Project description:Gene expression profiles in PPD-stimulated and unstimulated peripherhal blood mononuclear cells isolated from chinese cynomolgus macaques before and after BCG vaccination and before and after M. tuberculosis challenge were compared in animals able to control TB infection and those that developed TB disease in order to identify potential correlates of protection and/or biomarkers of disease.

Project description:Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmnue bleeding disorder characterized by low platelet count. To identify susceptibility loci for disease progression of ITP, we performed this genome-wide association study using DNA pools of 200 ITP cases and 200 controsl in Han Chinese. Performing GWAS on pools of DNA samples is an effective strategy to reduce the costs of studies and pooling DNA has been shown to be an efficient method to select candidate susceptibility loci for follow-up by individual genotyping.

Project description:Gene expression profiles in PPD-stimulated and unstimulated peripherhal blood mononuclear cells isolated from chinese cynomolgus macaques before and after BCG vaccination and before and after M. tuberculosis challenge were compared in animals able to control TB infection and those that developed TB disease in order to identify potential correlates of protection and/or biomarkers of disease. 6 macaques received BCG vaccination prior to challenge and were able to control TB infection (vaccinated controllers). 3 unvaccinated macaques were also able to control TB infection after challenge (unvaccinated controllers) and 3 other unvaccinated macaques developed TB disease and reached humane endpoint criteria (unvaccinated progressors). PBMCs isolated at 8 and 18 weeks post BCG-vaccination from the vaccinated controllers and at 6 weeks post M.tb challenge and at 2 time-points when the animals were naive in all animals were stimulated with PPD. RNA was extracted from the cells and hybridised to and Agilent rhesus macaque GE microarray in a one-colour hybridisation. Gene expression post-vaccination and/or post-challenge was compared with expression before vaccination/challenge when the animals were naive.

Project description:Genome-wide association study of leprosy in Chinese population
| PRJNA75569 | ENA
Project description:<p>Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by <i>Mycobacterium leprae</i> (<i>M. leprae</i>). Due to <i>M. leprae's</i>
narrow host range and an inability to be cultured <i>in vitro</i>, the biological investigation of this disease has been difficult. Host
genetic factors have been suggested to play an important role in disease development, but few have been identified.</p>
<p>In this study, we attempted to identify the host genetic factors by performing a two-stage genome-wide association
study (GWAS) in Chinese population. The initial genome-wide scan was done by genotyping 706 patients and 1225 controls using
the Illumina HumanHap610 BeadChip, and the follow-up study was performed by genotyping 93 SNPs in three independent samples
consisting of 3254 cases and 5955 controls. We identified significant association (P<10<sup>-10</sup>) within six genes
CCDC122 (13q14), C13orf31 (13q14), NOD2 (16q12), TNFSF15 (9q32), HLA-DR (6p21) and RIPK2 (8q21), and suggestive
association (P=5.68x10<sup>-6</sup>) within LRRK2 (12q12). We also revealed suggestive evidence for C13orf31, LRRK2,
NOD2 and RIPK2 to show stronger association in the multibacillary form than the paucibacillary form of leprosy. Our
findings highlight the importance of the innate immune response, particularly NOD2-mediated signaling, in leprosy
and suggests a new therapeutic target for leprosy.</p>
<p>Here, the summary statistics from the initial genome-wide association analysis were reported.</p>

Project description:Whole genome genotyping (WGG) arrays are the powerful tools for GWAS in farm animal. Here we take advantage of the commercial Illumina PorcineSNP60 BeadChips, a mapping population including 101 individuals were genotyped. Association analysis and linkage analysis were followed to map the causative gene of hearing loss in Chinese Rongchang pigs. To Mapping the causative gene of hearing loss in Chinese Rongchang pigs, we genotyped 60000 markers in the genome of a mapping population including 101 individuals. Illumina 60K BeadChips were used. Sample types were normal blood samples.

Project description:Tuberculosis is a deadly infectious disease, which kills millions of people every year. The causative pathogen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), is estimated to have infected up to a third of the world’s population; however, only approximately 10% of healthy individuals progress to active TB disease. Despite evidence for heritability, it is not currently possible to predict whether a healthy person is susceptible to TB. To explore approaches to classify susceptibility to TB, we infected with MTB dendritic cells (DCs) from putatively resistant individuals diagnosed with latent TB, and from susceptible individuals that had recovered from a past episode of active TB. We measured genome-wide gene expression levels in infected and non-infected cells and found hundreds of differentially expressed genes between susceptible and resistant individuals in the non-infected cells. We further found that genetic polymorphisms in proximity to the differentially expressed genes between susceptible and resistant individuals are more likely to be associated with TB susceptibility in published GWAS data. By intersecting the gene expression and GWAS data, we identified two promising candidate genes: CCL1 and UNC13A. Lastly, we trained a classifier based on the gene expression levels in the non-infected cells, and demonstrated decent performance on our data and an independent data set. Overall, our promising results from this small study suggest that training a classifier on a larger cohort may enable us to accurately predict TB susceptibility.

Project description:Epigenetic alternations in addition to genetic factors are important contributors to the pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Recent studies revealed that aberrant changes in DNA methylation occur in SLE patients, and potentially contributes to the pathogenesis. Using genome-wide DNA methylation microarray, the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip, we compared the DNA methylation level of white blood cells between Chinese female SLE patients with that of healthy controls. There was no difference in global levels of DNA methylation between SLE patients and controls. However, we identified 36 CpG sites with differential loss of DNA methylation and 8 CpG sites with differential gain of DNA methylation, representing 26 genes and 7 genes respectively. Surprisingly, nearly half of the hypomethylated CpG sites were located in the CpG shores, which implicated the functional importance of loss of DNA methylation in the CpG shores in SLE.
