) epitomizes successful targeted therapy, with 86% of patients in the chronic phase treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) attaining remission. However, resistance to TKIs occurs during treatment, and patients with resistance to TKIs progress to the acute phase called Blast Crisis (BC), wherein the survival is restricted to 7-11 months. About 80 % of patients in BC are unresponsive to TKIs. This issue can be addressed by identifying a molecular signature which can predict resistance in CML-CP prior to treatment as well as by delineating the molecular mechanism underlying resistance. Herein, we report genomic analysis of CML patients and imatinib-resistant K562 cell line to achieve the same. Thirteen CML patients (sensitive and resistant to TKIs) and 2 BMT donors (as control) were recruited for the study. DNA was isolated from an enriched CD34+ fraction for each sample as well as from K562 cells made resistant to imatinib which provided a model system for further molecular investigations. DNA was subjected to Cytoscan HD array (Affymatrix) analysis from patient samples and cell lines. Affymetrix CytoScan™ HD array (Applied Biosystems™, Cat# 901835) chip consists of 2.6 M oligonucleotide probes across the genome, including 1953K unique non-polymorphic probes and 750K bi-allelic SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) probes. Our study identified accumulation of aberrations on chromosomes 1, 3, 7, 16 and 22 as predictive of occurrence of resistance. Further, recurrent amplification in chromosomal region 8q11.2-12.1 was detected in highly resistant K562 cells as well as CML patients. The genes present in this region were analyzed to understand molecular mechanism of imatinib resistance.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of rat liver comparing male rats with congenital hypothyrodism (CH) vs intact at adulhood. Here we studied how CH influences liver gene expression program in adulthood. Thyroid hormones are required for normal growth and development in mammals. Congenital-neonatal hypothyroidism (CH) has a profound impact on physiology but its specific influence in liver is less understood. Here we studied how CH influences liver gene expression program in adulthood. Pregnant rats were given anti-thyroid drug methimazole (MMI) from GD12 until PND30 to induce CH in male offspring. Growth defects due to CH were evident as a reduction in body weight and tail length from the second week of life. Once the MMI treatment was discontinued, feed efficiency increased in CH and this was accompanied by significant catch-up growth. On PND80, significant reduction in body mass, tail length, and circulating IGF-I remained in CH rats. On the other hand, mRNA levels of known GH targeted genes were significantly up-regulated. Serum levels of thyroid hormones, cholesterol, and triglycerides showed no significant differences. In contrast, CH rats showed significant changes in expression for hepatic genes involved in lipid metabolism with an increased transcription of PPAR and reduced expression of genes involved in fatty acids and cholesterol uptake, cellular sterol efflux, triglycerides assembly, bile acid synthesis, and lipogenesis. These changes were associated with a decrease of intrahepatic lipids. Finally, CH rats responded to hypothyroidism onset in adulthood with a reduction of serum fatty acids and hepatic cholesteryl esters, and to T3 replacement with enhanced activation of lipogenic transcriptional program. In summary, we provided in vivo evidence that neonatal hypothyroidism causes long-lasting effects on hepatic transcriptional program and tissue sensitivity to hormone treatment. This highlights the critical role that a euthyroid state during development plays on normal liver physiology in adulthood. Two conditions CH vs INTACT male rats. Biological replicates: Four independent hybridizations: 4 controls (age-matched intact rats) vs 4 CH (male rats with congenital hypothyroidism) on postnatal day 80 for a total of four arrays. One replicate per array.
