Project description:Transcriptional Profiling of Insulin Sensitive and Insulin Resistant Samples Sixty two participants at the tail ends of the distribution of insulin sensitivity adjusted for age, gender and natural logarithm of BMI for each ethnic group separately. Individuals at tail ends were well matched for age, gender, BMI, and percent fat, but were different for insulin sensitivity. Participants were of age 20 years to 55 years, body mass index (BMI) between 19 kg/m2 and 42 kg/m2, and had all biopsies obtained in the fasting state.

Project description:We used single-cell RNA-sequencing to generate transcriptional profiles of endocrine and exocrine cell types of the human pancreas. Pancreatic tissue and islets were obtained from six healthy and four T2D cadaveric donors. Islets were cultured and dissociated into single-cell suspension. Viable individual cells were distributed via fluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) into 384-well plates containing lysis buffer. Single-cell cDNA libraries were generated using the Smart-seq2 protocol. Gene expression was quantified as reads per kilobase transcript and per million mapped reads (RPKM) using rpkmforgenes. Bioinformatics analysis was used to classify cells into cell types without knowledge of cell types or prior purification of cell populations. We revealed subpopulations in endocrine and exocrine cell types, identified genes with interesting correlations to body mass index (BMI) in specific cell types and found transcriptional alterations in T2D. Complementary whole-islet RNA-seq data have also been deposited at ArrayExpress under accession number E-MTAB-5060 (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-MTAB-5060).

Project description:Epigenetics presents a dynamic approach to assess complex individual variation in obesity susceptibility. However, few studies have examined epigenetic patterns in preschool-age children, despite the relevance of this developmental stage to trajectories of weight gain, because of difficulties obtaining blood tissue samples. This proof of principle study examined DNA methylation in 92 saliva samples, comparing Latino preschool children of normal weight mothers (Body Mass Index [BMI] <27 kg/m2 and WC <90 cm) to children of obese mothers (BMI >30 kg/m2 and WC >100 cm). We hypothesized that salivary DNA methylation patterns in Latino preschool age children born of normal weight vs obese weight mothers would be: 1) associated with maternal BMI phenotype in continuous linear regression analysis; 2) saliva could demonstrate epigenetic variation across individuals; and 3) preschool child saliva would be differentially methylated when comparing those children with obese versus normal weight mothers. One hundred and nineteen CpG sites were significantly (p-value <1.56 X 10-5, p-value adjusted <.05) associated with maternal BMI in linear regression models controlling for childâs age, gender, and BMI. Of these 119 CpG sites, 41 were found within the transcription start site, 5â UTR, 3â UTR, or another regulatory region outside of the gene body. Saliva, a practical human tissue to obtain in naturalistic settings and in pediatric populations, was confirmed to be a viable medium for genome-wide epigenetic testing with maternal weight. Although not identical to results yielded from other human tissue types (i.e., cord blood samples), saliva findings indicate potential epigenetic differences in Latino preschool children at risk for pediatric obesity. This proof of principle study examined DNA methylation in 92 saliva samples, comparing Latino preschool children of normal weight mothers (Body Mass Index [BMI] <27 kg/m2 and WC <90 cm) to children of obese mothers (BMI >30 kg/m2 and WC >100 cm). Antropometry was measured objectively according to a standardized protocol.Saliva from preschool Latino children at risk for obesity (BMI>50% < 95% participating in WIC/SNAP programs) was collected using the Oragene DNA saliva kit following a strict data collection protocol. DNA extraction was performed as per DNA Genotek's recommendations using the PrepIT L2P reagent. Extracted DNA was stored in individually barcoded cryovials at â80 degrees Fahrenheit. For children, saliva was obtained using the âbaby brushâ approach, in which small sponges attached to plastic handles are inserted between cheek and gumline to absorb saliva .Arrays were processed using standard protocol [34], with 3 samples randomly selected to serve as duplicates and 1 sample run with HapMap DNA to test functionality of reagents. Duplicates were measured for high technique consistency with Pearson correlation coefficient (>.99). Methylation data were quality controlled using Illumina GenomeStudio (V2011.1), Methylation module (V1.9.0). Samples with lower than 98% call rate (i.e. <485,000 probes) were excluded. Any non-specific cross-reacting probes, probes carrying common SNPs (MAF >1%), or any probes with p-values greater than 0.05 for more than 20% of the sample were sequentially excluded. Validation via pyrosequencing was conducted.

