Project description:The goal of the present study was to identify genetic variants that are associated with drug response of OCD patients. We performed a genome-wide association study of 96 OCD patients to examine genetic variants contributing to the drug response of OCD patients.

Project description:Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a severe mental disease manifested in time-consuming repetition of behaviors, affects 1-3% of the human population. While highly heritable, complex genetics has hampered attempts to elucidate OCD etiology. Dogs suffer from naturally occurring compulsive disorders that closely model human OCD, manifested as an excessive repetition of normal canine behaviors that only partially responds to drug therapy. The limited diversity within dog breeds makes identifying underlying genetic factors easier. We use genome wide association of 87 Doberman Pinscher cases and 63 controls to identify genomic loci associated with OCD and sequence these regions in 8 affected dogs from high-risk breeds and 8 breed-matched controls. We find 119 variants in evolutionarily conserved sites that are specific to dogs with OCD. These case-only variants are significantly more common in high OCD risk breeds compared to breeds with no known psychiatric problems. Four genes, all with synaptic function, have the most case-only variation: neuronal cadherin (CDH2), catenin alpha2 (CTNNA2), ataxin-1 (ATXN1), and plasma glutamate carboxypeptidase (PGCP). Two different case-only variants targeted the same approximately 500-bp highly conserved regulatory element between the cadherin genes CDH2 and DSC3. We functionally test these variants in a human neuroblastoma cell line and show that they cause significant changes in gene expression, likely due to disrupted transcription factor binding. This work demonstrates how we can use the unique genetics of dog breeds, and mechanistic similarities between human and dog diseases, to find genes and regulatory pathways underlying complex psychiatric disorders. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions. Genome wide association analysis was performed for 87 doberman pinshcers OCD cases and 63 breed-matched controls.

Project description:Astrocytes and neurons coexist and interact in the CNS1,2. Given that many signaling and pathological events are protein-driven, identifying astrocyte and neuron proteomes is essential for elucidating the complex protein networks that dictate their respective contributions to physiology and disease. Here, we used cell- and subcompartment-specific proximity-dependent biotinylation3 to study the proteomes of striatal astrocytes and medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in vivo. We evaluated cytosolic and plasma membrane compartments for astrocytes and MSNs, revealing how these cells differ at the protein level and in their core signaling machinery. We assessed subcellular compartments of astrocytes including end feet and processes to reveal the molecular basis of essential astrocyte signaling and homeostatic functions. Unexpectedly, SAPAP3 proteins (gene; Dlgap3) associated with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and repetitive behaviors4-11 were detected at equivalent levels in striatal astrocyte and MSN plasma membrane and cytosolic compartments. Astrocytic expression was confirmed by RNA-seq, fluorescence in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. Furthermore, genetic rescue experiments combined with behavioral analyses and proteomics in a mouse model4 of OCD lacking SAPAP3 revealed contributions of SAPAP3 in astrocytes and MSNs to repetitive and anxiety-related OCD behaviors. Our data define how astrocytes and neurons differ at the protein level and in their major signaling pathways, how astrocyte proteomes vary between physiological subcompartments, and how specific astrocyte and neuronal molecular mechanisms contribute to a psychiatric disease. Targeting both astrocytes and neurons together is likely to be therapeutically effective in complex CNS disorders.

Project description:A robust system using disease relevant cells to systematically evaluate the role in diabetes for loci identified through genome wide association studies (GWAS) is urgently needed. Toward this goal, we created isogenic mutant human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines in GWAS-identified candidate diabetes genes including CDKAL1, KCNQ1 and KCNJ11, and used directed differentiation to evaluate the function of derivative human beta-like cells. The mutations did not affect the generation of insulin+ cells, but impaired insulin secretion both in vitro and in vivo, coinciding with defective glucose homeostasis. CDKAL1-/- insulin+ cells also displayed hypersensitivity to lipotoxicity. A high-content chemical screen identified a candidate drug that rescued CDKAL1-/--specific defects by inhibiting the AP1 (FOS/JUN) pathway. These studies establish a platform using isogenic hESCs to evaluate the function of GWAS-identified loci, and identify a drug candidate that rescues gene-specific defects, paving the way to precision therapy of metabolic diseases.A robust system using disease relevant cells to systematically evaluate the role in diabetes for loci identified through genome wide association studies (GWAS) is urgently needed.

Project description:We investigated the sub-proteomes of different functional compartments in astrocyte and neurons in the striatum. We compared the proteomes to the cell-specific RNA profiles of neurons and astrocytes from these analyses. We found one gene and protein that was highly expressed in neurons and astrocytes called SAPAP3. Knockout of this gene product results in an OCD-like phenotype in mouse. RNA-seq of astrocytes and bulk RNA-seq analyses of this mouse model revealed very low DEGs.
