Genome-wide analyses reveals an association between invasive urothelial carcinoma in the Shetland sheepdog, NIPAL1, and the MAPK signaling pathway

ABSTRACT: Naturally occurring canine invasive urinary carcinoma (iUC) closely mimics human high grade iUC in terms of age of onset, pathology, cellular and molecular features, metastatic profiles, and treatment response . Shetland sheepdogs (Shelties), the focus of this study, are a small herding breed and popular family pet. Multiple studies demonstrate their extraordinary disease risk, with one survey reporting that of 3359 Shelties, iUC comprised 12% of all Sheltie cancer diagnoses, which is six times the expected rate of 2% for all dogs. In this study we analyze one hundred Shelties and 55 dogs from closely related breeds and identify a single major risk locus associated with iUC, featuring NIPA-like domain containing 1 (NIPAL1), a strong candidate gene, and associated mutations. By segregating samples according to genotype, we identify six additional loci that modify individual disease risk when combined with a putative pathogenic protein altering mutation in NIPAL1. Merging the GWAS loci with tumor sequence identifies the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway as a key component of canine iUC genetic susceptibility.

Association analysis of invasive urinary carcinoma in the Shetland sheepdogs and related breeds.

Project description:Naturally occurring canine invasive urinary carcinoma (iUC) closely resembles human muscle invasive bladder cancer in terms of histopathology, metastases, response to therapy and, low survival rate. The heterogeneous nature of the disease has led to the association of large numbers of risk loci in humans, however most are of small effect. There exists a need for new and accurate animal models of invasive bladder cancer. In dogs, distinct breeds show markedly different rates of iUC, thus presenting an opportunity to identify additional risk factors and overcome the locus heterogeneity encountered in human mapping studies. In the association study presented here, inclusive of 100 Shetland sheepdogs and 58 dogs of other breeds, we identify a homozygous protein altering point mutation within the NIPAL1 gene which increases risk by eight-fold (OR=8.42, CI=3.12-22.71), accounting for nearly 30% of iUC risk in the Shetland sheepdog. Inclusion of six additional loci accounts for the majority of disease risk in the breed and explains nearly 75% of the phenotypes in this study. When combined with sequence data from tumors, we show that variation in the MAPK signaling pathway is an overarching cause of iUC susceptibility in dogs.

Mapping DNA structural variation in dogs

Project description:DNA structural variation (SV) comprises a major portion of genetic diversity, but its biological impact is unclear. We propose that the genetic history and extraordinary phenotypic variation of dogs make them an ideal mammal in which to study the effects of SV on biology and disease. The hundreds of existing dog breeds were created by selection of extreme morphological and behavioral traits. And along with those traits, each breed carries increased risk for different diseases. We used array CGH to create the first map of DNA copy number variation (CNV) or SV in dogs. The extent of this variation, and some of the gene classes affected, are similar to those of mice and humans. Most canine CNVs affect genes, including disease and candidate disease genes, and are thus likely to be functional. We identified many CNVs that may be breed or breed class specific. Cluster analysis of CNV regions showed that dog breeds tend to group according to breed classes. Our combined findings suggest many CNVs are (1) in linkage disequilibrium with flanking sequence, and (2) associated with breed specific traits. We discuss how a catalog of structural variation in dogs will accelerate the identification of the genetic basis of canine traits and diseases, beginning with the use of whole genome association and candidate CNV/gene approaches.

Transcriptomic profiling of canine osteosarcoma and non-malignant bone

Project description:Dogs develop osteosarcoma (OSA) and the disease process closely resembles that of human OSA. OSA has a poor prognosis in both species and disease free intervals and cure rates have not improved in recent years. Gene expression in canine OSAs was compared with non-tumor tissue utilising next generation RNA sequencing. The data provides novel insights into the molecular mechanisms of OSA in high risk breeds. This knowledge may inform development of prevention and treatment for OSA in dogs and supports the dog as a model of OSA in people.

Dataset #3 for genome-wide analysis of heritable dog osteosarcoma in 3 breeds

Project description:Osteosarcoma in dogs is a spontaneously occurring disease with a global tumor gene expression signature indistinguishable from human pediatric tumors and clinical progression is remarkably similar. Unlike human OS, canine OS is a highly heritable disease with some large and giant dog breeds at >10x increased risk. We did a genome wide association study of osteosarcoma using the Illumina CanineHD genotyping array in three breeds: greyhound (mortality from OS = 26%), rottweiler (17%) and Irish wolfhound (IWH, 21%) and identified 33 inherited risk loci explaining 55 to 85% of phenotype variance in each breed. Data created for a genome-wide association studio of heritable osteosarcoma risk factors in dogs, including 267 racing greyhounds (153 affected (A) + 114 unaffected (U)), 135 rottweilers (80 A + 55 U), 141 IWH (76 A + 65 U) and 19 AKC greyhounds using the Illumina CanineHD array (~170,000 SNPs genomewide)

Differential gene expression in the skin of dogs sensitized to the house dust mite Dermatophagoides farinae

Project description:Atopic dermatitis is a multifactorial allergic skin disease in humans and dogs. Genetic predisposition, immunologic hyperreactivity, a defective skin barrier and environmental factors play a role in its pathogenesis. The aim of this study was to analyze gene expression in the skin of dogs sensitized to house dust mite antigens. Skin biopsies were collected from six sensitized and six non-sensitized Beagle dogs from normal, non-treated skin before and six and 24 hours after challenge using skin patches with allergen or saline as a negative control. Transcriptome analysis was performed by the use of DNA microarrays and expression of selected genes was validated by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Expression data was compared between groups (unpaired design). After 24 hours 597 differentially expressed genes were detected, 361 with higher and 226 with lower mRNA concentration in allergen treated skin of sensitized dogs compared to their saline-treated skin and compared to the control specimens. Functional annotation clustering, pathway-and co-citation analysis showed, that the genes with increased expression were involved in inflammation, wound healing and immune response. In contrast, genes with decreased expression in sensitized dogs were associated with differentiation and barrier function of the skin. As the sensitized dogs did not show differences in the untreated skin compared to controls, inflammation after allergen patch test probably led to a decrease in the expression of genes important for barrier formation. Our results further confirm the similar pathophysiology of human and canine atopic dermatitis and revealed genes previously not known to be involved in canine atopic dermatitis. 60 canine (dog) skin tissue samples; six sensitized and six non-sensitized Beagle dogs; samples collected before (0h), 6h and 24h after challenge with allergen; samples collected from a skin area treated with saline and from an area treated with allergen