Project description:Comparison of transcript abundance estimates and bioinformatic inferences derived from DBS vs PAXgene vs peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples. Gene expression profiling was conducted using parallel collection and assay of venipuncture samples (PAXgene and PBMC) and DBS samples. Data come from 83 community dwelling adults recruited from the Chicago metropolitan area. In addition to basic demographic characteristics (age, sex, race/ethnicity), participants were also assessed on health-related characteristics (body mass index/BMI; history of smoking or heavy alchol consumption), and educational attainment (z-score transformed). Categorial variables were coded 0=no/absent and 1=yes/present.

Project description:Comparison of transcript abundance estimates derived from DBS vs saliva vs gold standard peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples. Gene expression profiling was conducted using parallel collection and assay of venipuncture blood samples (PBMC), DBS samples, and saliva. Data come from 58 community dwelling adults recruited from the Los Angeles metropolitan area. Analyzed data include basic demographic characteristics (age, sex, race/ethnicity) and body mass index (BMI) as well as RNA indicators of major leukocyte subset prevalence (i.e., estimated abundance of mRNA for CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19, FCGR3A/CD16, NCAM1/CD56, and CD14; all provided here as log2-transformed values of normalized gene expression data). Categorial variables were coded 0=no/absent and 1=yes/present.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to identify mRNA transcripts encoding tissue restricted cell surface proteins on human islet tissue that, in turn, might serve as markers for determination of healthy, transplanted and/or diseased islet cell mass. Using oligonucleotide microarrays and clinical grade human islets, we obtained the gene expression profiles of cultured normal islet tissue and compared them to profiles of islets treated with interferon alpha 2 beta, islet-depleted exocrine pancreas, pooled whole pancreas, pooled liver and pooled kidney tissue. Data set filtering and comparisons of gene expression patterns revealed a small set of genes corresponding to transmembrane or membrane associated proteins with limited tissue distributions (present in Islets of Langerhans and, often, central or peripheral nervous system tissues, but absent from exocrine pancreas, liver, kidney and other tissues) with possible utility as novel islet markers. Under the influence of IFN alpha, some of these transcripts show differential expression as confirmed by real time PCR. In addition, we found significant differential expression of two sets of transcripts expressed in islets but with broad tissue distributions, non classical MHC class I b (HLA-G and F) and MHC Class II locus (e.g. HLA-DR alpha and HLA-DQ alpha and beta).

Project description:Primary endothelial cells from umbilical cord vein (HUVEC) obtained at delivery from gestational diabetic (GD) women, represent an expedient model for the study of the effects of chronic HG in vivo. In fetal tissues genome-wide epigenetic changes are likely to occur with specific long term and even trans-generational effects. We have utilized this model to study the effects of chronic hyperglycemia on the transcriptome and to verify the presence of specific epigenetic changes associated to chronic HG in vascular cells. HUVEC cells from Umbilical cords of 3 Caucasian Gestational Diabetes women were compared with HUVEC cells from umbilical of from 3 Caucasian non diabetic women matching for age and Body Mass Index. [sample collection] Umbilical cords were obtained from 3 Caucasian Gestational diabetes women (diagnosed not later than 28 th gestational week - gw) and from 3 Caucasian non diabetic women matching for age and Body Mass Index (BMI). All pregnants signed an informed consent. All donors were normotensive, and underwent a 100 g 3 hours Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) between the 24 -34th gw. Each woman performed a 7 points-blood glucose monitoring on 3 days at week 34 -36th gw.

Project description:Obesity is a risk factor for numerous metabolic disorders; however, not all obese individuals are prone to insulin resistance. The central aim of this study was to identify molecular pathways directly related to insulin resistance independent of BMI in obesity. We sought to determine the gene expression signature of adipose tissue in a body mass index (BMI)-matched obese cohort of patients that are either insulin sensitive or insulin resistant.
