SI Appendix Overrepresented and Underrepresented Gene Ontology (GO) Terms SI Appendix Overrepresented and Underrepresented Gene Ontology (GO) Terms To explore the biological functions of the sets of genes identified by our analysis we examined each gene set for overrepresented and underrepresented Gene Ontology (GO) terms using the Generic GO Term Finder at http://go.princeton.edu/cgi‐bin/GOTermFinder. The results from this analysis are summarized in tables S1‐S4 containing the enriched GO terms with the corresponding Bonferroni corrected p‐values. The legend for the header of the tables is: N Set – Number of genes in the our gene set with the corresponding GO term (first column) N Tot – Number of genes in the genome with the corresponding GO term (first column) p val – Bonferroni corrected probability for finding the observed N Set number or greater number of genes with the corresponding GO term if the genes were sampled from the genome randomly. The probability is computed from the hypergeometric distribution and corrected for multiple hypotheses testing. The Swiss‐Prot identifiers corresponding to the genes from each set can be found in the accompanying word document, Supp_Info_GO_GeneSets.doc. The genes are listed in accordance to the enriched GO terms in the default format of the Generic GO Term Finder. The total number of Swiss‐Prot identifiers used by the GO Term Finder for computing p‐values is 38594. 1.1 Genes coupled more strongly in non‐cancer cells, ΔC> 1 The total number of Swiss‐Prot identifiers corresponding to the gene set and used for computing the p‐values is 846.

    DECIPHERING TRANSCRIPTIONAL PATTERNS OF GENE REGULATION: A COMPUTATIONAL APPROACH by Princy Parsana A dissertation submitted to The Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland July, 2020 © 2020 Princy Parsana All rights reserved Abstract With rapid advancements in sequencing technology, we now have the ability to sequence the entire human genome, and to quantify expression of tens of thousands of genes from hundreds of individuals. This provides an extraordinary opportunity to learn phenotype relevant genomic patterns that can improve our understanding of molecular and cellular processes underlying a trait. The high dimensional nature of genomic data presents a range of computational and statistical challenges. This dissertation presents a compilation of projects that were driven by the motivation to efficiently capture gene regulatory patterns in the human transcriptome, while addressing statistical and computational challenges that accompany this data. We attempt to address two major difficulties in this domain: a) artifacts and noise in transcriptomic data, andb) limited statistical power. First, we present our work on investigating the effect of artifactual variation in gene expression data and its impact on trans-eQTL discovery. Here we performed an in-depth analysis of diverse pre-recorded covariates and latent confounders to understand their contribution to heterogeneity in gene expression measurements. Next, we discovered 673 trans-eQTLs across 16 human tissues using v6 data from the Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. Finally, we characterized two trait-associated trans-eQTLs; one in Skeletal Muscle and another in Thyroid. Second, we present a principal component based residualization method to correct gene expression measurements prior to reconstruction of co-expression networks.

The CD CD8 CD8 nomenclature was developed and is maintained through the HLDA (Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens) workshop started in 1982. CD45R/B220 CD19 CD19 The goal is to provide standardization of monoclonal antibodies to B Cell CD20 CD22 (B cell activation marker) human antigens across laboratories. To characterize or “workshop” the antibodies, multiple laboratories carry out blind analyses of antibodies. These results independently validate antibody specificity. CD11c CD11c Dendritic Cell CD123 CD123 While the CD nomenclature has been developed for use with human antigens, it is applied to corresponding mouse antigens as well as antigens from other species. However, the mouse and other species NK Cell CD56 CD335 (NKp46) antibodies are not tested by HLDA. Human CD markers were reviewed by the HLDA.

  • Mechanical Forces Induce an Asthma Gene Signature in Healthy Airway Epithelial Cells Ayşe Kılıç1,10, Asher Ameli1,2,10, Jin-Ah Park3,10, Alvin T
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mechanical forces induce an asthma gene signature in healthy airway epithelial cells Ayşe Kılıç1,10, Asher Ameli1,2,10, Jin-Ah Park3,10, Alvin T. Kho4, Kelan Tantisira1, Marc Santolini 1,5, Feixiong Cheng6,7,8, Jennifer A. Mitchel3, Maureen McGill3, Michael J. O’Sullivan3, Margherita De Marzio1,3, Amitabh Sharma1, Scott H. Randell9, Jefrey M. Drazen3, Jefrey J. Fredberg3 & Scott T. Weiss1,3* Bronchospasm compresses the bronchial epithelium, and this compressive stress has been implicated in asthma pathogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms by which this compressive stress alters pathways relevant to disease are not well understood. Using air-liquid interface cultures of primary human bronchial epithelial cells derived from non-asthmatic donors and asthmatic donors, we applied a compressive stress and then used a network approach to map resulting changes in the molecular interactome. In cells from non-asthmatic donors, compression by itself was sufcient to induce infammatory, late repair, and fbrotic pathways. Remarkably, this molecular profle of non-asthmatic cells after compression recapitulated the profle of asthmatic cells before compression. Together, these results show that even in the absence of any infammatory stimulus, mechanical compression alone is sufcient to induce an asthma-like molecular signature. Bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) form a physical barrier that protects pulmonary airways from inhaled irritants and invading pathogens1,2. Moreover, environmental stimuli such as allergens, pollutants and viruses can induce constriction of the airways3 and thereby expose the bronchial epithelium to compressive mechanical stress. In BECs, this compressive stress induces structural, biophysical, as well as molecular changes4,5, that interact with nearby mesenchyme6 to cause epithelial layer unjamming1, shedding of soluble factors, production of matrix proteins, and activation matrix modifying enzymes, which then act to coordinate infammatory and remodeling processes4,7–10.

