[Epub ahead of print] Peptide-MHC class I and class II tetramers: From flow to mass cytometry. Christophersen A1,2,3. Author information: 1. KG Jebsen Coeliac Disease Research Centre, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway. 2. Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Oslo, Norway. 3. Department of Immunology, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway. Abstract To develop better vaccines and more targeted treatments for cancer and autoimmune disorders, the disease-specific T cells and their cognate antigens need to be better characterized. For more than two decades, peptide-major histocompatibility complex (pMHC) tetramers and flow cytometry have been the gold standard for detection of CD8+ and CD4+ T cells specific to antigens in the context of MHC class I and class II, respectively. Nonetheless, more recent studies combining such reagents with mass cytometry, i.e. cytometry by time of flight (CyTOF), have offered far more comprehensive profiling of antigen-specific T-cell responses. In addition, mass cytometry has enabled ex vivo screening of CD8+ T-cell reactivities against hundreds of MHC class I restricted candidate epitopes. MHC-class II molecules, on the other hand, have been challenging to combine with mass cytometry as they are more complex and bind with lower affinities to cognate T-cell receptors than MHC-class I molecules. In this review, I discuss how techniques originally developed to improve the staining capacity of pMHC tetramers in flow cytometry led to the successful combination of such reagents with mass cytometry. Especially, I will highlight very recent advances facilitating the combination with pMHC- class II tetramers. Together, these mass cytometry-based studies can help develop more targeted treatments for cancer and autoimmune disorders. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Potassium bicarbonate improves dough and cookie characteristics through influencing physicochemical and conformation properties of wheat gluten. Chen G1, Hu R1, Li Y1. Author information: 1. Department of Grain Science and Industry, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS 66506 United States. Abstract Baking soda (NaHCO3) has critical technological functions in cookie products. Health concern on excessive sodium consumption is increasing; therefore, it is necessary to explore NaHCO3 alternatives, such as KHCO3, for bakery products. This study investigated the impact of KHCO3 on the technological behaviors of cookie dough and end-uses in comparison with control samples prepared with NaHCO3 and explore the changes of physicochemical and conformation properties of soft wheat gluten during the process. Dough rheological measurements demonstrated that addition of KHCO3 reduced dough stickiness, and adding KHCO3 achieved similar dough and baking performances as using NaHCO3, which were partially attributed to the decrease of gliadin to glutenin ratio, changes of secondary structure, and intensive aggregation of gluten by introducing KHCO3. Cookie sensory attributes were also not adversely affected by using KHCO3. Therefore, partially replacing NaHCO3 with KHCO3 in cookie products can be an effective approach for sodium reduction. © 2019 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract Coeliac disease (CD) is a multifactorial autoimmune disorder and gut dysbiosis contributes to its pathogenesis. We previously profiled by 16S rRNA sequencing duodenal and oropharyngeal microbiomes in active CD (a-CD), gluten-free diet (GFD) patients, and controls (CO) and found significantly higher levels of Neisseria spp., with pro-inflammatory activities, in a-CD patients than in the other two groups. In this study, we developed a fast and simple qPCR-based method to evaluate the abundance of the oral Neisseria spp. and the diagnostic performances of the test in CD diagnosis. The Neisseria spp. abundances detected by quantitative PCR (qPCR) were: CO = 0.14, GFD = 0.15, a- CD = 2.08, showing a similar trend to those previously measured by next generation sequencing (NGS). In particular, Neisseria spp. values obtained by both methods were significantly higher (p < 0.001) in a-CD than in the other two groups GFD and CO-the latter almost overlapping. We calculated by ROC curve analysis the threshold of 1.12 ng/μL of Neisseria spp. to discriminate between CO+GFD and a-CD patients with 100% and 96.7% of diagnostic sensitivity and specificity, respectively. In conclusion, our data, if confirmed in other cohorts, suggest the q-PCR evaluation of oral Neisseria spp. could be a fast and simple method to assess CD-associated dysbiosis for diagnostic purposes.

