Molecular Role of DNA Variants Associated with Crohn's Disease

ABSTRACT:

Crohn's disease (CD), one of the two major inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), results from an inappropriately directed inflammatory response to the enteric microbiota in a genetically susceptible host. Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have linked >200 specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to CD disease pathogenesis. Within these regions, there are over 5600 additional SNPs that are in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with the tag SNPs, and it is not known which of these contribute to CD. Most of these SNPs map to non-coding regions of the genome, suggesting that causal variants contribute to CD by modifying gene regulatory element activity. In ths study, we have generated genotype, open chromatin (FAIRE-seq), and transcriptome (RNA-seq) data from macroscopically uninflamed regions of colon tissue for 21 CD patients and 11 non-IBD controls. All patients are adults (>18 years old).

Inflammatory bowel disease risk loci overlap with DNA regulatory regions in immune cells and intestinal epithelium

Project description:Background & Aims: The contribution of genetics to the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been established by twin studies, targeted sequencing and genome-wide association studies (GWASs). This has yielded a plethora of risk loci with an aim to identify causal variants. Research on the genetic components of IBD has mainly focused on protein coding genes, thereby omitting other functional elements in the human genome i.e. the regulatory regions. Methods: Using acetylated histone 3 lysine 27 (H3K27ac) chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq), we identified tens of thousands of potential regulatory regions that are active in intestinal epithelium and immune cells, the main cell types involved in IBD. We correlated these regions with susceptibility loci for IBD. Results: We show that 45 out of 163 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with IBD co-localize with active regulatory elements. In addition, another 47 IBD associated SNPs co-localize with active regulatory element via other SNP in strong linkage disequilibrium. Altogether 92 out of 163 IBD-associated SNPs can be connected with distinct regulatory element. This is 2.5 to 3.5 times more frequent than expected from random sampling. The genomic variation in these SNPs often creates or disrupts known binding motifs - thereby possibly affecting the binding affinity of transcriptional regulators and altering the expression of regulated genes. Conclusions: We show that in addition to protein coding genes, non-coding DNA regulatory regions, active in immune cells and in intestinal epithelium, are involved in IBD.

The transcription start site and enhancer landscape of the descending colon in inflammatory bowel disease

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a common and chronic gut disorder, with two subtypes: Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), which are challenging to diagnose. The molecular pathology IBD is not well understood, and the underlying gene regulatory regions have not been comprehensively investigated. Relatedly, most IBD-associated SNPs are located in non-coding regions, and may effect gene regulation. Here, we profiled genome-wide promoter and enhancer activity in the descending colon of IBD patients. IBD-induced enhancer and promoters are highly enriched for IBD-associated SNPs, and can predict IBD diagnosis with an accuracy of 85% in an external cohort.

ATAC-seq on human pancreatic islets

Project description:We have studied the impact of T2D on open chromatin in human pancreatic islets. We used assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) to profile open chromatin in islets from T2D and non-diabetic donors. We identified ATAC-seq peaks representing open chromatin regions in islets of non-diabetic and diabetic donors. The majority of ATAC-seq peaks mapped near transcription start sites. Additionally, peaks were enriched in enhancer regions and in regions where islet-specific TFs bind. Islet ATAC-seq peaks overlap with SNPs associated with T2D and with additional SNPs in LD with known T2D SNPs. There was enrichment of open chromatin regions near highly expressed genes in human islets.

Altered microbiota-host mutualism and bloom of Atopobium define severe pediatric Crohn's disease

Project description:Microbial dysbiosis has been identified in adult inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. However, microbial composition and functional interplay between host genetics and microorganisms in early IBD onset remain poorly defined. Here, we identified and demonstrated the causal effect of Atopobium parvulum and the gut microbiota in pediatric IBD. Microbiota and proteomic profiling revealed that the abundance of A. parvulum, a potent H2S producer, was associated with increased disease severity and a concurrent reduction in the expression of the host H2S detoxification pathway. In the Il10-/- mouse model of inflammation, A. parvulum induced severe pancolitis that was dependent on the presence of the gut microbiota. In addition, we demonstrated that administration of bismuth, an H2S scavenger, prevented A. parvulum-induced colitis. Our findings identified Atopobium parvulum as a major mediator of inflammation severity, and revealed an alteration of the balance between the production and detoxification of H2S in the gastrointestinal tract.

Disease-Associated SNPs From non-Coding Regions in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis Are Located Within or Adjacent to Functional Genomic Elements of Human Neutrophils and CD4+ T Cells [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:We applied ChIP-Seq on two histone marks: H3K4me1 and H3K27ac in healthy human neutrophils. After peak calling, we obtained the peak regions enriched with H3K4me1 and H3K27ac histone marks and identifed aciive enhancers (H3K27ac+/H3K4me1+) and H3K27ac active enhancers (H3K27ac+/H3K4me1-) in human neutrophils and checked whether those enhancers are located in the LD blocks of 22 SNPs associtated with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis.

Differential early pathogenic changes in human ileal gene expression in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis

Project description:The aim of this study is to identify early pathogenic changes in ileal gene expression that precede the development of macroscopic disease in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). We focused on two IBD phenotypes that were unlikely to overlap: 1) ileal Crohn’s disease (CD) patients undergoing initial ileocolic resection of diseased ileum; and 2) ulcerative colitis (UC) patients undergoing total colectomy. The Control patients were those patients without IBD undergoing initial right hemicolectomy or total colectomy.
