My deepest gratitude goes to Dr. Ali Bazarbachi and Dr Hugues de Thé for not only directing my work but also providing great role models and inspiration for me to grow as a scientist and an individual. I appreciate all the efforts and trust they put in me of which without I wouldn’t have been able to reach this point in my career. I am indebted to Dr. Hiba El Hajj who not only provided me with scientific support but also the much needed friendly atmosphere and emotional support in the lab. I cannot thank her enough for all her efforts and friendliness, without her my journey in Dr. Bazarbachi’s lab wouldn’t have been as pleasant. Dr. Marwan El Sabban has not been only a mentor, but also a friend and a confidant. I am very grateful for all the discussions I had with him. He was a friend like a father, but also fun and friendly like a brother, and a scientist who I can see has the features of a genius. I thank him for every word he said, for every argument we have had and for every time he supported me on a road full of pitfalls. Your science and your soul are unparalleled. The people in Dr. Sabban’s lab are not far from their mentor. They are among the most pleasant and the most helpful people I knew. Mohammad Harake, John Saliba, Jamal El Saghir, Layal Hajjar and the rest are not only members in Dr. Sabbans lab but also great friends. Iam very happy and grateful I have met. 3 Hleihel Rita – Thèse de doctorat - 2019 I want to extend my thanks to Dr. Zeina Dassouki and Dr. Margret Shirinian. Science only thrives when the medium allows, and I thank both of them for providing a great niche for scientific discussions in a most friendly possible environment. I have never felt so attached to people in my life as much as I felt towards my previous colleagues. I want to thank Martin Karam, Nadim Tawil, Lea Maalouf, Lama Hamadeh, and Sana El Sayed for the love and friendliness and beyond. These people cannot be described in words, they are just incredible and words fall short to describe them. Working with them felt like a feast. Seeing them every day made working in the lab the more exciting and rewarding experience I ever had. I love them beyond words. As I moved forward in my studies, I met incredible people that influenced me positively and marked themselves in my life. I particularly want to mention Maguy Hamieh, the shy sweetheart, the innocent, loving and caring person. She not only was a colleague but also a sister and a friend of whom I could rely on blindly and be sure she always got my back. I appreciate her and I cherish the time we spend together. In these few recent years I also met Dr. Abdo Akkouche who had a positive impact to my career and development through interesting discussions and collegiality and collaboration. He is a person I am happy to work with and share the time I spend in the lab in a most productive and meaningful fashion. I want to thank the members of the labs of Dr. Hugues de Thé, Dr. Ali Bazarbachi, and Dr. Hiba El Hajj for the interaction and collegiality. I particularly want to mention Hala Skayneh and Batoul Jishi who lately witnessed all my ups and downs. These two adorable girls boosted my mood and made each day in the lab a 4 Hleihel Rita – Thèse de doctorat - 2019 better one. I want to thank them for all the love and support that they have showered upon me. Hala, Batoul, I was and I will always be there for you. I also want to thank CJ and Caroline from Dr. Hugues’ lab who, despite the distance from Lebanon to France, were close colleagues and friends. I learned a lot from them. I want to thank my friends: Berthe and Jessica Hayar, Fatima Ghamlouch, Farah Gamlouch, Dr Ghina Rammal, Assil Fahs, Dr. Hassan Zalzali, Mohammad Harajli. These people are the best kind of friends, the kind that makes a person feel lucky to be present in a certain place at a certain time to meet them and get to know them and become friends with them. I can’t express how lucky I feel to have them in my life. I am grateful for the core facilities of both the American University of Beirut, Saint-Louis Hospital-France and College de France, for providing all the necessary and much needed equipment and expertise. I also want to thank the administrative staff of AUB-FM and Saint-Louis hospital in particular Ms. Rana Habli and Ms. Soniah Raharinosy for their efforts, making tedious administrative work seem doable and for doing it in the friendliest way. Finally, the greatest appreciation of all goes to those that were not with me in the lab but were with me in every single step I make, every decision I take supporting me and loving me unconditionally. My brother SAMI is God’s gift to me, an angel disguised in a man’s form. I love him beyond the capacity of my heart to love. In this light I also want to thank my number one supporter, JOSEPH, the person I chose to be my partner in life which turned to be the best decision I made my entire life. He not only accepted me, but also accepted all the long working hours, all 5 Hleihel Rita – Thèse de doctorat - 2019 the missed holidays, and all the time I could be spending with him, putting me and my career ahead of everything else. I thank him for being who he is and for showing me that love overcomes everything. I thank my mother ELHAM, my father SLEIMAN and my sisters, DARINE, LARA and ALINE for being the people sitting in the first rows to cheer for me at every achievement and trial. They saw my broken side and helped it mend. I can’t thank them enough. Their families, are my families, my nieces (LEA, LINE, RITA- MARIA, CLARA, RITA and ELMA) and nephews (TONY and CHARBEL) are my own kids, they make life happier, and they show me that no matter how things get hard, I can always laugh and forget my exhaustion or sadness during the times I spend with them. 6 Hleihel Rita – Thèse de doctorat - 2019 ABSTRACT 7 Hleihel Rita – Thèse de doctorat - 2019 Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a genetically heterogeneous disease. Despite improvements in understanding the biology of AML, survival rates remain quite low. Prognosis of AML patients largely depends on acquired cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities. Nucleophosmin-1 (NPM1) is an essential gene encoding for a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein mainly localized to the nucleolus. Among several functions, NPM1 plays major roles in stabilization of the p14ARF tumor suppressor protein, regulation of ribosome biogenesis, control of centrosome duplication, response to stress stimuli and P53 activation. NPM1 is one of the most frequently mutated genes in AML accounting for around one third of patients (NPM1c AML). In mutant NPM1c proteins, critical tryptophan residues in the C-terminus are lost and a de novo nuclear export signal is created. This leads to ectopic and aberrant accumulation of NPM1c, along with normal NPM1, in the cytoplasm of AML blasts, thus playing a major role in leukemogenesis. The promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) tumor suppressor organizes nuclear bodies (NB) domains that control proteolysis and P53-driven senescence.