Gastroenterology Unit, Department of Internal Medicine, Dokuz Eylül University, İzmir, Turkey. 2. Department of Internal Medicine, Dokuz Eylül University, İzmir, Turkey. Abstract Background: Celiac disease (CD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) involve inflammation of the gastrointestinal lumen, which environmental, genetic, and immunological factors have a role in their pathogenesis. The prevalence of celiac disease in IBD ranges from 0% to 14%. In this study, our aim was to determine the prevalence of CD in IBD patients followed by us who are attending the hospital or outpatient clinic over a period of time of seven years. Methods: Seven hundred and fifty nine patients (425 M, 334 F, mean age: 46.75, 396 ulcerative colitis (UC), 363 Crohn's disease (CrD)) diagnosed and followed up for IBD between January 2009 and July 2016 were evaluated retrospectively, and clinical, demographic, laboratory, and endoscopic data were collected. Results: CD was investigated in 79 (%10.4) inflammatory bowel disease patients according to symptoms, and in 5.06% (n = 4) of them, we diagnosed CD. The most common indication for investigating for CD was iron deficiency anemia unreponsive to iron supplementation.

  • Identification of Hub Genes Associated with Prognosis, Diagnosis, Immune
    Lei et al. Human Genomics (2021) 15:39 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40246-021-00341-4 PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Identification of hub genes associated with prognosis, diagnosis, immune infiltration and therapeutic drug in liver cancer by integrated analysis Xinyi Lei1, Miao Zhang2, Bingsheng Guan1, Qiang Chen3, Zhiyong Dong1* and Cunchuan Wang1* Abstract Background: Liver cancer is one of the most common cancers and causes of cancer death worldwide. The objective was to elucidate novel hub genes which were benefit for diagnosis, prognosis, and targeted therapy in liver cancer via integrated analysis. Methods: GSE84402, GSE101685, and GSE112791 were filtered from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by using the GEO2R. The GO and KEGG pathway of DEGs were analyzed in the DAVID. PPI and TF network of the DEGs were constructed by using the STRING, TRANSFAC, and Harmonizome. The relationship between hub genes and prognoses in liver cancer was analyzed in UALCAN based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The diagnostic value of hub genes was evaluated by ROC. The relationship between hub genes and tumor-infiltrate lymphocytes was analyzed in TIMER. The protein levels of hub genes were verified in HPA. The interaction between the hub genes and the drug were identified in DGIdb. Results: In total, 108 upregulated and 60 downregulated DEGs were enriched in 148 GO terms and 20 KEGG pathways. The mRNA levels and protein levels of CDK1, HMMR, PTTG1, and TTK were higher in liver cancer tissues compared to normal tissues, which showed excellent diagnostic and prognostic value. CDK1, HMMR, PTTG1, and TTK were positively correlated with tumor-infiltrate lymphocytes, which might involve tumor immune response.

Human Genomics (2021) 15:28 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40246-021-00328-1 PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Whole genome sequencing reveals a frameshift mutation and a large deletion in YY1AP1 in a girl with a panvascular artery disease Víctor Raggio1, Nicolas Dell’Oca1, Camila Simoes2, Alejandra Tapié1, Conrado Medici3, Gonzalo Costa3, Soledad Rodriguez1, Gonzalo Greif4, Estefania Garrone5, María Laura Rovella5, Virgina Gonzalez5, Margarita Halty6, Gabriel González3, Jong-Yeon Shin7, Sang-Yoon Shin7, Changhoon Kim8, Jeong-Sun Seo7,9, Martin Graña2, Hugo Naya2,10 and Lucia Spangenberg2,11* Abstract Background: Rare diseases are pathologies that affect less than 1 in 2000 people. They are difficult to diagnose due to their low frequency and their often highly heterogeneous symptoms. Rare diseases have in general a high impact on the quality of life and life expectancy of patients, which are in general children or young people. The advent of high-throughput sequencing techniques has improved diagnosis in several different areas, from pediatrics, achieving a diagnostic rate of 41% with whole genome sequencing (WGS) and 36% with whole exome sequencing, to neurology, achieving a diagnostic rate between 47 and 48.5% with WGS. This evidence has encouraged our group to pursue a molecular diagnosis using WGS for this and several other patients with rare diseases. Results: We used whole genome sequencing to achieve a molecular diagnosis of a 7-year-old girl with a severe panvascular artery disease that remained for several years undiagnosed. We found a frameshift variant in one copy and a large deletion involving two exons in the other copy of a gene called YY1AP1.

