Project description:SNPs affecting disease risk often reside in non-coding genomic regions. Here we show that SNPs are highly enriched at mouse strain-selective adipose tissue binding sites for PPARγ, a nuclear receptor for antidiabetic drugs. Many such SNPs alter binding motifs for PPARγ or cooperating factors, and functionally regulate nearby genes whose expression is strain-selective and imbalanced in heterozygous F1 mice. Moreover, genetically-determined binding of PPARγ accounts for mouse strain-specific transcriptional effects of TZD drugs, providing proof-of- concept for personalized medicine related to nuclear receptor genomic occupancy. In human fat, motif-altering SNPs cause differential PPARγ binding, provide a molecular mechanism for some expression quantitative trait loci, and are risk factors for dysmetabolic traits in genome- wide association studies. One PPARγ motif-altering SNP is associated with HDL levels and other metabolic syndrome parameters. Thus, natural genetic variation in PPARγ genomic occupancy determines individual disease risk and drug response.

Comparison of 5 RNA-seq experiments between 2 strains of mice differing in diet and fat depot. One of the experiments was evaluation of the response to a drug Rosiglitazone. Our RNA-seq data comprises primarily of 4 main experiments: The first experiment consists of samples taken from 2 strains of mice and their F1 progeny The samples are all taken from the same depot and when the mice were fed the same chow diet The second experiment has 2 parts, the first one involves samples taken from the 2 strains from the same eWAT depot when they were kept on a Low Fat Diet (LFD) This first part serves as a control for the second one in which the mice were treated with a drug, rosiglitazone in conjunction with a LFD The third experiment consists of samples taken from mice being fed on LFD. The samples are taken from the eWAT depot for both the strains. The fourth experiment consists of samples taken from mice being fed on LFD. The samples are taken from the iWAT depot for both the strains. We also have a solitary sample from a GRO-seq experiment which was done on eWAT in a B6 strain of mice being fed a LFD eWAT: epididymal White Adipose Tissue iWAT: inguinal White Adipose Tissue LFD-12w: mice were fed a control low fat diet (Research Diet D12450B) chow: mice were fed standard rodent chow Diet LFD w/rosiglitazone: Drug rosiglitazone (Cayman Chemicals) was incorporated into low fat diet D12450B by Research Diets at 36mg/kg of diet. Mice received control low fat diet for 10 weeks (age 6-16 weeks), and the rosiglitazone-containing diet versus control diet for the final 2 weeks (until sacrifice at 18 weeks) LFD control for rosi: mice were fed a control low fat diet (Research Diet D12450B)

Project description:Faced by an alarming incidence of metabolic diseases including obesity and type 2 diabetes worldwide, there is an urgent need for effective strategies for preventing and treating these common diseases. The nuclear receptor PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma) plays a crucial role in metabolism. We isolated the amorfrutins from edible parts of the plants Glychyrrhiza foetida and Amorpha fruticosa, and identified these natural products as a new chemical class to treat insulin resistance and diabetes by selectively activating PPARγ. In contrast to existing synthetic PPARγ drugs, the amorfrutins display unique properties by separating insulin sensitization from unwanted side effects. In obese mouse models, amorfrutin treatment significantly improved important metabolic and inflammatory parameters. In summary, PPARγ activation by selective amorfrutins derived from edible biomaterial is a promising approach to combat metabolic diseases and other diseases in which PPARγ is involved in.

Project description:Sequence-specific transcription factors (TFs) regulate gene expression by binding to cognate motifs in promoters and enhancers. However, predicting genomic TF binding events and their quantitative contribution to expression remains a major challenge. In principle, the binding and enhancer activity of specific sites in vivo might depend on: (i) latent properties of the motif instance, (ii) cooperative interactions with other TFs that bind in the immediate vicinity, and (iii) the chromatin state of the sites in the genome. Here, we used massively parallel reporter assays (MPRA) involving 32,115 natural and synthetic enhancers, together with high-throughput in vivo assays, to systematically dissect the contributions of motif affinity, cooperative interactions, and chromatin accessibility to the binding and regulatory activity of genomic sequences that contain motifs for PPARγ, a TF that serves as a key regulator of adipogenesis. We show that PPARγ binding and enhancer activity are governed by distinct features. Genomic PPARγ binding to motif sites is largely governed by on larger-scale features, such as chromatin accessibility, whereas the degree to which a PPARγ motif site enhances transcriptional activity depends on the sequence immediately surround the motif. We detect and functionally validate a network of TFs comprised of multiple functional classes that collaborate with PPARγ to drive transcription. We extensively perturb this network, revealing functional cooperativity among classes of TFs that does not depend on precise positioning. Together, these results present a clear picture of how chromatin and TFs from distinct functional classes interact with PPARγ to determine binding and enhancer activity, and provide a paradigm for studying any TF.

