The Genetic Basis of Preeclampsia in an Andean Population Adapted to High Altitude

Project description:To investigate the genetic basis of preeclampsia and its relationship to altitude, we characterized genetic diversity in a cohort of Andean families (N=883) from Puno, Peru, a high altitude city above 3,500 m. Our study collected genetic samples and medical records from case-control trios and duos, thus allowing for measurement of maternal, paternal and fetal genetic factors on preeclampsia risk. We generated high-density genotype data at over 400,000 positions across the genome, and used these data to determine ancestry patterns and map associations between genetic variants and preeclampsia phenotype. We also generated capture sequencing data from a subset of the study cohort focusing on genomic regions surrounding our top candidate hits.

Gene expression profiling under exposure to high altitude hypoxic environment

Project description:Understanding molecular mechanism associated with high altitude exposure during acclimatization/adaptation/maladaptation. Data reveals specific components of the complex molecular circuitry underlying high altitude pulmonary edema. Individualized outcome prediction were constructed through expression profiling of 39400 genes in sea level sojourners who were acclimatized to high altitude and grouped as controls (n=14), high altitude natives (n=14) and individuals who developed high altitude pulmonary edema within 48-72 hours after air induction to high altitude (n=17).

Comparative transcriptomic analysis provides insights into high-altitude adaptation

Project description:Purpose: High-altitude adaptive evolution of transcription, and the convergence and divergence of transcriptional alteration across species in response to high-altitude environments, is an important topic of broad interest to the general biology community. Our study aims to answer this important biological question. Methods: We generated deep transcriptome data of high- and low- altitude populations across four species: chicken, pig, goat and sheep, as well as high-altitude yak and low-altitude cattle, from six tissues (heart, kidney, liver, lung, skeletal muscle and spleen). Results: Here we provide a comprehensive comparative transcriptome landscape of expression and alternative splicing variation between low- and high-altitude populations across multiple species for distinct tissues. Conclusions: Our data serves a valuable resource for further study on adaptive transcription evolution and identification of candidate adaptive genes.

Moderate hypoxia influence at intermediate altitude in Argentinean Andes

Project description:This study evaluates genetic and phenotypic variation in the intermediate altitude CalchaquÃ population living in the CalchaquÃ Valleys of the Argentinean Andes in the town of Cachi at 2300 m. This study attempts to pinpoint evolutionary mechanisms underlying adaptation to moderate hypoxia at a intermediate altitude. DNA from 24 saliva samples of CalchaquÃes living at 2300 m in Cachi in the Province of Salta in Argentina was genotyped.

Circulating microRNAs reprogramming are involved in early acclimatization to high altitude in humans

Project description:Altitude acclimatization is the physiological process to restore oxygen delivery to the tissues and promote the oxygen application under high altitude hypoxia. High altitude illness could happen in individuals who did not get acclimatization. Unraveling the molecular underpinnings of altitude acclimatization would help people to understand the beneficial response of body to high altitude hypoxia and disturbed biological process in un-acclimatized individuals. Here, we measured physiological adjustments and circulating microRNAs (cmiRNAs) profiles of individuals exposed to high altitude to explore the altitude acclimatization in humans.
