Transcriptomic regulation in the NAcc, PL, and pVTA brain regions in heterogeneous stock rats [nucleus accumbens core]

ABSTRACT: To aid in the investigation of behavioral trait genetic associations, we collected RNA-seq from three brain regions of 200 genotyped outbred heterogeneous stock (HS) rats. We mapped molecular QTLs and conducted transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) involving a collection of 281 complex traits.

Transcriptomics of whole brain tissue in heterogeneous stock rats

Project description:Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) integrate genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and gene expression datasets to prioritize causal genes at GWAS loci. The NIDA center for genetic studies of drug abuse in outbred rats (P50DA037844) has collected genetic data from thousands of HS rats to perform GWAS on numerous behavioral traits that are relevant to substance use disorders. However, GWAS loci remain difficult to interpret. In this scenario, TWAS offer an orthogonal approach to prioritize causal variants. TWAS rely on a reference gene panel in which both gene expression in relevant tissues and genetic variation has been measured from the same individuals to learn per-gene predictive models of expression variation. This dataset will be used to generate transcriptomic phenotypes from brain tissues of naïve heterogeneous stock rats for use in molecular QTL mapping, TWAS reference panels, expression prediction, and other transcriptomic applications.

RNA-seq from heart tissue of 192 heterogeneous stock rats

Project description:We measured heart gene expression in 192 heterogeneous stock rats. These animals were part of a larger cohort that were extensively phenotyped and genotyped and originally published in PMID: 23708188, although the gene expression data here were not included in that study.

Mapping genotype-expression associations in Heterogeneous Stock rat brains to advance behavioral genetics research [Nucleus accumbens core]

Project description:Research into the genetic influences of impulsivity and reward motivated behavior relies heavily on outbred animal populations, including Heterogeneous Stock (HS) rats, for the genetic diversity necessary to identify genotype-trait associations. Many such associations have been detected, but it is not always clear which gene or other feature near the identified genomic location is functionally responsible for the association. Since these traits are in part mediated by gene expression, mapping the associations between genotype and gene expression in these animals will enable the discovery and deeper understanding of these trait associations. We therefore obtained genotypes and RNA-Seq gene expression for five brain regions from 88 HS rats and mapped expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) for each region. We identified cis-eQTLs in over 3,000 genes per brain region and validated their effect sizes using allele specific expression. This resource will enable new discoveries of the genetic influences of complex behavioral traits.

MF1 outbred stock liver gene expression data

Project description:Linkage analysis of complex traits in mice is a powerful tool to find loci affecting the phenotype but it has a poor resolution making it difficult to identify the underlying genes. We show here, using whole genome association analysis of gene expression traits in an outbred mouse population, the MF1 stock, that mapping resolution is greatly increased as compared to linkage. The fact that eQTLs discovered in other crosses were replicated and successfully mapped with high resolution in this population provides a strong proof of concept. In addition, we show that this population is a useful resource to resolve the eQTL hotspots detected in other studies. Finally, we highlight the importance of correcting for population structure in whole genome association studies in the outbred stock. Keywords: genetic association study in outbred mice
