Powell-Wiley: The Washington DC Cardiovascular Health and Needs Assessment

ABSTRACT: Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of blood of participants from a high CVD risk community-based cohort of African American individuals from Washington D.C. Chronic stress increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and amygdalar activity (AmygA), a known marker of chronic stress which has been associated with subclinical CVD. Previous research suggests a plausible connection between AmygA, hematopoietic tissue activity, arterial inflammation, and cardiovascular events. There is a paucity of data on the relationships between AmygA, hematopoietic activity, and epigenomics modifications through deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation among racial and ethnic minorities. We investigated the association between AmygA and spleen (SpleenA) and bone marrow activity (BMA) as well as DNA methylation at genes previously associated with stress. Participants included in the study were from a high CVD risk community-based cohort of African American individuals from Washington D.C. AmygA was measured by aortic uptake of 18Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) on Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography and calculated as standardized uptake values (SUVs). SpleenA and BMA were calculated as SUVs from regions of interest within the spleen and vertebrae, respectively. Standardized beta coefficients (β ) and p-values were calculated from linear regression models adjusted for body mass index and 10-year predicted atherosclerotic CVD risk.

Expression data of Participants of Ornish intervention and Control group

Project description:Intensive lifestyle modification is believed to mediate cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk through traditional pathways that affect endothelial function and progression of atherosclerosis; however, the extent, persistence, and clinical significance of molecular change during lifestyle modification are not well known. Our study reveals that gene expression signatures are significantly modulated by rigorous lifestyle behaviors and track with CVD risk profiles over time. We examined the impact of a rigorous CVD risk reduction program on peripheral blood gene expression profiles in 63 participants and 63 matched controls to characterize molecular response to lifestyle modification and identify regulatory pathways important to cardiovascular health.

Common and rare variant prediction and penetrance of IBD in a large, multi-ethnic, health system-based biobank cohort

Project description:Background and aims: As genome sequencing technologies rapidly expand in capacity and availability, understanding how genetic background in different populations modifies IBD risk will be an important factor in disease prediction, prevention, and treatment. However, most of the datasets that are used to generate polygenic risk scores (PRS) contain predominantly European ancestry patients. To address this, we tested different models for prediction of IBD cases using PRS built using association data from multiple races and also assessed the penetrance of rare very early onset IBD (VEOIBD) SNPs. Methods: PRS were calculated using association data from European, African American, and Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) studies, as well as a meta-GWAS run using all three association datasets. PRS were then combined using regression modelling to assess which combination of scores was best able to predict IBD status in European, AJ, Hispanic, and African American BioMe Biobank populations. Additionally, rare variants were assessed in genes associated with very early onset IBD, taking into account genetic penetrance in each BioMe population, deleteriousness, and evolutionary conservation. Results: Combining risk scores based on IBD association results from multiple racial populations resulted in improved IBD prediction for every population in BioMe. We also identified highly penetrant rare variants in previously established VEOIBD genes which were predicted to be deleterious, including SNPs in established risk genes such as NOD2 as well as novel variants, including some in LRBA which appear to be particularly relevant for risk of IBD in African Americans.

NHLBI TOPMed: Diabetes Heart Study (DHS) African American Coronary Artery Calcification (AA CAC)

Project description:<p>The Diabetes Heart Study (DHS) is a family-based study enriched for type 2 diabetes (T2D). The cohort included 1443 European American and African American participants from 564 families with multiple cases of type 2 diabetes (Bowden et al., 2010. Review of Diabetic Studies 7:188-201. PMID: <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21409311" target="_blank">21409311</a>). The cohort was recruited between 1998 and 2006. Participants were extensively phenotyped for measures of subclinical CVD and other known CVD risk factors. Primary outcomes were quantified burden of vascular calcified plaque in the coronary artery, carotid artery, and abdominal aorta all determined from non-contrast computed tomography scans.</p>

A Sociolinguistic-enabled Web Application to Develop Precision Health Intervention for African Americans

Project description:This pilot study will explore the preliminary efficacy of a colorectal cancer (CRC) screening intervention delivered by virtual health assistants (VHAs). Participants will include 750 African American patients in the US between the ages of 45 and 75 recruited through Qualtrics panels. The main research question is: How does the integration of different levels of dialect density of the linguistic features of African American English (AAE) influence the perceived credibility of a Black VHA. Four types of VHAs will be presented to our patients: a VHA with Standardized American English (SAE) linguistic features, a VHA with a low level of African American English (AAE) linguistic features integrated, a VHA with a high level of African American English (AAE) linguistic features integrated, and a text-only control condition. Survey questions will be used to obtain credibility judgments about VHAs post-interaction.

APOL1 renal-risk variants induce mitochondrial dysfunction (Affymetrix 2)

Project description:To assess differential gene expression by APOL1 renal-risk (2 risk alleles) vs. non-risk (G0G0) genotypes in primary proximal tubule cells (PTCs), global gene expression (mRNA) levels were examined on Affymetrix HTA 2.0 arrays in primary PTCs cultured from non-diseased kidney in African Americans without CKD who underwent nephrectomy for localized renal cell carcinoma. To detect differentially expressed gene profiles attributable to APOL1 renal-risk genotypes, African American primary proximal tubule cells with two APOL1 renal-risk alleles (N=5) and lacking renal-risk alleles (N=25) were included in comparisons of global gene expression.

Tumor Immunobiological Differences in Prostate Cancer between African-American and European-American Men

Project description:The incidence and mortality rates of prostate cancer are significantly higher in African-American men when compared to European-American men. We tested the hypothesis that differences in tumor biology contribute to this survival health disparity. Using microarray technology, we obtained gene expression profiles of primary prostate tumors resected from 33 African-American and 36 European-American patients. These tumors were matched on clinical parameters. We also evaluated 18 non-tumor prostate tissues from 7 African-American and 11 European-American patients. The resulting datasets were analyzed for expression differences on the gene and pathway level comparing African-American with European-American patients. Our analysis revealed a significant number of genes, e.g., 162 transcripts at a false-discovery rate less than 5%, to be differently expressed between African-American and European-American patients. Using a disease association analysis, we identified a common relationship of these transcripts with autoimmunity and inflammation. These findings were corroborated on the pathway level with numerous differently expressed genes clustering in immune response, stress response, cytokine signaling, and chemotaxis pathways. Furthermore, a two-gene tumor signature was identified that accurately differentiated between African-American and European-American patients. This finding was confirmed in a blinded analysis of a second sample set. In conclusion, the gene expression profiles of prostate tumors indicate prominent differences in tumor immunobiology between African-American and European-American men. The profiles portray the existence of a distinct tumor microenvironment in these two patient groups. Keywords: Microdissected tissue analysis
