Project description:The purpose of the current study was to use an epigenome-wide association approach (EWAS) to identify a potential DNA methylation alterations associated with obesity using twins discordant on obesity status. Buccal cells (from a cheek swab) were used as a purified marker cell for the epigenetic analysis. Analysis of differential DNA methylation regions (DMRs) was used to identify epigenetic associations with metabolic and dietary measures in obesity parameters discordant twins. An edgeR analysis provided a DMR signature with p<1e-04, but a false discovery rate analysis demonstrated a lack of significance due to low sample size and known multivariant origins of obesity.

Project description:We aimed to predict obesity risk with genetic data, specifically, obesity-associated gene expression profiles. Genetic risk score was computed. The genetic risk score was significantly correlated with BMI when an optimization algorithm was used. Linear regression and built support vector machine models predicted obesity risk using gene expression profiles and the genetic risk score with a new mathematical method.

Project description:Asialoglycoprotein receptor 1 (ASGR1), primarily expressed on hepatocytes, promotes the clearance and the degradation of glycoproteins, including lipoproteins, from the circulation. In humans, loss-of-function variants of ASGR1 are associated with a favorable metabolic profile and reduced incidence of cardiovascular diseases. The molecular mechanisms by which ASGR1 could affect the onset of metabolic syndrome and obesity are unclear. Therefore, here we investigated the contribution of ASGR1 in the development of metabolic syndrome and obesity.

Project description:Obesity is an independent risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC) although the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Dietary nutrients play a key role in both the prevention and promotion of CRC. While iron is an essential nutrient, excess iron is associated with carcinogenesis. Unlike the systemic compartment, the intestinal lumen lacks an efficient system to regulate iron. In conditions when dietary iron malabsorption and intestinal inflammation co-exist, greater luminal iron is associated with increased intestinal inflammation and a shift in the gut microbiota to more pro-inflammatory strains. However, treatments designed to reduce luminal, including diet restriction and chelation, are associated with lower intestinal inflammation and the colonization of protective gut microbes. Obesity is associated with inflammation-induced, hepcidin-mediated, iron metabolism dysfunction characterized by iron deficiency and dietary iron malabsorption. Obesity is also linked to intestinal inflammation. Currently, there is a fundamental gap in understanding how altered iron metabolism impacts CRC risk in obesity.
The investigator’s objective is to conduct a crossover controlled feeding trial of: 1) a "Typical American" diet with "high" heme/non-heme iron", 2) a "Typical American" diet with "low" iron, and 3) a Mediterranean diet with "high" non heme iron and examine effects on colonic and systemic inflammation and the gut microbiome.

Project description:Background:Staphylococcus aureus has a high prevalence in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients and is suggested to play a more etiopathogenic role in CRS patients with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), a severe form of the CRS spectrum with poorer surgical outcomes. We performed a microbial genome-wide association study (mGWAS) to investigate whether S. aureus isolates from CRS patients have particular genetic markers associated with CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) or CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). Methods:Whole genome sequencing was performed on S. aureus isolates collected from 28 CRSsNP and 30 CRSwNP patients. A mGWAS approach was employed using large-scale comparative genomics to identify genetic variation within our dataset. Results:Considerable genetic variation was observed, with >?90,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) sites identified. There was little correlation with CRS subtype based on SNPs and Insertion/Delection (Indels). One indel was found to significantly correlate with CRSwNP and occurred in the promoter region of a bacitracin transport system ATP-binding protein. Additionally, two variants of the highly variable superantigen-like (SSL) proteins were found to significantly correlate with each CRS phenotype. No significant association with other virulence or antibiotic resistance genes were observed, consistent with previous studies. Conclusion:To our knowledge this study is the first to use mGWAS to investigate the contribution of microbial genetic variation to CRS presentations. Utilising the most comprehensive genome-wide analysis methods available, our results suggest that CRS phenotype may be influenced by genetic factors other than specific virulence mechanisms within the S. aureus genome.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality among adults in developed countries. The discovery of the most common genetic alterations as well as the development of organoids models of pancreatic cancer have provided insight into the fundamental pathways driving the progression from normal cell, to non-invasive precursor lesion, to widely metastatic disease, offering new opportunities for the discovery of key activated pathways along cancer progression. Obesity is one of the most serious public health challenges of the 21st century. Several epidemiological studies have shown the positive association between obesity and cancer-related morbidity/mortality, as well as poor prognosis and poorer treatment outcome. Despite strong evidence indicates a link between obesity and cancer incidence, the molecular basis of the initiating events remains largely elusive. This is mainly due to the lack of an accurate and reliable model of pancreatic carcinogenesis that mimics human obesity-associated PDAC, making data interpretation difficult and often confusing. Here we propose, to our knowledge, the best suitable and manageable preclinical tool, based on next-generation cell culture models, to study the effects of obesity on pancreatic carcinogenesis. Therefore we tracked the effects of obesity on the natural evolution of PDAC in a genetically-defined transplantable model of syngeneic murine pancreatic preneoplastic lesion (mP) and tumor (mT) derived organoids that recapitulates the progression of human disease from early preinvasive lesions to metastatic disease. Our models indicated that both genetic- and diet-induced obesity promoted incidence engraftment rate and growth of both preneoplastic and neoplastic organoids, favoring pancreatic cancer progression and distant metastases dissemination. Our obesity models of carcinogenesis mimic the evolution of human pancreatic cancer pathology, promoting carcinogenesis and concomitant accumulation of a myeloid infiltrate. These changes in cancer immune infiltrate were also associated to a specific pattern of anti-inflammatory Th2 signature. Moreover, gene expression profile analysis revealed a change in gene expression programs that addresses cells to different pancreatic subtypes and stromal conditions. Our results suggest that organoid-derived transplants in obese mice represent a suitable system to study early step of carcinogenesis and support the hypothesis that inflammation induced by obesity stimulates tumor progression and metastatization during pancreatic carcinogenesis.

Project description:Obesity is linked to greater cancer incidence and mortality across multiple tumor types. In breast cancer, metastasis is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, and epidemiological studies have shown that obesity is associated with increased breast cancer metastasis to lung and liver. Using both diet-induced and genetic preclinical models of obesity, it was previously shown that obese adipose tissue systemically induces lung neutrophilia, which is associated with enhanced breast cancer metastasis to this site. Here we performed RNAseq on neutrophils isolated on the lungs from lf vs hf mice.
