Project description:We used an array-based bioassay whereby serum is used to induce transcription in healthy “reporter” leukocytes. Serum samples were obtained from control-arm subjects enrolled in 3 clinical trials evaluating immunotherapies in T1D that were conducted by the Immune Tolerance Network. The included trials evaluated immune-modifying therapy in new-onset T1D, with similar trial timecourses, primary outcomes, and data and sample collection. Total RNA was isolated from the reporter cell line for gene expression analysis.

Project description:We investigated whether circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with residual insulin secretion at diagnosis and predict the severity of its future decline. We studied 53 newly diagnosed subjects enrolled in placebo groups of TrialNet clinical trials. We measured serum levels of 2,083 miRNAs using RNAseq technology, in fasting samples from the baseline visit (<100 days from diagnosis), during which residual insulin secretion was measured with a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT). Area under the curve (AUC) C-peptide and peak C-peptide were stratified by quartiles of expression of 31 miRNAs. After adjustment for baseline C-peptide, age, BMI and sex, baseline levels of miR-3187-3p, miR-4302, and the miRNA combination of miR-3187-3p/miR-103a-3p predicted differences in MMTT C-peptide AUC/peak levels at the 12-month visit; the combination miR-3187-3p/miR-4723-5p predicted proportions of subjects above/below the 200 pmol/L clinical trial eligibility threshold at the 12-month visit. Thus, miRNA assessment at baseline identifies associations with C-peptide and stratifies subjects for future severity of C-peptide loss after 1 year. We suggest that miRNAs may be useful in predicting future C-peptide decline for improved subject stratification in clinical trials.

Project description:Room temperature whole blood mRNA stabilization procedures, such as the PAX gene system, are critical for the application of transcriptional analysis to population-based clinical studies. Global transcriptome analysis of whole blood RNA using microarrays has proven to be challenging due to the high abundance of globin transcripts that constitute 70% of whole blood mRNA in the blood. This is a particular problem in patients with sickle-cell disease, secondary to the high abundance of globin-expressing nucleated red blood cells and reticulocytes in the circulation . In order to more accurately measure the steady state whole blood transcriptome in sickle-cell patients, we evaluated the efficacy of reducing globin transcripts in PAXgene stabilized RNA samples for genome-wide transcriptome analyses using oligonucleotide arrays. We demonstrate here by both microarrays and Q-PCR that the globin mRNA depletion method resulted in 55-65 fold reduction in globin transcripts in whole blood collected from healthy volunteers and sickle-cell disease patients. This led to an improvement in microarray data quality with increased detection rate of expressed genes and improved overlap with the expression signatures of isolated peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC) preparations. The differentially modulated genes from the globin depleted samples had a higher correlation coefficient to the 112 genes identified to be significantly altered in our previous study on sickle-cell disease using PBMC preparations. Additionally, the analysis of differences between the whole blood transcriptome and PBMC transcriptome reveals important erythrocyte genes that participate in sickle-cell pathogenesis and compensation. The combination of globin mRNA reduction after whole-blood RNA stabilization represents a robust clinical research methodology for the discovery of biomarkers for hematologic diseases and in multicenter clinical trials investigating a wide range of nonhematologic disorders where fractionation of cell types is impracticable. Keywords: Microarrays, PAXgene, globin reduction, whole blood, PBMC There are 10 samples for each of PBMC, PAX and PAX globin-reduced, where 5 samples come from sickle-cell patients and 5 from healthy controls.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis is of great interest in clinical research, where significant differences between individuals can be translated into biomarkers of disease. Although next generation sequencing provides robust, comparable and highly informative expression profiling data, with several million of tags per blood sample, reticulocyte globin transcripts can constitute up to 76% of total mRNA compromising the detection of low abundant transcripts. We have removed globin transcripts from 6 human whole blood RNA samples with a human globin reduction kit and compared them with the same non-reduced samples using deep Serial Analysis of Gene Expression. Comparison of 6 whole blood RNA samples versus their globin reduced counterparts

Project description:Genetic risk variants identified in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of complex disease are primarily non-coding, and translating risk variants into mechanistic insight requires detailed gene regulatory maps in disease-relevant cell types. Here, we combined a GWAS of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in 520,580 samples with candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) in pancreas and peripheral blood mononuclear cell types defined using single nucleus ATAC-seq (snATAC-seq) of 131,554 nuclei. T1D risk variants were enriched in cCREs active in T cells and additional cell types, including acinar and ductal cells of the exocrine pancreas. Risk variants at multiple T1D signals overlapped exocrine-specific cCREs linked to genes with exocrine-specific expression. At the CFTR locus, T1D risk variant rs7795896 mapped in a ductal-specific cCRE which regulated CFTR, and the risk allele reduced transcription factor binding, enhancer activity and CFTR expression in ductal cells. These findings support a role for the exocrine pancreas in T1D pathogenesis and highlight the power of large-scale GWAS and single cell epigenomics for understanding the cellular origins of complex disease.

Project description:Peripheral whole blood-based gene expression profiling has become one of the most common strategies exploited in the development of clinically relevant biomarkers. However, the ability to identify biologically meaningful conclusions from gene expression patterns in whole blood is highly problematic. First, it is difficult to know whether or not expression patterns in whole blood capture those in primary tissues. Second, if explicit steps are not taken to accommodate the extremely elevated expression levels of globin in blood then large-scale multi-probe microarray-based studies can be severely compromised. Many studies consider the use of mouse blood as a model for human blood in addition to considering blood gene expression levels as a general surrogate for gene expression levels in other tissues. We explored the effects of globin reduction on peripheral mouse blood in the detection of genes known to be expressed in human tissues. Globin reduction resulted in 1.) a significant increase in the number of probes detected (5840 ± 944 vs 12411 ± 1904); 2.) increased expression for 4128 probe sets compared to non-globin reduced blood (p < .001, ≥ two-fold); 3.) improved detection of genes associated with many biological pathways and diseases; and 4.) an increased ability to detect genes expressed in 27 human tissues (p < 10-4). This study suggests that although microarray-based mouse blood gene expression studies that do not consider the effects of globin are severely compromised, globin-reduced mouse whole blood gene expression studies can be used to capture the expression profiles of genes known to contribute to various human diseases. Whole and GLOBINclear-treated paired blood samples from 18 mice representing 3 mice from 6 different isogenic mice strains.

Project description:To unravel genes and molecular pathways involved in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D), we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling of prospective venous blood samples from children developing T1D-associated autoantibodies or progressing towards clinical diagnosis. 247 peripheral blood RNA samples from 18 prediabetic children and their matched controls were analyzed with Illumina Human HT-12 Expression BeadChips version 3 arrays, in order to study the gene expression changes occuring during the pathogenesis of Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Each case child (with T1D-specific autoantibodies) was matched with a persistently autoantibody-negative control child, with the same HLA-DQB1 risk category, gender, and place and date of birth. Two control children were selected for T1D cases 3, 5, 13 and 17. Seroconversion is determined as the first detection of T1D-specific autoantibody/autoantibodies (ICA titre >4 JDFU, IAA >3.47 RU, GADA >5.4 RU, IA-2A >0.43 RU, ZnT8A >0.61 RU).
