Project description:BackgroundEngaging diverse populations in cancer genomics research is of critical importance and is a fundamental goal of the NCI Participant Engagement and Cancer Genome Sequencing (PE-CGS) Network. Established as part of the Cancer Moonshot, PE-CGS is a consortium of stakeholders including clinicians, scientists, genetic counselors, and representatives of potential study participants and their communities. Participant engagement is an ongoing, bidirectional, and mutually beneficial interaction between study participants and researchers. PE-CGS sought to set priorities in participant engagement for conducting the network's research.MethodsPE-CGS deliberatively engaged its stakeholders in the following four-phase process to set the network's research priorities in participant engagement: (i) a brainstorming exercise to elicit potential priorities; (ii) a 2-day virtual meeting to discuss priorities; (iii) recommendations from the PE-CGS External Advisory Panel to refine priorities; and (iv) a virtual meeting to set priorities.ResultsNearly 150 PE-CGS stakeholders engaged in the process. Five priorities were set: (i) tailor education and communication materials for participants throughout the research process; (ii) identify measures of participant engagement; (iii) identify optimal participant engagement strategies; (iv) understand cancer disparities in the context of cancer genomics research; and (v) personalize the return of genomics findings to participants.ConclusionsPE-CGS is pursuing these priorities to meaningfully engage diverse and underrepresented patients with cancer and posttreatment cancer survivors as participants in cancer genomics research and, subsequently, generate new discoveries.ImpactData from PE-CGS will be shared with the broader scientific community in a manner consistent with participant informed consent and community agreement.

Project description:Rat ventricular cardiomyocytes were prepared from 18 day old fetus. Approximately 6 million cells were plated on 100 mm culture plate. The serum used in the medium was depleted from thyroid hormone by passing through anion exchange resin column. After 48 hours of growth with 70% confluency, cells were exposed to either T3, DITPA or CGS for another 48 hours before harvesting. Final concentrations of T3, DITPA and CGS in the medium were 6nM, 218nM and 1nM respectively. RNA was prepared from cells with Triazol. Twenty micrograms of total RNA was reverse transcribed and labeled with Alexa Fluor 546 and 647. Labeled probes were hybridized with Qiagen's rat unigene oligo library. After 2 low and 1 high stringency washes Prolong antifade was added to the slides to prevent bleaching effect. Slides were scanned in Array Worx scanner with dual wave length. The data ratio was normalized using a location and intensity dependent Lowess formula. Keywords: equivalent probe

Project description:This study aims to better understand the cause of colorectal cancer and how to find the best treatment for Hispanic patients with colorectal cancer. The genetic information in the blood and tissues may explain why patients who have the same type of cancer and receive the same treatment do not always have the same results. By combining genetic (certain qualities or traits passed from parents to offspring) information with clinical data, such as the responses of different kinds of cancers to different treatments, this study could lead to more knowledge about why certain cancers occur and why they respond differently to treatments. Information gathered from this study may help researchers match treatments to the genetics of each patient and the genetic changes in their tumor. This approach is known as personalized medicine.

Project description:Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains the second leading cause of cancer mortality in the U.S., with significant racial and ethnic disparities in incidence, survival, and mortality rates. The rising incidence of early-onset CRC and the frequent presentation at advanced stages of CRC among the Hispanics makes this an important ethnic group to study. A deeper understanding of the complex interplay between molecular, genetic, and environmental factors is critical for developing targeted therapies to reduce the prevalence in specific racial and ethnic groups, such as Hispanics. This study explores the role of stress-survival pathway (SSP) genes in early-onset and late-stage CRC, primarily focusing on disparities between Hispanics and Non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs). Additionally, this study investigates the role of MCM10, in contributing to CRC disparities among the Hispanic populations with an emphasis of early-onset and late-stage CRC Hispanics. Methods: One of our previous studies had identified some SSP protein coding genes associated with CRC. The expressions of these genes were validated in CRC cell lines, cDNA arrays, tissue microarrays, and tissue samples using qRT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry. The transcript-level expressions of differentially expressed SSP genes were further evaluated in Hispanic and NHWs tumor tissues, including early onset and late-stage cohorts. Additionally, we performed cellular physiological and functional assays to explore the role of MCM10 in tumor progression, before and after siRNA mediated knockdown. High-throughput transcriptomic and proteomic analyses were performed to reveal the underlying molecular mechanism. Results: We observed differential expressions of twelve SSP genes in CRC cell lines, at the transcript level; that of ten genes in early and late stages using cDNA arrays, and nine genes at the protein levels using tissue microarrays and immunohistochemistry. Hispanic CRC samples showed differential expression of all nine SSP genes compared to NHWs, in early-onset, and late-stage CRC, with all genes being upregulated other than CDK4 and PRDX4 in late-stage CRC and CDK4 in early-onset CRC. Our functional study demonstrated that MCM10 knockdown in CRC cell lines significantly reduced cell proliferation, growth, invasion and migration by inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and reactive oxygen species pathways. The integrative RNA-sequencing and proteomics study reported that the novel gene PPFI1A could be associated with MCM10 mediated cancer progression. The role of MCM10 and PPFI1A in cancer progression has been validated using a Hispanic CRC patient derived organoid. Conclusion: This study highlights the role of SSP genes, particularly MCM10, in colorectal cancer progression and its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target to address Hispanic CRC disparities.

Project description:Hispanic/Latino populations possess a complex genetic structure that reflects recent admixture among and potentially ancient substructure within Native American, European, and West African source populations. Here, we quantify genome-wide patterns of SNP and haplotype variation among 100 individuals with ancestry from Ecuador, Colombia, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic genotyped using Illumina technology. To investigate variations of continental ancestry between different Hispanic/Latino groups (using self-reported country-specific identification of individual, both parents, and all four grandparents) and within them from healthy controls represented in the New York Health Project Biorepository. Genotyped on the Illumina 610-Quad, which is identical to HumanHap550-v3 SNPs plus an additional ~60,000 SNPs for CNV, no CNV data is provided or was analyzed.

Project description:The risk of atopic dermatitis, hidradenitis suppurativa, lupus erythematosus is significantly higher in African Americans (AA), while White Non-Hispanic (WNH) subjects have a greater risk of psoriasis. The mechanisms underlying disparity in inflammatory skin diseases risks are poorly understood, and the molecular landscape of skin of color including transcriptome and proteome are not well known. To assess whether and how gene expression pattern in normal skin may affect predisposition to specific skin inflammatory diseases, we performed analkysis of gene expression in full thickness skin biopsies obtained from healthy African American and White Non-Hispanic volunteers (all females, aged 22-46).

Project description:Obesity is a major risk factor for several chronic diseases including diabetes, fatty liver disease and cancer. Despite similar propensities for obesity, Hispanics and African Americans exhibit unique and distinct differences in obesity related outcomes such as greater risk of, obesity-related cancers in AA and non alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in Hispanics. This study was aimed to determine whether differences in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) gene expression in obese, Hispanic and AA young adults might explain ethnic differences in obesity-related phenotypes. cross-sectional study design to compare subcutaneous adipose tissue gene expression profiles of 19 Hispanic and 17 African American young adults
