Project description:We investigated genome-wide gene alterations in the temporal cortex of a well-characterized cohort of AlzheimerM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease (AD) patients using Affymetrix exon arrays. The AD patients and controls are subjects originally recruited into OPTIMA (Oxford Project to Investigate Memory and Ageing). Subjects underwent annual clinical and neuropsychological assessments, including the Cambridge Cognitive Examination (CAMCOG). Among subjects who died with autopsy consent given by next of kin, 1 cm3 blocks of grey matter from BA22 were dissected from fresh frozen brains of AD subjects. Tissues from elderly controls, followed longitudinally in life and with CAMCOG scores >80 at the last assessment before death, were collected. Affymetrix exon array was carried out in 8 control and 8 AD samples. The samples processed in each hybridization run were matched for AD vs. control, sex and postmortem interval (PMI) as far as possible. This submission includes the gene-level analysis.

Project description:Gene expression studies are used to help identify disease-associated genes, by comparing the levels of expressed transcripts between cases and controls, and to identify functional genetic variants known as expression quantitative loci (eQTLs). While many of these studies are performed in blood or lymphoblastoid cell lines due to tissue accessibility, the relevance of expression differences in tissues that are not the primary site of disease is unclear. Further, many eQTLs are tissue specific. Thus, there is a clear and compelling need to conduct gene expression studies in tissues that are specifically relevant to the disease of interest. One major technical concern about using autopsy-derived tissue is how representative it is of physiologic conditions, given the effect of postmortem interval on tissue degradation. In this study, we monitored the gene expression of 13 tissue samples harvested from a rapid autopsy heart (non-failed heart) and 7 from a cardiac explant (failed heart) through 24 hours of autolysis. The 24 hour autopsy simulation design reflects a typical autopsy scenario where a body may begin cooling to ambient temperature for ~12 hours, before transportation and storage in a refrigerated room in a morgue. In addition, we also simulated a scenario wherein the body was left at room temperature for up to 24 hours before being found.

In addition, we also simulated a scenario wherein the body was left at room temperature for up to 24 hours before being found. RNA from the 20 samples and triplicate from the HeLa cell line were run on the Affymetrix Exon arrays according to the manufacturer's protocol. The expression profiles of 7 cardiac tissue samples from the cardiac transplant operation (explant/failed heart) and 13 from a rapid-autopsy program (autopsy/non-failed heart) were harvested under the cold- and warm-24 hour autolysis conditions. The 7 explant samples include - 2 biological replicates at 0 hr, 1 at 6 hrs, 1 at 12 hrs, 2 biological replicates at 18 hr cold-autolysis condition and 1 at 18 hr warm-autolysis condition. The 13 autopsy samples include - 3 biological replicates at 0 hr (2 from the left and 1 from the right ventricle), 1 at 6 hrs, 2 biological replicates at 12 hrs (1 from the left and 1 from the right ventricle), 3 biological replicates at 18 hr cold-autolysis condition (2 from the left and 1 from the right ventricle), 2 biological replicates at 18 hr warm-autolysis condition ( 1 from the left and 1 from the right ventricle), 1 at 24 hr cold-autolysis condition and 1 at 24 hr warm-autolysis condition. Gene expression profiles of triplicate liver and heart exon array data obtained from Affymetrix were also used as reference .

Project description:Ex vivo large-scale proteomic analysis using LC-MS/MS in postmortem brains of patients with substance use disorder and controls. Brain tissue was collected postmortem after consent from the next of kin. As part of the clinical information, medical records were obtained and a detailed psychological autopsy was performed on all participants by interviewing the next-of-kin. Information regarding the psychiatric clinical phenotypes (evidence of depression, mania, and psychosis) stressful life events, age of drug use onset, types of drugs used, smoking and drinking history, and any co-morbidities, was obtained. A diagnosis of substance use disorder was confirmed based on the psychological autopsy, detailed medical records, and review of all relevant case information by three psychiatrists at a consensus meeting. The cause of death was obtained from the medical examiner’s report and toxicological findings after death.