Walther1 and Francisca Nunes de Almeida1 ABSTRACT An overview of Cdc42 Cdc42 – a member of the small Rho GTPase family – regulates cell Cdc42 was discovered in yeast and belongs to a large family of small – polarity across organisms from yeast to humans. It is an essential (20 30 kDa) GTP-binding proteins (Adams et al., 1990; Johnson regulator of polarized morphogenesis in epithelial cells, through and Pringle, 1990). It is part of the Ras-homologous Rho subfamily coordination of apical membrane morphogenesis, lumen formation and of GTPases, of which there are 20 members in humans, including junction maturation. In parallel, work in yeast and Caenorhabditis elegans the RhoA and Rac GTPases, (Hall, 2012). Rho, Rac and Cdc42 has provided important clues as to how this molecular switch can homologues are found in all eukaryotes, except for plants, which do generate and regulate polarity through localized activation or inhibition, not have a clear homologue for Cdc42. Together, the function of and cytoskeleton regulation. Recent studies have revealed how Rho GTPases influences most, if not all, cellular processes. important and complex these regulations can be during epithelial In the early 1990s, seminal work from Alan Hall and his morphogenesis. This complexity is mirrored by the fact that Cdc42 can collaborators identified Rho, Rac and Cdc42 as main regulators of exert its function through many effector proteins.

Integral to this tool are the \seq2gene" and \gene2pathway" components in series that infer a quantitative pathway-level profile for each sample. The seq2gene function assigns phenotype-associated significance of genomic regions to gene-level scores, where the significance could be p-values of SNPs or point mutations, protein-binding affinity, or transcriptional expression level. The seq2gene function has the feasibility to assign non-exon regions to a range of neighboring genes besides the nearest one, thus facilitating the study of functional non-coding elements[2]. Then the gene2pathway summarizes gene-level measurements to pathway-level scores, comparing the quantity of significance for gene members within a pathway with those outside a pathway.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

  • Identify Distinct Prognostic Impact of ALDH1 Family Members by TCGA Database in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
    Open Access Annals of Hematology & Oncology Research Article Identify Distinct Prognostic Impact of ALDH1 Family Members by TCGA Database in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Yi H, Deng R, Fan F, Sun H, He G, Lai S and Su Y* Department of Hematology, General Hospital of Chengdu Abstract Military Region, China Background: Acute myeloid leukemia is a heterogeneous disease. Identify *Corresponding author: Su Y, Department of the prognostic biomarker is important to guide stratification and therapeutic Hematology, General Hospital of Chengdu Military strategies. Region, Chengdu, 610083, China Method: We detected the expression level and the prognostic impact of Received: November 25, 2017; Accepted: January 18, each ALDH1 family members in AML by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) 2018; Published: February 06, 2018 database. Results: Upon 168 patients whose expression level of ALDH1 family members were available. We found that the level of ALDH1A1correlated to the prognosis of AML by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) stratification but not in other ALDH1 members. Moreover, we got survival data from 160 AML patients in TCGA database. We found that high ALDH1A1 expression correlated to poor Overall Survival (OS), mostly in Fms-like Tyrosine Kinase-3 (FLT3) mutated group. HighALDH1A2 expression significantly correlated to poor OS in FLT3 wild type population but not in FLT3 mutated group. High ALDH1A3 expression significantly correlated to poor OS in FLT3 mutated group but not in FLT3 wild type group. There was no relationship between the OS of AML with the level of ALDH1B1, ALDH1L1 and ALDH1L2. Conclusion: The prognostic impacts were different in each ALDH1 family members, which needs further investigation.

During the past decade, evidence has accumulated for important and distinct roles of Celsr1–3 in planar cell polarity (PCP) and brain development and maintenance. Although the role of Celsr in PCP is conserved from flies to mammals, other functions may be more distantly related, with Celsr working only with one or a subset of the classical PCP partners. Here, we review the literature on Celsr in PCP and neural devel- opment, point to several remaining questions, and consider future challenges and possible research trends. Celsr1–3 genes encode atypical cadherins of more than 3000 amino acids ( Fig. 7.1). Their large ectodomain is composed of nine N-terminal cadherin repeats (typical cadherins have five repeats), six epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains, two laminin G repeats, one hormone receptor motif (HRM), and a G-protein-coupled receptor proteolytic site (GPS).