Please note: The pan-cancer molecular signatures disclosed in this article are the results of applying our data mining algorithm to the rich TCGA “pancan12” data sets from twelve different cancer types. These signatures have been identified as patterns, without any indication about their arXiv:1306.2584v2 [q-bio.QM] 11 Jul 2013 role or potential usefulness. We believe that each of them represents an important biomolecular event in cancer. We invite the cancer research community to contact us and help us interpret each of these pan-cancer signatures, and to investigate them for potential applications in diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic products applicable to multiple cancer types. There will be additional versions of this article and we expect that the final version will contain many co-authors. 1 Although cancer is known to be characterized by several unifying biological hallmarks, systems biology has had limited success in identifying molecular signatures present in in all types of cancer.

However, linking common variants to genes that are causal for CKD etiology remains challenging. By adapting self-transcribing active regulatory region sequencing, we evaluated the effect of genetic variation on DNA regulatory elements (DREs). Variants in linkage with the CKD-associated single-nucleotide polymorphism rs11959928 were shown to affect DRE function, illustrating that genes regulated by DREs colocalizing with CKD-associated variation can be dysregulated and therefore, considered as CKD candidate genes. To identify target genes of these DREs, we used circular chro- mosome conformation capture (4C) sequencing on glomerular endothelial cells and renal tubular epithelial cells. Our 4C analyses revealed interactions of CKD-associated susceptibility regions with the transcriptional start sites of 304 target genes. Overlap with multiple databases confirmed that many of these target genes are involved in kidney homeostasis.

Study of the involved molecular networks of cancers can identify the potential target for early diagnosis, ecient therapies, and predictive prognosis of patients with cancer. Copy number variations are one type of DNA mutations which has been connected with human cancers. The CNVs can be used to nd the regions of the genome involved in cancer phenotypes. This study is aimed to perform genome-wide chromosomal CNVs in HCC samples to nd hotspot regions of disease using in silico analysis. The obtained data showed that gain of chromosome 1q and loss of 8p were frequently observed in target cancerous tissues. All the gains and losses were associated with tumor grade and metastasis. However, the amplication of YY1AP1 (Yin Yang-1 Associated Protein 1) and deletion of CHMP7 (Charged Multivesicular Body Protein 7) were observed in most of patients. These expression levels of YY1AP1 and CHMP7 were also upregulated and downregulated in cancerous samples respectively.

Winkler 1,23 1234567890():,; Genes underneath signals from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for kidney function are promising targets for functional studies, but prioritizing variants and genes is challenging. By GWAS meta-analysis for creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) from the Chronic Kidney Disease Genetics Consortium and UK Biobank (n = 1,201,909), we expand the number of eGFRcrea loci (424 loci, 201 novel; 9.8% eGFRcrea variance explained by 634 independent signal variants). Our increased sample size in fine-mapping (n = 1,004,040, European) more than doubles the number of signals with resolved fine-mapping (99% credible sets down to 1 variant for 44 signals, ≤5 variants for 138 signals). Cystatin-based eGFR and/or blood urea nitrogen association support 348 loci (n = 460,826 and 852,678, respectively). Our customizable tool for Gene PrioritiSation reveals 23 compelling genes including mechanistic insights and enables navigation through genes and variants likely relevant for kidney function in human to help select targets for experimental follow-up.
