Ethnicity-specific Skeletal Muscle Transcriptional Signatures and Their Relevance to Insulin Resistance in Singapore

Project description:Context: Insulin resistance (IR) and obesity differ between ethnic groups in Singapore, with discordant rates of obesity and IR between several ethnic groups. However, the molecular basis underlying these differences are not clear. Objective: As the skeletal muscle (SM) is metabolically relevant to IR, we investigated molecular pathways in SM that are associated with ethnic differences in IR, obesity and related traits. Design, Setting and Main Outcome measures: We integrated transcriptomic, genomic and phenotypic analyses in 156 healthy subjects representing three major ethnicities in the Singapore Adult Metabolism Study. Patients: The study contains Chinese (n=63), Malay (n=51) and Asian-Indian (n=42) males, aged 21-40 years, without systemic diseases. Results: We found remarkable diversity in the SM transcriptome between the three ethnicities with >8,000 differentially expressed genes (40% of all genes expressed in SM). Comparison with blood transcriptome from a separate Singaporean cohort showed that >95% of SM expression differences between ethnicities were unique to SM. We identified a network of 46 genes that were specifically down-regulated in Malays, suggesting dysregulation of components of cellular respiration in SM of Malay individuals. We also report 28 differentially expressed gene-clusters, four of which were also enriched for genes that were found in GWAS of metabolic traits and disease and correlated with variation in IR, obesity and related traits. Conclusion: We identified extensive gene expression changes in SM between the three Singaporean ethnicities, and report specific genes and molecular pathways that might underpin and explain the differences in IR between these ethnic groups.

Gene expression profiles associated with humoral response to influenza vaccine, Vaxigrip, in young and elderly subjects of Chinese ethnicity in Singapore

Project description:While studying influenza vaccine-induced responses, the elderly are typically considered as a homogeneous population. However, chronological age alone is insufficient in defining immune responsiveness of individuals. In this study, a stratified cohort of elderly (65 year old and above) and young (below 35 year old) individuals was recruited to study the heterogeneity of influenza vaccine-induced responses and identify innate signatures including gene expression profiles defining vaccine immunogenicity. The study was conducted in Singapore, a tropical setting without well-defined influenza seasons.

Accurate ethnicity prediction from placental DNA methylation data

Project description:The influence of genetics on DNA methylation (DNAme) variation is well documented, yet confounding from population stratification is often unaccounted for in DNAme association studies. Existing approaches have been developed to address confounding by population stratification by directly using DNAme data, but have not been validated in additional human populations or tissues, such as the placenta. Results: To aid future placental DNAme studies in assessing population stratification, we developed an ethnicity classifier, PLANET (placental elastic net DNAme ethnicity classifier), on combined Infinium Human Methylation 450k BeadChip array (HM450k) data from placental samples. We used data from five North American cohorts from private and public repositories (n = 509) and show that PLANET can not only accurately predict (accuracy = 0.9379, kappa = 0.8227) major classes of self-reported ethnicity/race (African: n = 58, Asian: n = 53, Caucasian: n = 389), but can also produce probabilities that are highly correlated with genetic ancestry inferred from genome-wide SNP (>2.5 million SNP) and ancestry informative markers (n=50) data. We found that PLANET’s ethnicity classification relies on 1860 DNAme microarray sites, and over half of these were also linked to nearby genetic polymorphisms (n=955). Lastly, we found our placental-optimized method outperforms existing approaches in assessing population stratification in our placental samples from individuals of Asian, African, and Caucasian ethnicities. Conclusion: PLANET outperforms existing methods and heavily relies on the genetic signal present in DNAme microarray data. PLANET can be used to address population stratification in future placental DNAme association studies, and will be especially useful when ethnicity information is missing and genotyping markers are unavailable.

Epigenome-Wide Methylation Profile in sustemic lupus erythematosus: Impact of ethnicity and SLEDAI score

Project description:Epienome-wide DNA methylation profiling of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The Illumina HumanMethylation450K Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 450,000 CpGs in normal human blood samples from females. Samples included 33 non-SLE female patients (control) and 57 SLE female patients. SLE patients:- Ethnicity included 39 African americans and 18 European Americans. SLEDAI score ranged from 2-30. Non-SLE pateients:-Ethnicity indclued 17 African Americans and 16 European Americans, all with a SLEDAI score of zero.
