CIDR Whole Exome Sequencing in Joubert Syndrome

ABSTRACT:

The purpose of this study is to identify new genetic causes of neurodevelopmental diseases (NDDs) in the Joubert syndrome (JS) spectrum. Joubert syndrome is a recessive disease characterized by cerebellar vermis hypoplasia. Our currently funded NINDS award entitled "Molecular characterization of Joubert syndrome" seeks to identify new genetic causes through a variety of molecular strategies. Although our previous strategies involved whole genome SNP-scans, followed by candidate gene sequencing to arrive at identification of new JS causes, we have recently moved to Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) as a highly efficient methodology that is optimized for recessive disease. In this pilot project, CIDR has sequenced DNA on probands from 20 inbred families with JS spectrum disorders in which known causes have been excluded, that have not previously undergone genome-wide SNP scans. These paired end reads will be subject to our established bioinformatics pipeline including HOMOZGYOSITY, SNP and INDEL callers in our lab to identify potentially deleterious sequence changes (PDSC). This is followed by analysis to include testing each PDSC for segregation in the whole pedigree, for occurrence in a ethnically-matched cohort, as well as a defined patient cohort patients, in order to validate new NDD genes.

Transcriptional analysis of whole blood in patients with auto-inflammatory disorders

Project description:HOIL1 deficient disease is a new early onset fatal autosomal recessive human disorder charaterized by chronic auto-inflammation, recurrent invasive bacterial infections and progressive muscular amylopectinosis. We studied the transcriptional profiles of whole blood from one HOIL dificient patient and other auto-inflammatory patients, including CINCA, Muckle-Wells syndrome and MVK deficiency. Whole blood was collected in Tempus tubes from 41 healthy children and patients with CINCA (2), MWS (5), MVK deficiency (2) and HOIL deficiency (1) diseases. RNA was extracted and globin reduced. Labeled cRNA was hybridized to Illumina Human HT-12 Beadchips.

Autism-like syndrome is induced in mice by pharmacological suppression of BET proteins

Project description:Studies investigating the causes of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) point to genetic as well as epigenetic mechanisms of the disease. Identification of epigenetic processes that contribute to ASD development and progression is of major importance and may lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Here we identify the bromodomain and extra-terminal domain containing transcriptional regulators (BETs) as epigenetic drivers of an ASD-like disorder in mice. We found that the pharmacological suppression of the BET proteins by a novel, highly selective and brain-permeable inhibitor, I-BET858, leads to selective suppression of neuronal gene expression followed by the development of an autism-like syndrome in mice. Many of the I-BET858 affected genes have been linked to ASD in humans thus suggesting the key role of the BET-controlled gene network in ASD. Our studies also suggest that environmental factors controlling BET proteins or their target genes may contribute to the epigenetic mechanism of ASD. There are 24 total samples. There are two timepoints, 2 and 12 hours. Triplicates were performed for each treatment. Control samples were prepared by treating with DMSO for each of the timepoints.

Expanding the phenotype of NUP85 mutations beyond nephrotic syndrome to Primary autosomal recessive microcephaly and Seckel syndrome spectrum disoders

Project description:Primary autosomal recessive microcepahly and Seckel syndrome spectrum disodrers (MCPH-SCKS) include a heterogenous group of autosomal recessive inherited diseases characterized by primary (congenital) microcephaly, the absence of visceral abnormalities and a variable degree of cognitive impairment, short stature and facial dysmorphism. Recently, biallelic mutations in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) component nucleoporin 85 gene (NUP85) were reported to cause steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). Here we report that homozygous mutations in NUP85 can also cause MCPH-SCKS without SRNS and thereby expand the phenotypic spectrum of NUP85-linked diseases. Structural analysis predicts the identified NUP85 mutation to have neither an effect on NPC architecture nor on its interaction with other NUPs. We show that mutant NUP85 is, however, associated with a reduced number of NPCs, abnormal mitotic spindle morphology, altered expression levels of protein involved in of cytoskeletal dynamics and decreased cell viability in patient cells. These altered biological processes can explain the disease-causative nature of the mutant NUP85 associated with the human phenotype. Our results also indicates the link of common cellular mechanism involved in the MCPH-SCKS spectrum disorders and NUP85-associated diseases. In addition to the previous studies, our results broadened the phenotype spectrum of NUP85-specific human disease and emphasizes a role of NUP85 in the development of the nervous system.

Mouse IMCD3 cell lines knocked-down for VPS33B, VIPAR and PLOD3

Project description:Mouse IMCD3 cell lines knocked-down for VPS33B, VIPAR and PLOD3 are used as models of ARC syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder cause by mutations in VPS33B or VIPAR. Previous work has shown that ARC syndrome causes epithelial cell polarisation defectes and mislocalisation of membrane proteins, so polarised IMCD3 cells were used as an experimental model. Affymetrix arrays were used to characterise the changes to the transcriptome when protein levels of VPS33B, VIPAR and PLOD3 are reduced. mouse IMCD-3 cell lines, 15 samples in total, three biological repeats of each of: wild type, control shRNA, VPS33B shRNA, VIPAR shRNA, PLOD3 shRNA

Multidimensional analysis and therapeutic development using patient iPSC-derived disease models of Wolfram syndrome

Project description:Wolfram syndrome is a rare genetic disorder largely caused by pathogenic variants in the WFS1 gene and manifested by diabetes mellitus, optic nerve atrophy, and progressive neurodegeneration. Recent genetic and clinical findings have revealed Wolfram syndrome as a spectrum disorder. Therefore, a genotype-phenotype correlation analysis is needed for diagnosis and therapeutic development. Here, we focus on the WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant which is highly prevalent in the Ashkenazi-Jewish population. Clinical investigation indicates that subjects carrying the homozygous WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant show mild forms of Wolfram syndrome phenotypes. Expression of WFS1 p.R558C is more stable compared to the other known recessive pathogenic variants associated with Wolfram syndrome. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived islets (SC-islets) homozygous for WFS1 c.1672C>T variant recapitulate genotype-related Wolfram syndrome phenotypes. Enhancing residual WFS1 function by a combination treatment of chemical chaperones mitigates detrimental effects caused by the WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant and increases insulin secretion in SC-islets. Thus, the WFS1 c.1672C>T, p.R558C variant causes a mild form of Wolfram syndrome phenotypes, which can be remitted with a combination treatment of chemical chaperones. We demonstrate that our patient iPSC-derived disease model provides a valuable platform for further genotype-phenotype analysis and therapeutic development for Wolfram syndrome.