Project description:We profiled androgen receptor (AR) genomic targets using high-throughput sequencing of chromatin-immunoprecipitated (ChIP) DNA from TMPRSS2-ERG fusion gene positive DUCaP prostate cancer cells. ChIp-seq and microarray gene expression profiling datasets were integrated with the NHGRI GWAS PCa risk SNPs catalog to identify disease susceptibility SNPs localized within functional androgen receptor binding sites (ARBSs). Eighty GWAS index or linked SNPs were found to be localized in ARBSs. Among these rs11891426:T>G in the 7th intron of the melanophilin gene was found located within a novel putative auxiliary AR binding motif, which we found enriched in the neighborhood of canonical androgen responsive elements. T→G exchange attenuated the transcriptional activity of the ARBS in an AR reporter gene assay of prostate cancer cell models. It went also in line with decreased melanophilin protein level in primary prostate tumors with G allele.These results unravel a hidden link between androgen receptor and a functional PCa risk SNP, whose allele alteration affects androgen regulation of its host gene melanophilin . Genomic profile of androgen receptor binding sites of androgen or vehicle treated DUCaP cells using ChIP-seq. IgG precipiated DNAs from both treatments served as controls.

Project description:GWAS have discovered thousands of genomic loci that are associated with disease risk and quantitative traits, but most of the variants responsible for risk remain uncharacterized. The vast majority of GWAS-identified loci contain non-coding SNPs and defining molecular mechanism of risk is challenging. Many non-coding causal SNPs are hypothesized to alter Transcription Factor (TF) binding sites as the mechanism by which they affect organismal phenotypes. We employed an integrative genomics approach to identify candidate TF binding motifs that confer breast cancer-specific phenotypes identified by GWAS. We performed de novo motif analysis of regulatory elements, analyzed evolutionary conservation of identified motifs, and assayed TF footprinting data to identify sequence elements that recruit TFs and maintain chromatin landscape in breast cancer-relevant tissue and cell lines. Regulatory elements for MCF10A were mapped with ATAC-seq.We identified top candidate causal SNPs that are predicted to alter TF binding, within breast cancer-relevant regulatory regions, and in strong linkage disequilibrium with the GWAS SNPs. This integrative analysis pipeline is a general framework to identify candidate causal variants within regulatory regions and TF binding sites that confer phenotypic variation and disease risk.

Project description:Fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) is a circulating hepatokine that beneficially affects carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Here we report that FGF21 is also an inducible, fed-state autocrine factor in adipose tissue that functions in a feed-forward loop to regulate the activity of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), a master transcriptional regulator of adipogenesis. FGF21-knockout (KO) mice display defects in PPARγ signaling including decreased body fat and attenuation of PPARγ-dependent gene expression. Moreover, FGF21-KO mice are refratory to both the beneficial, insulin-sensitizing effects and the detrimental weight gain and edema side effects of the PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone. This loss of function in FGF21-KO mice is coincident with a marked increase in the sumoylation of PPARγ, which reduces its transcriptional activity. Adding back FGF21 prevents sumoylation and restores PPARγ activity. Collectively, these results reveal FGF21 as a key mediator of the physiologic and pharmacologic actions of PPARγ.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified dozens of genomic loci, whose single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) predispose to prostate cancer (PCa). However, the biological functions of these common genetic variants and the mechanisms to increase disease risk are largely unknown. We integrated chromatin-IP coupled sequencing (ChIP-seq) and microarray expression profiling in the TMPRSS2-ERG gene rearrangement positive DuCaP cell model with the NHGRI GWAS PCa risk SNPs catalog, in an attempt to identify disease susceptibility SNPs localized within functional androgen receptor binding sites (ARBSs). Among the 48 GWAS index SNPs and 2,702 linked SNPs defined by the 1000G project 104 were found to be localized in the AR ChIP-seq peaks. Of these risk SNPs, rs11891426 T/G in the 7th intron of its host gene melanophilin (MLPH) was found located within a putative auxiliary ARE motif, which we found enriched in the neighborhood of canonical ARE motifs. Exchange of T to G attenuated the transcriptional activity of the MLPH-ARBS in a reporter gene assay. The expression of MLPH protein in tissue samples from prostate cancer patients was significantly lower in those with the G compared to the T allele. Moreover, a significant positive correlation of AR and MLPH protein expression levels was also confirmed in tissue samples. These results unravel a hidden link between AR and a functional PCa risk SNP rs11891426, whose allele alteration affects androgen regulation of its host gene MLPH. This study shows the power of integrative studies to pin down functional risk SNPs and justifies further investigations.
