Project description:The dataset consists of Oxford Nanopore targeted RNA-based amplicon data of 12 classical HLA genes (HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRA, -DRB1, -DRB3, -DRB4, -DRB5, -DQA1, -DQB1, -DPA1, and DPB1) of 50 healthy individuals. The 12 classical genes were sequenced in two separate gene pools on R9.4 flowcells using MinION sequencer. Per individual, gene pool 1 contains HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DRB3, -DRB4, -DRB5, and -DPB1 and gene pool 2 HLA-DRA, -DQA1, -DQB1, and -DPA1. The dataset includes 100 fastq files of Oxford Nanopore 2D reads (50 for gene pool 1 and 50 for gene pool 2).

Project description:HLA-DPA1-related SNP rs9277336 is linked to increased PAH risk and binds ACTN4 in an allele-specific fashion. HLA-DPA1 transcript is decreased in PAH lung endothelial cells and controlled by ACTN4. ACTN4 differential binding may cause HLA-DPA1-mediated immune dysfunction. The purpose of this specific experiment is to determine the downstream effects of ACTN4 and HLA-DPA1 downregulation, specifically looking at overlaps between the two conditions.

Project description:Genome wide association studies of schizophrenia encompassing the major histocompatibility locus (MHC) were highly significant following genome wide correction. This broad region implicates many genes including the MHC complex class II. Within this interval we examined the expression of two MHC II genes (HLA-DPA1 and HLA-DRB1) in brain from individual subjects with schizophrenia (SZ), bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), and controls by differential gene expression methods. A third MHC II mRNA, CD74, was studied outside of the MHC II locus, as it interacts within the same immune complex. HLA-DPA1 and CD74 were both reduced in hippocampus, amygdala, and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex regions in SZ and BD compared to controls by specific qPCR assay. We found several novel HLA-DPA1 mRNA variants spanning HLA-DPA1 exons 2-3-4 as suggested by an exon microarray study. The intronic rs9277341 SNP was a significant cis expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) that was associated with the total expression of HLA-DPA1 in five brain regions. A biomarker study of MHC II mRNAs was conducted in SZ, BD, MDD, and control lymphoblastic cell lines (LCL) by qPCR assay of 87 subjects. There was significantly decreased expression of HLA-DPA1 and CD74 in BD, and trends for reductions in SZ in LCLs. The discovery of multiple splicing variants in brain for HLA-DPA1 is important as the HLA-DPA1 gene is highly conserved, there are no reported splicing variants, and the functions in brain are unknown. Future work on the function and localization of MHC Class II proteins in brain will help to understand the role of alterations in neuropsychiatric disorders. The HLA-DPA1 eQTL is located within a large linkage disequilibrium block that has an irrefutable association with schizophrenia. Future tests in a larger cohort are needed to determine the significance of this eQTL association with schizophrenia. Our findings support the long held hypothesis that alterations in immune function are associated with the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders.

There were 20 anterior cingulate postmortem brain samples that were extracted for total RNA, and analyzed using Affymetrix Exon Array (bipolar disorder subjects n = 9, controls n = 11).

Project description:The Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) -region, especially HLA class I and II genes, plays a major role in the predisposition to autoimmune disorders. Particularly three HLA haplotypes, DRB1*03-DQA1*05-DQB1*02 (DR3-DQ2), DRB1*04:01-DQA1*03-DQB1*03:02 (DR4-DQ8) and DRB1*15-DQA1*01-DQB1*06:02 (DR2-DQ6), have an important role in many autoimmune diseases: for example, in type 1 diabetes (T1D) the DR2-DQ6 is associated with a strongly decreased T1D risk and the DR3-DQ2 and DR4-DQ8 are associated with a moderately increased T1D risk. To clarify the mechanisms behind this association, we examined genome-wide DNA methylation in CD4+ T cells and CD19+ B cells of healthy subjects homozygous either for DR3-DQ2 (n = 19), DR4-DQ8 (n = 17) or DR2-DQ6 (n = 14), and compared methylation between the genotypes. For the study, CD4+ T cells and CD19+ B cells were isolated consecutively from PBMC samples using magnetic bead separation. DNA was extracted from the cell lysates with AllPrep DNA/RNA/miRNA Universal Kit (Qiagen, Germany). Then the individual DNA samples were pooled into 11 pooled samples with 4–5 samples per pooled sample. The original 50 samples were designated pools based on age and sex to ensure that the age and sex distributions would be as similar as possible between the pooled samples. The mean age (±SD) in the three HLA-groups (DR2-DQ6, DR3-DQ2 and DR4-DQ8) were 15.0 (±8.3), 11.1 (±5.6) and 11.8 (±7.9) and their male to female ratios were 8/6, 9/10 and 11/6. Similar pooled samples were created for both the CD4+ T cell and the CD19+ B cell samples. Then DNA methylation was examined in the pooled CD4+ T cell and CD19+ B cell samples using Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation EPIC beadchip.
