Project description:Endometriosis is associated with increased risk of epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs). Using data from large endometriosis and EOC genome-wide association meta-analyses we estimate the genetic correlation and evaluate the causal relationship between genetic liability to endometriosis and EOC histotypes, and identify shared susceptibility loci. We estimate a significant genetic correlation (rg) between endometriosis and clear cell (rg=0.71), endometrioid (rg=0.48) and high-grade serous (rg=0.19) ovarian cancer, associations supported by Mendelian randomization analyses. Bivariate meta-analysis identify 28 loci associated with both endometriosis and EOC, including 19 with evidence for a shared underlying association signal. Differences in the shared risk suggest different underlying pathways may contribute to the relationship between endometriosis and the different histotypes. Functional annotation using transcriptomic and epigenomic profiles of relevant tissues/cells highlights several target genes. This comprehensive analysis reveals profound genetic overlap between endometriosis and EOC histotypes with valuable genomic targets for understanding the biological mechanisms linking the diseases.

Project description:Prostate cancer (PrCa) manifests substantial variation in incidence rates among distinct populations. African American (AA) men are more likely to be diagnosed with and die from PrCa than European American (EA) men. Despite ongoing advancements in identifying polygenic risk variants from large genome-wide association study (GWAS) cohorts, the genetic mechanisms underlying the higher prevalence of PrCa in AA men remain unclear. A systematic approach that does not rely on extensive cohorts to identify causal regulatory variants contributing to PrCa development is still lacking. Here, by employing a sequence-based deep learning model of prostate regulatory enhancers, we identified ~2,000 essential SNPs (eSNPs) with increased alternative allele frequency in AA and which potentially affect the enhancer function leading to greater PrCa susceptibility. The identified eSNPs potentially mediate PrCa development through two complementary mechanisms: alternative alleles with increased enhancer activity are associated with immune system suppression, while those with decreased enhancer activity are linked to differentiation processes. Interestingly, the eSNPs disrupt the binding of key prostate transcription factors including FOX, AR and HOX families, collectively contributing to PrCa predisposition. Together these eSNPs can be used to assess polygenic risk score that is more effective than previous GWAS-based risk scores in distinguishing individuals with PrCa from the control.

Project description:To assess differential gene expression by APOL1 renal-risk (2 risk alleles) vs. non-risk (G0G0) genotypes in primary proximal tubule cells (PTCs), global gene expression (mRNA) levels were examined on Affymetrix HTA 2.0 arrays in primary PTCs cultured from non-diseased kidney in African Americans without CKD who underwent nephrectomy for localized renal cell carcinoma. To detect differentially expressed gene profiles attributable to APOL1 renal-risk genotypes, African American primary proximal tubule cells with two APOL1 renal-risk alleles (N=5) and lacking renal-risk alleles (N=25) were included in comparisons of global gene expression.

Project description:Background: Most skin-related traits have been studied in Caucasian genetic backgrounds. A comprehensive study on skin-associated genetic effects on underrepresented populations such as Vietnam is needed to fill the gaps in the field. Objectives: We aimed to develop a computational pipeline to predict the effect of genetic factors on skin traits using public data (GWAS catalogs and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from the 1000 Genomes Project-1KGP) and in-house Vietnamese data (WGS and genotyping by SNP array). Also, we compared the genetic predispositions of 25 skin-related traits of Vietnamese population to others to acquire population-specific insights regarding skin health. Results: The skin-related genetic profile of Vietnamese cohorts was similar at most to East Asian cohorts (JPT: Fst=0.036, CHB: Fst=0.031, CHS: Fst=0.027, CDX: Fst=0.025) in the population study. In addition, we identified pairs of skin traits at high risk of frequent co-occurrence (such as skin aging and wrinkles (r = 0.45, p =1.50e-5) or collagen degradation and moisturizing (r = 0.35, p = 1.1e-3)).

Project description:Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have boosted our knowledge of genetic risk variants in autoimmune diseases (AIDs). Most of the risk variants are located within or near genes with immunological functions, and the majority is found to be non-coding, pointing towards a regulatory role. We have performed a cis expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) screen to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with AIDs influence gene expression in thymus. Genotyping was performed using the Immunochip and 353 AID associated SNPs were tested against expression of surrounding genes (+/- 1 Mb) from human thymic tissue (N=42). We identified eight genes where the expression was associated with AID risk SNPs at a study-wide level of significance (P < 2.57x10-5). Five genes (FCRL3, RNASET2, C2orf74, SIRPG and SYS1) displayed cis eQTL signals also in other tissues, while for two loci (NPIPB8 and LOC388814), the eQTL signal appear to be thymus-specific. Since many AID risk variants from GWAS have been subsequently fine-mapped in recent Immunochip projects, we explored the overlap between these novel AID risk variants and the thymic eQTL regions. Moreover, we examined the functional annotation of the seven expression altering SNPs (eSNPs). Our study reveals autoimmune risk variants that act as eQTLs in thymus. We have highlighted functional variants within these genetic regions that potentially can represent causal autoimmune risk variants. Total RNA from 42 human thymic samples were obtained from children undergoing cardiac surgery.

Project description:Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEXS) is a late-onset disorder in which fibrillar material accumulates at abnormally high concentrations mainly in the anterior segment of the eye. PEXS is the most common cause of secondary glaucoma, which can ultimately lead to blindness and is associated with a higher risk of cataract and serious complications following different types of intraocular surgery. Although PEXS clearly has a genetic component, it remains poorly explored. In our genome-wide association study, we searched for an association of genetic variants with this disorder among older Poles with PEXS without glaucoma.

Project description:Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory, pruritic disease of the skin with a complex etiology involving environmental and genetic factors. Numerous genetic risk loci for AD have been nominated through genome-wide association studies, with most associated variants residing in non-coding regions. However, further work is needed to understand how genetic variation contributes to disease-related alterations to gene expression. Objective Here, we use massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs) to identify genetic risk variants with genotype-dependent regulatory activity within a set of 2,381 variants distributed among 49 independent atopic dermatitis risk loci. Methods We employed our MPRA library in HaCaT skin keratinocytes, TE-7 esophageal epithelial cells, and Jurkat T cells, enabling the identification of shared and cell-type specific variants with genotype-dependent enhancer activity. Stimulation of HaCaT and TE-7 cells with the cytokine IL-13 revealed 14 variants with stimulation-dependent allelic expression patterns, elucidating a likely role for genotypic variation in Th2-mediated inflammatory signaling in AD. Results In total, our approach discovered 96 allelic enhancer variants among all investigated cellular contexts, representing 32 independent AD risk loci. We discover a possible mechanistic role for AP-1 family transcription factors, as revealed by motif enrichment, genotype-dependent binding, and enhanced ChIP-seq signal at AD risk variants with allelic enhancer activity compared to variants with non-allelic enhancer activity. We assign allelic enhancer variants to probable target genes, including previously identified risk genes such as KIF3A and FLG. Conclusion Collectively, our systematic, genome-scale approach implicates causal genotype-dependent gene regulatory mechanisms for the majority of AD risk loci, providing a unique resource for the discovery of the genetic mechanisms underlying this chronic inflammatory disease.
