Project description:Following the dispersal out of Africa, where hominins evolved in warm environments for millions of years, our species has colonised different climate zones of the world, including high latitudes and cold environments. The extent to which human habitation in (sub-)Arctic regions has been enabled by cultural buffering, short-term acclimatization and genetic adaptations is not clearly understood. Present day indigenous populations of Siberia show a number of phenotypic features, such as increased basal metabolic rate, low serum lipid levels, increased blood pressure, short stature and broad skulls that have been attributed to adaptation to the extreme cold climate. We have genotyped 200 individuals from ten indigenous Siberian populations for 730,525 SNPs across the genome to identify genes and non-coding regions that have undergone unusually rapid allele frequency and long-range haplotype homozygosity change in the recent past. At least three distinct population clusters could be identified among the Siberians, each of which showed a number of unique signals of selection. We present a list of cold adaption candidate genes that showed significant signals of positive selection with our strongest signals associated with genes involved in energy regulation and metabolism (CPT1A, LRP5, THADA) and vascular smooth muscle contraction (PRKG1). By employing a new method that paints phased chromosome chunks by their ancestry we distinguish local Siberian-specific long-range haplotype signals from those introduced by admixture. 200 blood samples from 200 Siberian individuals that come from ten different indigenous populations were genotypes for 730,525 SNPs across the genome. Eighteen Vietnamese samples were also genotyped and used as reference samples.

Project description:A genome-wide association study was performed on ovaries from Siberian hamsters raised in either long or short photoperiod. Few differences between long and short photoperiod were noted at 3 wk of age, when ovarian histology was identical, whereas many differences in gene expression were noted at 8 wk of age, when ovarian histologies were markedly different.

Project description:The mechanism(s) involved in the regulation of the seasonal-appropriate body weight of the Siberian hamster is currently unknown. We have identified photoperiodically regulated genes including VGF in a sub-region of the arcuate nucleus termed the dorsomedial posterior arcuate (dmpARC). Gene expression changes in this nucleus so far account for a significant number of those reported as photoperiodically regulated and are therefore likely to contribute to seasonal physiological responses of the hamsters. The present study was conducted to identify additional genes expressed in the dmpARC regulated by photoperiod that could be involved in regulating the activity of this nucleus with respect to seasonal physiology of the Siberian hamster. Using laser capture microdissection coupled with a microarray analysis and a candidate gene approach, we have identified in the dmpARC several photoperiodically regulated genes that are known to have roles in secretory and intracellular signaling pathways. These include secretogranin III (SgIII) and SgVI (secretory pathway), melanocortin 3 receptor (MC3-R) and serotonin (5-HT) receptors 2A and 7 (signaling pathway), all of which increase in expression in short photoperiod. The spatial relationship between receptor signaling and potential secretory pathways was investigated by dual in situ hybridization, which revealed that 5-HT2A and 5-HT7 receptors are expressed in neurons expressing VGF mRNA and that a sub-population (approximately 40%) of these neurons express MC3-R. These gene expression changes in dmpARC neurons may reflect the functional requirement of these neurons for seasonal physiology responses of the hamster

Project description:Affymetrix single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array data were used to study genes that underlie human adaptation to climatic stress, with a focus on genetic changes that lead to long-term cold tolerance. Siberia provides the best opportunity to investigate the genetic mechanisms of cold resistance because of the long-term ancestry of indigenous populations in some of the coldest climates on earth. While much of northern Europe was under ice throughout the last glacial period, Siberia remained relatively ice free, and archaeological evidence suggests that people inhabited this region for more than 40,000 years. We gathered SNP data from ~200 individuals from 15 indigenous Siberian populations that inhabit a range of arctic climates and compare their patterns of genetic variation with those from other world populations from warmer climates.Particular attention is paid to regions containing genes that have been previously implicated in cold adaptation or that function in known pathways connected to energy metabolism or cold adapted phenotypes (e.g., those involved in basal metabolic rate and brown adipose tissue function).

Project description:A genome-wide association study was performed on ovaries from Siberian hamsters raised in either long or short photoperiod. Few differences between long and short photoperiod were noted at 3 wk of age, when ovarian histology was identical, whereas many differences in gene expression were noted at 8 wk of age, when ovarian histologies were markedly different. Hamsters were gestated and maintained in 16 or 10 hours of light per day, the latter short photoperiod delays sexual maturity and alters ovarian histology. Differences in gene expression were evaluated by microarray at 3 and 8 wk of age, as were changes between 3 and 8 wk of age in each photoperiod.

Each hybridisation compared a LD sample (labelled with Cy5) with a SD sample (labelled with Cy3).
