An Investigation of Small Intestinal Carcinoid Carcinoma in Families

ABSTRACT: This proposed pilot study is to conduct detailed interviews into the medical, environmental, and family histories The second phase of this study project is to and to collect blood specimen to obtain DNA. The Blood specimen and DNA will be processed by the Rutgers University Cell and DNA Repository (RUCDR) and stored for a second phase of this pilot. The purpose is to rule out Familial Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN 1), and succinate dehydrogenase complex, subunit D (SDHD), gene inactivation thought to be associated with different types of carcinoid cancer.

SnFFPE-Seq: towards scalable single nucleus RNA-seq of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues

Project description:Profiling cellular heterogeneity in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues is key to characterizing clinical specimens for biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug responses. Here, we optimize methods for isolating intact nuclei and single nucleus RNA-seq from FFPE tissues in the mouse brain, and demonstrate a pilot application to a human clinical specimen of lung adenocarcinoma. Our method opens the way to broad applications of snRNA-Seq to archival tissues, including clinical samples.

RNA Sequencing Analysis of a Whole Blood Transcriptome in Estonian Families with Osteogenesis Imperfecta

Project description:Purpose: The main objective of this pilot study was to compare blood transcriptional landscape of OI patients with COL1A1 pathogenic variants and their healthy relatives, in order to find out different gene expression and dysregulated molecular pathways in OI. Methods: We performed RNA sequencing analysis of the whole blood in seven individuals affected with different OI severity and their five unaffected relatives from the three families. The data was analyzed using edgeR package of R Bioconductor. Functional profiling and pathway analysis of the identified differently expressed genes was performed with g:GOSt and MinePath web-based tools. Results: We identified 114 differently expressed genes. The expression of 79 genes was up-regulated, while 35 genes were down-regulated. The functional analysis identified a presence of dysregulated interferon signaling pathways (IFI27, IFITM3, RSAD12, GBP7). Additionally, the expressions of the genes related to extracellular matrix organization, Wnt signaling, vitamin D metabolism and MAPK-ERK 1/2 pathways were also altered. Conclusions: The current pilot study successfully captured the differential expression of inflammation and bone metabolism pathways in OI patients.

High-resolution, noninvasive single-cell lineage tracing in mice and humans based on DNA methylation epimutations [LK_scMultiOmicseq; DNA methylome of single cells]

Project description:In vivo lineage tracing holds great potential to reveal fundamental principles of tissue development and homeostasis. However, lineage tracing in humans relies on DNA mutations that are extremely rare. In mice, the improved genetic labeling approach has low resolution over cell division histories. Here, we demonstrated for the first time that frequent epimutations on DNA methylation can be exploited to infer lineage histories in normal cells, enabled by our newly developed computational method MethyTree. Using both in-house and public sparse single-cell DNA methylation datasets with known lineage labels, MethyTree reconstructed lineage histories at high resolution and accuracy across different cell types, stages, and species. Applying MethyTree, we identified the first fate decision in human embryo development and pinpointed in total ~230 clones of hematopoietic stem cells in mice. Our study opens the door for high-resolution, noninvasive lineage tracing in mice, humans and beyond.
