Project description:Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEXS) is a late-onset disorder in which fibrillar material accumulates at abnormally high concentrations mainly in the anterior segment of the eye. PEXS is the most common cause of secondary glaucoma, which can ultimately lead to blindness and is associated with a higher risk of cataract and serious complications following different types of intraocular surgery. Although PEXS clearly has a genetic component, it remains poorly explored. In our genome-wide association study, we searched for an association of genetic variants with this disorder among older Poles with PEXS without glaucoma.

Project description:Background: Most skin-related traits have been studied in Caucasian genetic backgrounds. A comprehensive study on skin-associated genetic effects on underrepresented populations such as Vietnam is needed to fill the gaps in the field. Objectives: We aimed to develop a computational pipeline to predict the effect of genetic factors on skin traits using public data (GWAS catalogs and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from the 1000 Genomes Project-1KGP) and in-house Vietnamese data (WGS and genotyping by SNP array). Also, we compared the genetic predispositions of 25 skin-related traits of Vietnamese population to others to acquire population-specific insights regarding skin health. Results: The skin-related genetic profile of Vietnamese cohorts was similar at most to East Asian cohorts (JPT: Fst=0.036, CHB: Fst=0.031, CHS: Fst=0.027, CDX: Fst=0.025) in the population study. In addition, we identified pairs of skin traits at high risk of frequent co-occurrence (such as skin aging and wrinkles (r = 0.45, p =1.50e-5) or collagen degradation and moisturizing (r = 0.35, p = 1.1e-3)).

Project description:We use targeted bisulfite PCR and next-generation 454 sequencing of multiple amplicons to analyze the association of cis-regulated allele-specific methylation (ASM) with multiple complex disease-associated variants in a population of 82 individuals. We detect ASM at four variants implicated in complex phenotypes such as ulcerative colitis and AIDS progression disease (rs10491434), Celiac disease (rs2762051), Crohn’s disease, IgA nephropathy and early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (rs713875) and height (rs6569648). 82 samples analysed

Project description:<p>We investigated the cumulative contribution of rare, exonic genetic variants on the concentration of 1,487 metabolites and 53,714 metabolite ratios in urine by performing gene-based tests based on 226,233 variants from up to 4,864 participants of the German Chronic Kidney Disease (GCKD) study. There were 128 significant associations (53 metabolite-gene and 75 metabolite ratio-gene pairs) involving 30 unique genes, 16 of which are known to underlie recessively inherited inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs). Across the 30 genes, 47% of individuals carried at least one rare missense, stop or splice variant. The 30 genes were strongly enriched for shared high expression in liver and kidney (OR=65, p-FDR=3e-7), with hepatocytes and proximal tubule cells as driving cell types. Use of whole-exome sequencing data in the UK Biobank allowed for linking genes to diseases that could plausibly be explained by the identified metabolites. In silico constraint-based modeling of knockouts of the implicated genes in a virtual whole-body, organ-resolved metabolic human correctly predicted the observed direction of metabolite changes in urine and blood, highlighting the potential of linking population genetics to modeling to validate associations and to predict metabolic consequences of yet unknown IEMs. Our study extends the map of genes influencing urine metabolite concentrations, reveals metabolic processes and connected health outcomes, and implicates novel candidate variants and genes for IEMs.</p><p><br></p><p>Further links;</p><p><a href='https://www.gckd.org/' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'>German Chronic Kidney Disease (GCKD)</a></p>

Project description:There has been limited research on genome-wide association with physical activity (PA). This study ascertained genetic associations between PA and 344,893 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in 8842 Korean samples. PA data were obtained from a validated questionnaire that included information on PA intensity and duration. Metabolic equivalent of tasks were calculated to estimate the total daily PA level for each individual. In addition to single- and multiple-SNP association tests, a pathway enrichment analysis was performed to identify the biological significance of SNP markers. Although no significant SNP was found at genome-wide significance level via single-SNP association tests, 59 genetic variants mapped to 76 genes were identified via a multiple SNP approach using a bootstrap selection stability measure. Pathway analysis for these 59 variants showed that maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) was enriched. Joint identification of SNPs could enable the identification of multiple SNPs with good predictive power for PA and a pathway enriched for PA.

Project description:Total RNA samples from three independent transfection experiments of vectors containing two different allelic variants of 4 miRNAs (hsa-mir-146a, hsa-mir-196a2, hsa-mir-499a, hsa-mir-499b) and an empty vector. The selected variants are cancer associated SNPs located in cancer related miRNAs. The aim of this study is to identify functional explanations for those associations. HeLa cells were used for microarray expression experiments in Agilent SurePrint G3 Human Gene Expression microarrays (8x60k), which target over 60,000 well-annotated RefSeq transcripts starting from 300ng of total RNA. Data were analyzed using the Array File Maker (AFM) 4.0 software package (Array File Maker, Stanford, California).

Project description:PurposeSchizophrenia is a devastating mental disorder and is known to be affected by genetic factors. The chromogranin B (CHGB), a member of the chromogranin gene family, has been proposed as a candidate gene associated with the risk of schizophrenia. The secretory pathway for peptide hormones and neuropeptides in the brain is regulated by chromogranin proteins. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential associations between genetic variants of CHGB and schizophrenia susceptibility.Materials and methodsIn the current study, 15 single nucleotide polymorphisms of CHGB were genotyped in 310 schizophrenia patients and 604 healthy controls.ResultsStatistical analysis revealed that two genetic variants (non-synonymous rs910122; rs2821 in 3'-untranslated region) were associated with schizophrenia [minimum p=0.002; odds ratio (OR)=0.72], even after correction for multiple testing (p(corr)=0.02). Since schizophrenia is known to be differentially expressed between sexes, additional analysis for sex was performed. As a result, these two genetic variants (rs910122 and rs2821) and a haplotype (ht3) showed significant associations with schizophrenia in male subjects (p(corr)=0.02; OR=0.64), whereas the significance disappeared in female subjects (p>0.05).ConclusionAlthough this study has limitations including a small number of samples and lack of functional study, our results suggest that genetic variants of CHGB may have sex-specific effects on the risk of schizophrenia and provide useful preliminary information for further study.

Project description:Background: Vitamin D is associated with lung health in epidemiologi studies, but mechanisms mediating observed associations are poorly understood. This study explores mechanisms for an effect of vitamin D in lung through an in vivo gene expression study, an expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis in lung tissue, and a population-based cohort study of sequence variants. Methods: Microarray analysis investigated the association of gene expression in small airway epithelial cell with serum 25[OH]D in adult nonsmokers. Sequence variants in candidate genes identified by the microarray were investigated in a lung tissue eQTL database, and also in relation to cross-sectional pulmonary function in Health, Aging, and Body Composition [Health ABC] study, stratified by race, with replication in the Framingham Heart Study [FHS]. Results: 13 candidate genes had significant differences in expression by serum 25[OH]D (nominal p<0.05), and a genome-wide significant eQTL association was detected for SGPP2. In Health ABC, SGPP2 SNPs were associated with FEV1 in both European and African-Americans, and the gene-level association was replicated in European-American FHS participants. SNPs in 5 additional candidate genes (DAPK1, FSTL1, KAL1, KCNS3 and RSAD2) were associated with FEV1 in Health ABC participants. Conclusions: SGPP2, a sphingosine-1-phosphate, is a novel vitamin D-responsive gene associated with lunh function. The identified associations will need to be followed up in further studies.
