Genetic risk of osteoarthritis operates during human skeletogenesis

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a polygenic disease of older people resulting in the breakdown of cartilage within articular joints. Although a leading cause of disability, there are no disease-modifying therapies. Evidence is emerging to support the origins of OA in skeletogenesis. Whilst methylation QTLs (mQTLs) co-localizing with OA GWAS signals have been identified in aged human cartilage and used to identify effector genes and variants, such analyses have never been conducted during human development. Here, for the first time, we have investigated the developmental origins of OA genetic risk at seven well-characterized OA risk loci, comprising 39 OA-mQTL CpGs, in human fetal limb (FL) and cartilage (FC) tissues using a range of molecular genetic techniques. We compared our results to aged cartilage samples (AC) and identified significant OA-mQTLs at 14 CpGs and 29 CpGs in FL and FC tissues, respectively. Differential methylation was observed at 26 sites between fetal and aged cartilage, with the majority becoming actively hypermethylated in old age. Notably, 6/9 OA effector genes showed allelic expression imbalances during fetal development. Finally, we conducted ATAC-sequencing in cartilage from the developing and aged hip and knee to identify accessible chromatin regions, and found enrichment for transcription factor-binding motifs including SOX9 and FOS/JUN. For the first time, we have demonstrated the activity of OA-mQTLs and expression imbalance of OA effector genes during skeletogenesis. We show striking differences in the spatiotemporal function of these loci, contributing to our understanding of OA aetiology, with implications for the timing and strategy of pharmacological interventions.

Regulatory constraint and selection during human knee evolution drive modern osteoarthritis risk

Project description:The evolution of human bipedalism exposed the knee to unique biomechanical challenges, requiring changes in knee anatomy giving rise to the modern-day configuration. In order to better understand the relationship between derived knee morphology and the genetic factors associated with osteoarthritis risk, we performed epigenetic profiling of murine forelimb/hindlimb growth plates to identify regulatory elements shaping formation of specific knee structures, identifying signals of ancient positive selection upon which more recent genetic drift overlaps risk-associated loci. Our functional analyses of an osteoarthritis-risk variant within a reproducibly-associated locus establishes a novel model for studying this degenerative disease.

Predictive computational obesity risk framework through integration of gene expression profiles and genetic risk score.

Project description:We aimed to predict obesity risk with genetic data, specifically, obesity-associated gene expression profiles. Genetic risk score was computed. The genetic risk score was significantly correlated with BMI when an optimization algorithm was used. Linear regression and built support vector machine models predicted obesity risk using gene expression profiles and the genetic risk score with a new mathematical method.
