Genetics of Lymphatic Anomalies from CAG

ABSTRACT:

Lymphatic anomaly, a rare and devastating disease spectrum of mostly unknown etiologies, is characterized by diffuse or multicentric proliferation of dilated lymphatic vessels, and includes a variety of diagnoses: lymphangiectasia, central conducting lymphatic anomaly, generalized lymphatic anomaly, kaposiform lymphangiomatosis, and Gorham Stout disease. Currently, most treatments are considered palliative; lymphatic anomalies are often chronic debilitating conditions that require multiple yearly outpatient visits and hospital admissions for procedures that ameliorate symptoms, but do not correct the underlying cause. Identifying the causal genes will be hugely informative for our understanding of diseases. This will also allow for the development of affordable and successful diagnostic tests and therapies in keeping with "precision medicine" implementation.

Transcriptomic analysis of plasma extracellular vesicles from patients with ischemic stroke of different etiologies undergoing mechanical thrombectomy

Project description:INTRODUCTION: Accurate ischemic stroke (IS) etiologic diagnosis provides an appropriate secondary prevention strategy and better outcome. Currently, 45% of IS are cryptogenic urging to find novel approaches to enhance diagnostic precision and secondary stroke prevention. OBJETIVE: To study the transcriptomic content of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) to delineate the molecular profile and potential biomarkers of IS etiologies. RESULTS:21 consecutive patients with moderate or severe ischemic stroke (IS) and different IS etiologies were included to perform the transcriptomic analysis of plasma EVs comprising: atherothrombotic (AT, n=6), Cardioembolic (CE, n=10), and embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS, n=5). The RNASeq analysis of EVs detected clusters of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to IS etiologies.

Molecular classification of tumour cells in a patient with intravascular large B-cell lymphoma

Project description:Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) is a rare type of extranodal LBCL. It is characterized by the proliferation of tumour cells exclusively intraluminally in small blood vessels of different organs. We used microarray-based analysis of gene expression of tumour cells isolated from a patient with primary manifestation of the lymphoma in the skin and compared it with various other diffuse LBCLs (DLBCLs) as well as a previously published DLBCL classifier.

Multi-Omics’ Defines Unstable and Stable Atherosclerotic Plaque Signatures and Identifies Novel Targets for Plaque Stabilisation

Project description:The rupture of unstable atherosclerotic plaques, leading to debilitating or fatal thrombotic events, are a major health concern worldwide. Limited understanding as to the molecular drivers of plaque destabilisation and rupture hinders efforts in diagnosis and treatment prior to thrombotic events. Using an advanced pre-clinical model (tandem stenosis), we characterise the molecular signatures associated with plaque instability in atherosclerotic vessels.

De novo metatranscriptome assembly and coral gene expression profile of Montipora capitata with growth anomaly

Project description:Purpose: There is a dearth of knowledge regarding the molecular pathology of growth anomaly in corals. We investigated the gene expression profile of Montipora capitata metatranscriptomes from healthy and diseased (growth anomaly) coral colonies to elucidate differentially expressed genes. Methods: mRNA profiles of coral tissue (including symbionts) were generated from three different tissue states: healthy, affected and unaffected. Healthy tissue was collected from coral colonies not affected by growth anomaly. Affected tissue was collected from coral growth anomaly lesions. Unaffected tissue was collected from coral colonies affected by growth anomaly.

Circulating microRNA profiling in diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas

Project description:Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) identifies gliomas originating in the thalami, brainstem, cerebellum and spine. Within this entity, tumours that infiltrate the pons, called diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs), have a rapid onset and devastating neurological symptoms. Radiotherapy is the only intervention that is able to modify the disease course, albeit not in a curative way. In recent years, liquid biopsies have represented the next step in clinical diagnostics due to their easily accessible nature. The purpose of this study is to profile circulating miRNA expression to disclose a potential prognostic signature with clinical impact.

Single-cell sequencing reveals homogeneity and heterogeneity in the molecular cytopathological mechanisms of AKI caused by different etiologies

Project description:We constructed single-cell atlases of AKI induced by different etiologies, revealed potential homogeneity of injury patterns and heterogeneity between models in AKI. Extensive cell death and cytoskeletal remodeling events in proximal tubular cells (PTCs) as well as aberrant proliferation and inflammation of endothelial cells (ECs) in AKI are common injury patterns across different AKI models. However, there are differences in injury outcomes in PTCs with different etiologies, and ECs also have distinct transcriptional profiles.

Brugia malayi mature vs immature microfilariae

Project description:Filarial nematodes are arthropod-borne nematodes that cause a variety of economically important diseases such as onchocerciasis (river blindness), lymphatic filariasis, and heartworm disease. The most widespread filarial disease of humans is lymphatic filariasis, caused by worms in the genera Wuchereria and Brugia. Lymphatic filariasis is an economic and social burden in endemic countries and affects approximately 119 million people worldwide (Michael, 1997). In humans, the worms live in and block the lymph vessels, causing improper flow of lymph, and inflammation of the lymphatic system. The symptoms are fever, swollen limbs and genitals, generalized malaise, and can progress to a debilitating condition known as elephantiasis This research focuses on the transmission of these worms to the disseminating mosquito host, and it is based on the interesting observation that mf must be at least 7 days old to successfully infect the mosquito (de Hollanda, 1982). Newborn mf that have not âmaturedâ cannot successfully penetrate the midgut of the mosquito, and subsequently cannot develop to the L3 stage (Fuhrman, 1987). Previous work done by another group 20 years ago suggests that the molecular makeup of the worm surface changes during this maturation process (Furman, 1983 a and b). We used microarray analysis to characterize changes in gene expression that take place during the mf maturation process. Understanding the gene expression changes that occur as the mf mature will allow us to understand the nature of the philological transition that allows mf to move from the human to the mosquito host. With this information in hand, we can eventually identify parasite molecules that could be targeted to either stop parasite reproduction or prevent transmission of the mf to the mosquito. This would stop parasite transmission in endemic areas. Two biological replicates were performed each with two technical replicates.

Single cell RNA-seq profiling of patient-derived Merkel cell carcinoma tumor samples

Project description:Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), a rare but aggressive neuroendocrine cancer of the skin, remains a challenge in the era of precision medicine. MCC tumor heterogeneity has been attributed to the variant disease etiologies, mediated by either UV exposure or Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV). However, over the years it has become clear that these two groups are largely similar in clinical presentation, prognosis, and treatment response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors. We therefore dissected the transcriptomic heterogeneity of a panel of patient tumors samples, at the single-cell resolution, to gather further insights.
