    Identifying Novel Disease-variants and Understanding the Role of the STAT1-STAT4 Locus in SLE A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Immunology Graduate Program of the College of Medicine by Zubin H. Patel B.S., Worcester Polytechnic Institute, 2009 John B. Harley, M.D., Ph.D. Committee Chair Gurjit Khurana Hershey, M.D., Ph.D Leah C. Kottyan, Ph.D. Harinder Singh, Ph.D. Matthew T. Weirauch, Ph.D. Abstract Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) or lupus is an autoimmune disorder caused by an overactive immune system with dysregulation of both innate and adaptive immune pathways. It can affect all major organ systems and may lead to inflammation of the serosal and mucosal surfaces. The pathogenesis of lupus is driven by genetic factors, environmental factors, and gene-environment interactions. Heredity accounts for a substantial proportion of SLE risk, and the role of specific genetic risk loci has been well established. Identifying the specific causal genetic variants and the underlying molecular mechanisms has been a major area of investigation. This thesis describes efforts to develop an analytical approach to identify candidate rare variants from trio analyses and a fine-mapping analysis at the STAT1-STAT4 locus, a well-replicated SLE-risk locus. For the STAT1-STAT4 locus, subsequent functional biological studies demonstrated genotype dependent gene expression, transcription factor binding, and DNA regulatory activity. Rare variants are classified as variants across the genome with an allele-frequency less than 1% in ancestral populations.

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.

Of the markers, 25 were placed on the USDA reference linkage map and 37 were positioned on the Roslin 3000-rad radiation hybrid (RH) map, with 20 assignments shared between the maps. Although no novel regions of conserved synteny between the cattle and the human genomes were identified, the coverage was extended for bovine chromosomes 3, 7, 15, and 29 compared with previously published comparative maps between human and bovine genomes. Overall, these data improve the resolution of the human–bovine comparative maps and will assist future efforts to integrate bovine RH and linkage map data.

  • Supplemental Information
    Supplemental information Dissection of the genomic structure of the miR-183/96/182 gene. Previously, we showed that the miR-183/96/182 cluster is an intergenic miRNA cluster, located in a ~60-kb interval between the genes encoding nuclear respiratory factor-1 (Nrf1) and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2H (Ube2h) on mouse chr6qA3.3 (1). To start to uncover the genomic structure of the miR- 183/96/182 gene, we first studied genomic features around miR-183/96/182 in the UCSC genome browser (http://genome.UCSC.edu/), and identified two CpG islands 3.4-6.5 kb 5’ of pre-miR-183, the most 5’ miRNA of the cluster (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1 and Seq. S1). A cDNA clone, AK044220, located at 3.2-4.6 kb 5’ to pre-miR-183, encompasses the second CpG island (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). We hypothesized that this cDNA clone was derived from 5’ exon(s) of the primary transcript of the miR-183/96/182 gene, as CpG islands are often associated with promoters (2). Supporting this hypothesis, multiple expressed sequences detected by gene-trap clones, including clone D016D06 (3, 4), were co-localized with the cDNA clone AK044220 (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). Clone D016D06, deposited by the German GeneTrap Consortium (GGTC) (http://tikus.gsf.de) (3, 4), was derived from insertion of a retroviral construct, rFlpROSAβgeo in 129S2 ES cells (Fig. 1A and C). The rFlpROSAβgeo construct carries a promoterless reporter gene, the β−geo cassette - an in-frame fusion of the β-galactosidase and neomycin resistance (Neor) gene (5), with a splicing acceptor (SA) immediately upstream, and a polyA signal downstream of the β−geo cassette (Fig.

  • Biological and Prognostic Significance of Chromosome 5Q Deletions in Myeloid Malignancies Aristoteles A.N
    Review Biological and Prognostic Significance of Chromosome 5q Deletions in Myeloid Malignancies Aristoteles A.N. Giagounidis,1Ulrich Germing,2 and Carlo Aul1 Abstract The presence of del(5q), either as the sole karyotypic abnormality or as part of a more complex karyotype, has distinct clinical implications for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia. The 5qÀ syndrome, a subtype of low-riskMDS, is characterized by an isolated 5q deletion and <5% blasts in the bone marrow and can serve as a useful model for studying the role of 5q deletions in the pathogenesis and prognosis of myeloid malignancies. Recent clinical results with lenalidomide, an oral immunomodulatory drug, have shown durable erythroid responses, including transfusion independence and complete cytogenetic remissions in patients with del(5q) MDS with or without additional chromosomal abnormalities. These results indicate that lenalidomide can overcome the pathogenic effect of 5q deletion in MDS and restore bone marrow balance. The data provide important new insights into the pathobiology of 5q chromo- somal deletions in myeloid malignancies. Cytogenetic abnormalities are detected in the bone marrow of preponderance, refractory macrocytic anemia, normal or high over 50% of patients diagnosed with primary myelodysplastic platelet counts, hypolobulated megakaryocytes, and modest syndromes (MDS) or myeloid leukemias, and up to 80% of leukopenia (11, 14, 17). The prognosis is favorable in 5qÀ patients with secondary or therapy-related MDS (1, 2). These syndrome with relatively low risk of transformation to AML abnormalities can be characterized as being balanced or (11, 18). Although the limits of 5q deletions vary among unbalanced (3, 4). Balanced cytogenetic abnormalities include patients with 5qÀ syndrome, the most frequent deletion is reciprocal translocations, inversions, and insertions (3, 5, 6).

Many case studies detected EBOV in the CSF, suggesting that the neurologic sequelae in survivors is related to viral presence. In the periphery, EBOV infects endothelial cells and triggers a “cytokine stormâ€. However, it is unclear whether a similar process occurs in the brain, with secondary neuroinflammation, neuronal loss and blood-brain barrier (BBB) compromise, eventually leading to lasting neurological damage. We have used in vivo imaging and post-necropsy immunostaining to elucidate the CNS pathophysiology in Rhesus macaques infected with EBOV (Makona). Whole brain MRI with T1 relaxometry (pre- and post-contrast) and FDG-PET were performed to monitor the progression of disease in two cohorts of EBOV infected macaques from baseline to terminal endpoint (day 5-6). Post-necropsy, multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemical (MF-IHC) staining for various cellular markers in the thalamus and brainstem was performed. Serial blood and CSF samples were collected to assess disease progression. The linear mixed effect model was used for statistical analysis. Post-infection, we first detected EBOV in the serum (day 3) and CSF (day 4) with dramatic increases until euthanasia. The standard uptake values of FDG-PET relative to whole brain uptake (SUVr) in the midbrain, pons, and thalamus increased significantly over time (p&lt;0.01) and positively correlated with blood viremia (p≤0.01).
