Reverse gene-environment interaction approach to identify variants influencing body mass index in humans

Project description:Here we derive candidate gene-environment interaction (GxE) variants from promoter-enhancer interacting regions that respond to dietary fatty acid challenge through altered chromatin accessibility in human primary adipocytes, and demonstrate that molecular genomics data produced in physiologically relevant contexts can illuminate new functional GxE mechanisms in humans and identify variants for GxE testing in large biobanks.

Reverse gene-environment interaction approach to identify variants influencing body-mass index in humans.

Project description:Identifying gene-environment interactions (GxEs) contributing to human cardiometabolic disorders is challenging. Here we apply a reverse GxE candidate search by deriving candidate variants from promoter-enhancer interactions that respond to dietary fatty acid challenge through altered chromatin accessibility in human primary adipocytes. We then test all variants residing in the lipid-responsive open chromatin sites within adipocyte promoter-enhancer contacts for interaction effects between the genotype and dietary saturated fat intake on body mass index (BMI) in the UK Biobank. We discover 14 novel GxE variants in 12 lipid-responsive promoters, including well-known lipid genes (LIPE, CARM1, and PLIN2) and novel genes, such as LDB3, for which we provide further functional and integrative genomics evidence. We further identify 24 GxE variants in enhancers, totaling 38 new GxE variants for BMI in the UK Biobank, demonstrating that molecular genomics data produced in physiologically relevant contexts can discover new functional GxE mechanisms in humans.

Whole Sequencing Of The Mitochondrial Genome Of Breast Tumor Tissue In Mexican-Mestizo Postmenopausal Women, With Different Body Mass Index

Project description:Mitochondrial and oxidative stress have been related to obesity and breast cancer, and this cancer is more frequent and more aggressive in postmenopausal women with obesity. To investigate if Mexican-Mestizo postmenopausal women with breast cancer and obesity presented different somatic mutations in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) when compared to women with normal body mass index.

Single-cell analysis of human testis aging and correlation with elevated body mass index

Project description:Aging human males display reduced reproductive health, however testis aging is poorly understood at the molecular and genomic level. Here, we utilized single-cell RNA-seq to profile over 44,000 cells from both young and older men (>60 years old) – and examined age-related changes in germline development and in the somatic niche. Interestingly, age-related changes in spermatogonial stem cells appeared modest, whereas age-related dysregulation of spermatogenesis and the somatic niche ranged from moderate to severe. Altered pathways included signaling and inflammation in multiple cell types, metabolic signaling in Sertoli cells, hedgehog signaling and testosterone production in Leydig cells, cell death and growth in testicular peritubular cells, and possible developmental regression in both Leydig and peritubular cells. Remarkably, the extent of dysregulation correlated with body mass index in older, but not younger men. Taken together, we reveal candidate molecular mechanisms underlying the complex testicular changes conferred by aging, and their exacerbation by concurrent chronic conditions such as obesity.

Increased body mass index is linked to systemic inflammation through altered chromatin co-accessibility in human preadipocytes [ATAC-Seq]

Project description:Obesity-induced adipose tissue dysfunction can cause low-grade inflammation and downstream obesity comorbidities. Although preadipocytes may contribute to this pro-inflammatory environment, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. We used human primary preadipocytes from body mass index (BMI) -discordant monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs to generate epigenetic (ATAC-sequence) and transcriptomic (RNA-sequence) data for testing whether increased BMI alters the subnuclear compartmentalization of open chromatin in the twins’ preadipocytes, causing downstream inflammation. Here we show that the co-accessibility of open chromatin, i.e. compartmentalization of chromatin activity, is altered in the higher vs lower BMI MZ siblings for a large subset (~88.5Mb) of the active subnuclear compartments. Using the UK Biobank we show that variants within these regions contribute to systemic inflammation through interactions with BMI on C-reactive protein. In summary, open chromatin co-accessibility in human preadipocytes is disrupted among the higher BMI siblings, suggesting a mechanism how obesity may lead to inflammation via gene-environment interactions.
