Project description:The aim of the current study is to establish the effect of excess body wiehgt and liver fat on plasma proteomic profile without interference from genetic variation. Label-free proteomics (HDMSE) was performed on plasma samples of young healthy monozygotic twins who were discordant for BMI. the twins were further subdivided into groups of liver fat discordant and liver fat concordant to see the efefct fo liver fat on plasma proteomic signature.

Project description:The expression level for 15 887 transcripts in lymphoblastoid cell lines from 19 monozygotic twin pairs (10 male, 9 female) were analysed for the effects of genotype and sex. On an average, the effect of twin pairs explained 31% of the variance in normalized gene expression levels, consistent with previous broad sense heritability estimates. The effect of sex on gene expression levels was most noticeable on the X chromosome, which contained 15 of the 20 significantly differentially expressed genes. A high concordance was observed between the sex difference test statistics and surveys of genes escaping X chromosome inactivation. Notably, several autosomal genes showed significant differences in gene expression between the sexes despite much of the cellular environment differences being effectively removed in the cell lines. A publicly available gene expression data set from the CEPH families was used to validate the results. The heritability of gene expression levels as estimated from the two data sets showed a highly significant positive correlation, particularly when both estimates were close to one and thus had the smallest standard error. There was a large concordance between the genes significantly differentially expressed between the sexes in the two data sets. Analysis of the variability of probe binding intensities within a probe set indicated that results are robust to the possible presence of polymorphisms in the target sequences. Keywords: Monozygotic twin pair Expression Profiles Genome-wide gene expression in lymphoblastoid cell lines was determined using microarrays derived from 15 monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs (10 male, 9 female). 10 twin pair are discordant, 4 are concordant for a disease phenotype and their are 5 controls which have no disease phenotype. This data set was analyzed to interrupt replicated effects of sex and genotype, not disease characteristics. Subsets of these samples have been analyzed separately for disease characteristics, (GSE7036 M-bM-^@M-^S 3 MZ twins discordant for bipolar disorder) and (GSE7486 - 5 discordant and 4 concordant MZ twin pairs with idiopathic absence epilepsies and 5 unaffected MZ twin pairs).

Project description:Human intelligence demonstrates one of the highest heritabilities among human quantitative traits. Phenotypically discordant monozygotic twins provide a way to identify loci responsible for normal-range intelligence. We conducted array-based genome-wide gene expression analysis aiming to identify genes displaying significant difference among monozygotic twin pairs manifesting between-co-twins IQ differences. Total RNA was isolated from B-lymphoblastoid cell lines and applied to Affymetirx arrays after reverse transcription. 17 twin pairs (34 subjects) were recruited in this study.

Project description:Objective: To identify genes involved in idiopathic absence epilepsies by analysing gene expression using a monozygotic (MZ) twin design. Methods: Genome-wide gene expression in lymphoblastoid cell lines was determined using microarrays derived from five discordant and four concordant MZ twin pairs with idiopathic absence epilepsies and five unaffected MZ twin pairs. Gene expression was analysed using three strategies: discordant MZ twins were compared as matched pairs, MZ twins concordant for epilepsy were compared to control MZ twins, and a singleton design of affected versus unaffected MZ twin individuals was used irrespective of twin pairing. An overlapping gene list was generated from these analyses. Dysregulation of genes recognised from the microarray experiment were validated using quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) in the twin sample and in an independent sample of 18 sporadic absence cases and 24 healthy controls. Results: Sixty-five probe sets were identified from the microarray analysis strategies. Sixteen genes were chosen for validation and nine of these genes confirmed by qRT-PCR in the twin sample. Differential expression of the immediate early gene EGR1 and RCN2, coding for the calcium-binding protein Reticulocalbin 2, was re-confirmed by qRT-PCR in the independent sample. Interpretation: Using a unique sample of discordant MZ twins, our study identified genes with altered expression, which suggest novel mechanisms in idiopathic absence epilepsy. Dysregulation of EGR1 and RCN2 might represent common transcriptional alterations in idiopathic absence epilepsy.

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling with the HumanMethylation450 BeadChip (450k) of peripheral blood samples of 46 adult female monozygotic twin-pairs obtained at the same time point. Samples included 41 healthy females (not diagnosed with cancer to date) paired with their co-twin diagnosed with cancer within a 5 year window around the time of sampling as well as 5 extra pairs with a co-twin diagnosed with cancer within 11 to 5 years prior to blood sampling.

Project description:The humanized mice's frontal cortical tissues were used for transcriptomic analysis, as this brain area shows early involvement in pathophysiology of schizophrenia. We transplanted hiPSC-astrocyte progenitors from one monozygotic twin pair discordant for schizophrenia and one healthy control into neonatal mouse forebrains and analyzed mouse behavior at five and ten months, followed by gene expression profiling of the frontal cortices seven days later.

Project description:Juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) is an aggressive myeloproliferative neoplasm of early childhood with a poor survival rate thus there is a requirement for improved treatment strategies. Induced pluripotent stem cells offer the ability to model disease and develop new treatment strategies. JMML is frequently associated with mutations in PTPN11. Children with Noonan syndrome, a development disorder, have an increased incidence of JMML associated with specific germline mutations in PTPN11. We undertook a proteomic assessment of myeloid cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells obtained from Noonan syndrome patients with PTPN11 mutations, either associated or not associated with increased incidence of JMML. We report that the proteomic perturbations induced by the leukaemia-associated PTPN11 mutations are associated with TP53 and NF-ĸb signalling. We have previously shown that MYC is involved in the differential gene expression observed in Noonan syndrome patients associated with increased incidence of JMML. Thus, we employed drugs to target these pathways and demonstrate differentential effects on clonogenic hematopoietic cells derived from Noonan syndrome patients whom develop JMML and those who do not. Further, we demonstrated these small molecular inhibitors, JQ1 and CBL0137, preferentially extinguish primitive haematopoietic cells from sporadic JMML patients as opposed to cells from healthy individuals.
