Project description:Chronic superficial keratitis (CSK) is a progressive inflammatory condition of the eye (cornea) that can cause discomfort and blindness. Differential disease risk across dog breeds strongly suggests that CSK has a genetic basis. In addition to genetic risk, the occurrence of CSK is exacerbated by exposure to ultraviolet light. Genome-wide association analysis considered 109 greyhounds, 70 with CSK and the remainder with normal phenotype at an age over four years. Three co-located variants on CFA18 near the 5' region of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene were associated with genome-wide significance after multiple-test correction (BICF2P579527, CFA18: 6,068,508, praw = 1.77 × 10-7, pgenome = 0.017; BICF2P1310662, CFA18: 6,077,388, praw = 4.09 × 10-7, pgenome = 0.040; BICF2P160719, CFA18: 6,087,347, praw = 4.09 × 10-7, pgenome = 0.040) (canFam4)). Of the top 10 associated markers, eight were co-located with the significantly associated markers on CFA18. The associated haplotype on CFA18 is protective for the CSK condition. EGFR is known to play a role in corneal healing, where it initiates differentiation and proliferation of epithelial cells that in turn signal the involvement of stromal keratocytes to commence apoptosis. Further validation of the putative functional variants is required prior to their use in genetic testing for breeding programs.

Project description:The avian cerebellum is known for its relatively large size and high degree of development, functioning as a crucial region for multisensory integration and motor control, particularly important for flight. This study aimed to investigate changes in gene expression in the cerebellum of racing pigeons using RNA-Seq analysis. The researchers analyzed samples from 10 racing homers' cerebellums before and after a 300 km flight back to their loft. The findings revealed that flight induces ribosome impairment in the cerebellum, suggesting potential alterations in the protein synthesis machinery due to prolonged flight activity as response to stress and maintain homeostasis.

Project description:The currently known homing pigeon is a result of a sharp one-sided selection for flight characteristics focused on speed, endurance, and spatial orientation. This has led to extremely well-adapted athletic phenotypes in racing birds. Here, we identify genes and pathways contributing to exercise adaptation in sport pigeons by applying next-generation transcriptome sequencing of m.pectoralis muscle samples, collected before and after a 300 km competition flight. The analysis of differentially expressed genes pictured the central role of pathways involved in fuel selection and muscle maintenance during flight, with a core set of genes: ARTN, NREP, CAV3, SLC25A30, SLC2A11. Variations in these genes may therefore be exploited for genetic improvement of the racing pigeon population towards specific categories of competition flights.

Project description:Genome-wide mRNA expression profiles of 70 primary gastric tumors from the Australian patient cohort. Like many cancers, gastric adenocarcinomas (gastric cancers) show considerable heterogeneity between patients. Thus, there is intense interest in using gene expression profiles to discover subtypes of gastric cancers with particular biological properties or therapeutic vulnerabilities. Identification of such subtypes could generate insights into the mechanisms of cancer progression or lay the foundation for personalized treatments. Here we report a robust gene-xpression-based clustering of a large collection of gastric adenocarcinomas from Singaporean patients [GSE34942 and GSE15459]. We developed and validated a classifier for the three subtypes in Australian patient cohort.
