Project description:Microglia, the brain’s resident immune cells, play vital roles in brain development, and disorders like Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Human iPSC-derived microglia (iMG) provide a promising model to study these processes. However, existing iMG generation protocols face challenges, such as prolonged differentiation time, lack of detailed characterization, and limited gene function investigation via CRISPR-Cas9. In this study will generated iMG from human iPSCs using our newly developed protocol. We used single cell RNA-Seq to study the transcriptomic profiles of our newly formed iMG. The single cell RNA-Seq data under this accession is from wild type iMG (Hashtag 7) and OTHER KO iMG (Hashtag 8)

Project description:BackgroundMicroglia, the brain's resident immune cells, play vital roles in brain development, and disorders like Alzheimer's disease (AD). Human iPSC-derived microglia (iMG) provide a promising model to study these processes. However, existing iMG generation protocols face challenges, such as prolonged differentiation time, lack of detailed characterization, and limited gene function investigation via CRISPR-Cas9.MethodsOur integrated toolkit for in-vitro microglia functional genomics optimizes iPSC differentiation into iMG through a streamlined two-step, 20-day process, producing iMG with a normal karyotype. We confirmed the iMG's authenticity and quality through single-cell RNA sequencing, chromatin accessibility profiles (ATAC-Seq), proteomics and functional tests. The toolkit also incorporates a drug-dependent CRISPR-ON/OFF system for temporally controlled gene expression. Further, we facilitate the use of multi-omic data by providing online searchable platform that compares new iMG profiles to human primary microglia: https://sherlab.shinyapps.io/IPSC-derived-Microglia/ .ResultsOur method generates iMG that closely align with human primary microglia in terms of transcriptomic, proteomic, and chromatin accessibility profiles. Functionally, these iMG exhibit Ca2 + transients, cytokine driven migration, immune responses to inflammatory signals, and active phagocytosis of CNS related substrates including synaptosomes, amyloid beta and myelin. Significantly, the toolkit facilitates repeated iMG harvesting, essential for large-scale experiments like CRISPR-Cas9 screens. The standalone ATAC-Seq profiles of our iMG closely resemble primary microglia, positioning them as ideal tools to study AD-associated single nucleotide variants (SNV) especially in the genome regulatory regions.ConclusionsOur advanced two-step protocol rapidly and efficiently produces authentic iMG. With features like the CRISPR-ON/OFF system and a comprehensive multi-omic data platform, our toolkit equips researchers for robust microglial functional genomic studies. By facilitating detailed SNV investigation and offering a sustainable cell harvest mechanism, the toolkit heralds significant progress in neurodegenerative disease drug research and therapeutic advancement.

Project description:Genomic sequencing of many thousands of tumors has revealed many genes associated with specific types of cancer. Similarly, large scale CRISPR functional genomics efforts have mapped genes required for proliferation or survival in hundreds of cancer cell lines. Despite this, for specific disease subtypes, such as metastatic prostate cancer, it is likely that there exist many undiscovered tumor specific genetic dependencies, such as prostate cancer specific drivers, that represent drug targets. To identify such genetic dependencies, we performed genome-scale CRISPRi screens in metastatic prostate cancer models. We then created a pipeline in which we integrated publicly available pan-cancer functional genomics data with our metastatic prostate cancer functional and clinical genomics data to identify genes that can drive aggressive prostate cancer phenotypes. Our integrative analysis of these data revealed two known prostate cancer specific driver genes, AR and HOXB13, as the top two hits and also nominated a number of unexpected genes. In this study we highlight the strength of an integrated clinical and functional genomics pipeline and focus on two hit genes, KIF4A and WDR62. We demonstrate that both KIF4A and WDR62 drive aggressive prostate cancer phenotypes in vitro and in vivo in multiple models, irrespective of AR-status, and are also associated with poor patient outcome.

Project description:The aim of this work is to apply an integrated systems approach to understand the biological underpinnings of hip osteoarthritis that culminates in the need for total joint replacement (TJR). This study is a feasibility pilot that integrates functional genomics data from diseased and non-diseased tissues of OA patients who have undergone TJR. For each tissue, we characterised epigenetic marks (methylation), gene transcription (RNASeq) and expression (quantitative proteomics). We also generated genotype data on the HumanCoreExome array for each individual. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

Project description:An overall goal of functional genomics has been to measure the impact of variants on molecular endophenotypes (e.g. gene expression levels or the degree of TF binding) and relate this to organismal traits and disease phenotypes. However, all the experiments to date have been described relative to a generic reference genome, significantly hobbling their interpretation. Here, we describe a strategy for finding significant relationships between disease variation and genomic annotation via personal functional genomics, by performing personal genome sequencing and paired functional genomics experiments, on the same individual.
