Project description:Whole-transcriptome profiles of individual human placental villi samples from twenty-five (25) Indian women with normal pregnancies during 6- to 8-weeks of gestation were examined using human whole genome expression arrays (NimbleGen 135K). The present study focused on the whole-transcriptome profiling using NimbleGen135K (070925_HG18_exp__12X135K) human whole genome expression arrays of individual human placental villi samples obtained from twenty-five (25) proven-fertile women bearing normal pregnancies voluntarily terminated between 6- and 8-weeks of gestation. Gestational age was estimated from menstrual history, physical and ultrasonographic evaluation. No case of complicated pregnancy from infection, and other significant fetal and maternal clinical indications was included. These twenty five (25) samples include biological replicates of 6, 7 and 8 weeks placental villi samples.

Project description:Investigating Human Placentation and Pregnancy Using First Trimester Chorionic Villi

Project description:In the chorionic villi of placenta, trophoblasts and endothelial cells are present, and moreover mesenchymal cells (stromal cells) can be obtained. We generated cells with the mesenchymal phenotype from the chorionic mesoderm, and showed that: a) physiologically functioning cardiomyocytes were transdifferentiated from human placenta-derived chorionic villi cells, but these cells did not induce to osteoblasts and adipocytes ; b) the cardiomyogenic induction rate obtained using our system was relatively high compared to that obtained using the previously described method ; c) co-cultivation with fetal murine cardiomyocytes alone without transdifferentiation factors such as 5-azaC or oxytocin is sufficient for cardiomyogenesis in our system; d) Chorionic villi cells have the electrophysiological properties of 'working' cardiomyocytes. The chorionic mesoderm contained a large number of cells with a cardiomyogenic potential. Keywords: Cardiomyogenic induction

Project description:Pregnancy loss is often caused by chromosomal abnormalities of the conceptus. The prevalence of these abnormalities and the allocation of (ab)normal cells in embryonic and placental lineages during intrauterine development remain elusive. We analyzed 1,745 spontaneous pregnancy losses and found that roughly half (50.4%) of the products of conception (POC) were karyotypically abnormal, with maternal and paternal age independently contributing to the increased genomic aberration rate in pregnancy loss. We applied genome haplarithmisis to a subset of 94 pregnancy losses with normal parental and POC karyotypes. Genotyping of parental DNA as well as POC extraembryonic mesoderm and chorionic villi DNA, representing embryonic and trophoblastic tissues, enabled characterization of the genomic landscape of both lineages. Of these pregnancy losses, 35.1% had chromosomal aberrations not previously detected by karyotyping, increasing the rate of aberrations of pregnancy losses to 67.8% by extrapolation. In contrast to viable pregnancies where mosaic chromosomal abnormalities are often restricted to chorionic villi, such as confined placental mosaicism, we found a higher degree of mosaic chromosomal imbalances in extraembryonic mesoderm rather than chorionic villi in pregnancy losses. Our results stress the importance of scrutinizing the full allelic architecture of genomic abnormalities in pregnancy loss to improve clinical management and basic research of this devastating condition.

Project description:The study involves whole exome sequencing of 20 primary tumors obtained from lung squamous carcinoma patients of Indian origin. With this, we aim to describe the mutational profile of this specific subset of lung cancer patients. This knowledge will further allow us to gain an insight into potentially actionable genomic alterations prevalent in Indian lung squamous carcinoma.

Project description:Extensive genome analysis of pregnancy loss products by genome haplarithmisis. Pregnancy loss (PL) is the primary pregnancy complication, mostly caused by chromosomal abnormalities of the conceptus. However, the nature and prevalence of these abnormalities and the allocation of (ab)normal cells in embryonic and placental compartments during intrauterine development remains elusive. We analyzed 1,745 spontaneous PLs and found that ~50% were karyotypically normal. We applied genome haplarithmisis to 91 PL families with normal karyotypes, following whole-genome genotypes of the parents as well as of the extraembryonic mesoderm (EM) and chorionic villi (CV), representing embryonic and placental cells, of the product of conception (POC), which allowed characterizing genomic landscape of both lineages. 36.4% of these PLs have chromosomal aberrations not previously detected by karyotyping. In contrast to viable pregnancies where mosaic chromosomal abnormalities are often restricted to the CV, we find that in spontaneous abortions, the situation is reversed with a higher degree of mosaic chromosomal imbalances in EM rather than CV.

Project description:Cancer is predominantly a somatic disease. A mutant allele found in cancer cell genome is considered somatic when it is absent in paired normal genome and dbSNP, the most comprehensive public SNP database. However, dbSNP inadequately represents several non-Caucasian populations including that from the Indian subcontinent, posing a limitation in cancer genomic analyses of data from these populations. We present TMC-SNPdb, as the first open source freely accessible (through ANNOVAR), flexible and upgradable SNP database from whole exome data of 62 normal samples derived from cancer patients of Indian origin, representing 114,309 unique germline variants. TMC-SNPdb is presented with a companion subtraction tool that can be executed with command line option or an easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) with the ability to deplete additional Indian population specific SNPs over and above that possible with dbSNP and 1000 Genomes databases. Using an institutional generated whole exome data set of 132 samples of Indian origin, we demonstrate that TMC-SNPdb reduced 42%, 33% and 28% false positive somatic events post dbSNP depletion in Indian origin tongue, gallbladder, and cervical cancer samples, respectively. Beyond cancer somatic analyses, we anticipate utility of TMC-SNPdb in several Mendelian germline diseases.

Project description:Miscarriage occurs in 15-20% of clinical pregnancies. While chromosomal errors are observed in over 50%, causes of karyotypically normal losses are poorly understood. DNA methylation undergoes reprogramming during development and must be appropriately set to maintain a healthy pregnancy. We hypothesize that aberrant DNA methylation may cause karyotypically normal miscarriage, particularly among women experiencing recurrent miscarriage (RM). DNA methylation in first trimester chorionic villi was assessed in chromosomally normal miscarriages from women with RM (N=33) or isolated miscarriage (M, N=21), and elective terminations (TA, N=16). Differentially methylated candidate loci were identified using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChip array by comparing 10 RM to 10 TA samples. Follow up showed a significant increase in methylation in RM and M compared to TA placentae at the CYP1A2 (p=0.002) and AXL (p=0.02) promoters and decrease at the DEFB1 (p=0.008) promoter. Gene function analysis showed an enrichment of imprinted genes (p=9.53E-10) and genes previously associated with RM (p=9.51E-06). DNA methylation was evaluated at 7 imprinted loci using bisulfite pyrosequencing. An increase of outliers at these loci was observed in RM (3.9%) compared to M (0%) and TA (0.9%) (p=0.02), with increased average methylation at the H19/IGF2 ICR1 in M samples (p<0.0001). Altered DNA methylation in the placenta at specific loci, as well as global dysregulation in specific cases, may contribute to or be a consequence of placental insufficiency in karyotypically normal miscarriage. First-trimester placental villi samples from karyotypically normal miscarriages from recurrent miscarriage patients (N, N=10) and chromosomally normal elective terminations (PZET, N=10).

Project description:<p>Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is routinely used for prenatal diagnosis of cytogenetic disorders, but also possesses great potential for studying placentation. To better understand villi biology, human placentation, and how these relate to pregnancy outcomes, we examined the morphology and transcriptomes of villi obtained via CVS from 10-14 weeks of pregnancy and correlated these with pregnancy attributes and clinical outcomes.</p>
