Project description:We report a multiplex human pluripotent stem cell platform to investigate autism associated genetic variation during the development of the prefrontal cortex. This dataset represents the biological replicate datasets of our hPSC-derived prefrontal (PFC) and occipital (OCC) differentiation compared with neural stem cells (NSCs). We find that the top genes associated with PFC identity correlate well with in vivo PFC using the Allen Developmental Transcriptome data.

Project description:Objective: In order to personalize standard therapies based on molecular profiles, we previously classified colorectal cancers (CRCs) into five distinct subtypes (CRCAssigner) and later into four consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) with different prognoses and treatment responses. For clinical application, here we developed an inexpensive multiplex biomarker-based assay.Objective: In order to personalise standard therapies based on molecular profiles, we previously classified colorectal cancers (CRCs) into five distinct subtypes (CRCAssigner) and later into four consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) with different prognoses and treatment responses. For clinical application, here we developed a low-cost multiplex biomarker assay. Design: Three cohorts of untreated fresh frozen CRC samples (n = 57) predominantly from primary tumours and profiled by microarray/RNA-Seq were analysed. A reduced 38-gene panel (CRCAssigner-38) was selected from the published 786-gene CRCAssigner signature (CRCAssigner-786) using an in-house gene selection approach. A customised NanoString Technologies nCounter platform-based assay (NanoCRCAssigner) was developed for comparison with different classifiers (CMS subtypes), platforms (microarrays and RNA-Seq), and gene sets (CRCAssigner-38 and CRCAssigner-786). An additional cohort of fresh-frozen paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples (n = 24) was subtyped using NanoCRCAssigner as a proof-of-concept. Results: NanoCRCAssigner classified fresh frozen samples (n = 48; except those showing a mixture of subtypes) into all five CRCAssigner subtypes with overall high concordance across platforms (>87%) and with CMS subtypes (81%) irrespective of variable tumour cellularity. The association of subtypes with their known molecular (microsatellite-instable and stemness), mutational (KRAS/BRAF), and clinical characteristics (including overall survival) further demonstrated assay validity. To reduce costs, we switched from the standard protocol to a low-cost protocol with a high Pearson correlation co-efficient (0.9) between protocols. Technical replicates were highly correlated (0.98). FFPE samples were also successfully classified and showed high reproducibility (0.96).

Project description:Neurodevelopmental conditions with a genetic component, such as autism, are a highly heritable heterogeneous group. Large-scale genetic studies, predominantly focussing on simplex families and clinical diagnoses of autism have identified hundreds of genes associated with autism. Yet, the contribution of these classes of genes to multiplex families and autistic traits still warrants investigation. Here, we conducted whole-genome sequencing of 21 highly multiplex autism families, with at least three autistic individuals in each family, to prioritise genes associated with autism. Using a combination of both autistic traits and clinical diagnosis of autism, we identify rare variants in genes associated with autism, and related neurodevelopmental conditions in multiple families. We identify a modest excess of these variants in autistic individuals compared to individuals without an autism diagnosis. Finally, we identify a convergence of the genes identified in molecular pathways related to development and neurogenesis. In sum, our analysis provides initial evidence to demonstrate the value of integrating autism diagnosis and autistic traits to prioritise genes.

Project description:Autism is a clinically heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired social interactions, restricted interests, and repetitive behaviors. Despite significant advances in the genetics of autism, understanding how genetic changes perturb brain development and affect clinical symptoms remains elusive. Here, we present a multiplex human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) platform, in which 30 isogenic disease lines are pooled in a single dish and differentiated into prefrontal cortex (PFC) lineages to efficiently test early-developmental hypotheses of autism. We define subgroups of autism mutations that perturb PFC neurogenesis and are correlated to abnormal WNT/βcatenin responses. Class 1 mutations (8 of 27) inhibit while class 2 mutations (5 of 27) enhance PFC neurogenesis. Remarkably, autism patient data reveal that individuals carrying subclass-specific mutations differ clinically in their corresponding language acquisition profiles. Our study provides a framework to disentangle genetic heterogeneity associated with autism and points toward converging molecular and developmental pathways of diverse autism-associated mutations.

Project description:Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with pronounced heritability in the general population. This is largely attributable to effects of polygenic susceptibility, with inherited liability exhibiting distinct sex differences in phenotypic expression. Attempts to model ASD in human cellular systems have principally involved rare de novo mutations associated with ASD phenocopies. However, by definition, these models are not representative of polygenic liability, which accounts for the vast share of population-attributable risk. Methods: Here, we performed what is, to our knowledge, the first attempt to model multiplex autism using patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in a family manifesting incremental degrees of phenotypic expression of inherited liability (absent, intermediate, severe). The family members share an inherited variant of unknown significance in GPD2, a gene that was previously associated with developmental disability but here is insufficient by itself to cause ASD. iPSCs from three first-degree relatives and an unrelated control were differentiated into both cortical excitatory (cExN) and cortical inhibitory (cIN) neurons, and cellular phenotyping and transcriptomic analysis were conducted. Results: cExN neurospheres from the two affected individuals were reduced in size, compared to those derived from unaffected related and unrelated individuals. This reduction was, at least in part, due to increased apoptosis of cells from affected individuals upon initiation of cExN neural induction. Likewise, cIN neural progenitor cells (NPCs) from affected individuals exhibited increased apoptosis, compared to both unaffected individuals. Transcriptomic analysis of both cExN and cIN neural progenitor cells revealed distinct molecular signatures associated with affectation, including misregulation of suites of genes associated with neural development, neuronal function, and behavior, and altered expression of ASD risk-associated genes. Conclusions: We have provided evidence of morphological, physiologic, and transcriptomic signatures of polygenic liability to ASD from an analysis of cellular models derived from a multiplex autism family. ASD is commonly inherited on the basis of additive genetic liability. Therefore, identifying convergent cellular and molecular phenotypes resulting from polygenic and monogenic susceptibility may provide a critical bridge for determining which of the disparate effects of rare highly deleterious mutations might also apply to common autistic syndromes.