Kunz7, Amir Samii1, Helmut Bertalanfy1, Chandrasekhar Kanduri2* & Souvik Kar1,8* Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are low-fow vascular malformations in the brain associated with recurrent hemorrhage and seizures. The current treatment of CCMs relies solely on surgical intervention. Henceforth, alternative non-invasive therapies are urgently needed to help prevent subsequent hemorrhagic episodes. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) belong to the class of non-coding RNAs and are known to regulate gene transcription and involved in chromatin remodeling via various mechanism. Despite accumulating evidence demonstrating the role of lncRNAs in cerebrovascular disorders, their identifcation in CCMs pathology remains unknown. The objective of the current study was to identify lncRNAs associated with CCMs pathogenesis using patient cohorts having 10 CCM patients and 4 controls from brain. Executing next generation sequencing, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis and identifed 1,967 lncRNAs and 4,928 protein coding genes (PCGs) to be diferentially expressed in CCMs patients. Among these, we selected top 6 diferentially expressed lncRNAs each having signifcant correlative expression with more than 100 diferentially expressed PCGs. The diferential expression status of the top lncRNAs, SMIM25 and LBX2-AS1 in CCMs was further confrmed by qRT-PCR analysis. Additionally, gene set enrichment analysis of correlated PCGs revealed critical pathways related to vascular signaling and important biological processes relevant to CCMs pathophysiology.

Genome Medicine (2015) 7:105 DOI 10.1186/s13073-015-0229-0 RESEARCH Open Access An integrative systems genetics approach reveals potential causal genes and pathways related to obesity Lisette J. A. Kogelman1, Daria V. Zhernakova2, Harm-Jan Westra3,4,5, Susanna Cirera1, Merete Fredholm1, Lude Franke2 and Haja N. Kadarmideen1* Abstract Background: Obesity is a multi-factorial health problem in which genetic factors play an important role. Limited results have been obtained in single-gene studies using either genomic or transcriptomic data. RNA sequencing technology has shown its potential in gaining accurate knowledge about the transcriptome, and may reveal novel genes affecting complex diseases. Integration of genomic and transcriptomic variation (expression quantitative trait loci [eQTL] mapping) has identified causal variants that affect complex diseases. We integrated transcriptomic data from adipose tissue and genomic data from a porcine model to investigate the mechanisms involved in obesity using a systems genetics approach. Methods: Using a selective gene expression profiling approach, we selected 36 animals based on a previously created genomic Obesity Index for RNA sequencing of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Differential expression analysis was performed using the Obesity Index as a continuous variable in a linear model. eQTL mapping was then performed to integrate 60 K porcine SNP chip data with the RNA sequencing data. Results were restricted based on genome-wide significant single nucleotide polymorphisms, detected differentially expressed genes, and previously detected co-expressed gene modules. Further data integration was performed by detecting co-expression patterns among eQTLs and integration with protein data. Results: Differential expression analysis of RNA sequencing data revealed 458 differentially expressed genes.

Coexpression Networks Based on Natural Variation in Human Gene Expression at Baseline and Under Stress Abstract Genes interact in networks to orchestrate cellular processes. Here, we used coexpression networks based on natural variation in gene expression to study the functions and interactions of human genes. We asked how these networks change in response to stress. First, we studied human coexpression networks at baseline. We constructed networks by identifying correlations in expression levels of 8.9 million gene pairs in immortalized B cells from 295 individuals comprising three independent samples. The resulting networks allowed us to infer interactions between biological processes. We used the network to predict the functions of poorly-characterized human genes, and provided some experimental support. Examining genes implicated in disease, we found that IFIH1, a diabetes susceptibility gene, interacts with YES1, which affects glucose transport. Genes predisposing to the same diseases are clustered non-randomly in the network, suggesting that the network may be used to identify candidate genes that influence disease susceptibility.

  • Identifies Differentially Methylated Regions from Iron-Deficient Rat Hippocampus David E
    Condon et al. BMC Bioinformatics (2018) 19:31 DOI 10.1186/s12859-018-2037-1 SOFTWARE Open Access Defiant: (DMRs: easy, fast, identification and ANnoTation) identifies differentially Methylated regions from iron-deficient rat hippocampus David E. Condon1, Phu V. Tran2, Yu-Chin Lien3, Jonathan Schug1, Michael K. Georgieff2, Rebecca A. Simmons3 and Kyoung-Jae Won1,4* Abstract Background: Identification of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) is the initial step towards the study of DNA methylation-mediated gene regulation. Previous approaches to call DMRs suffer from false prediction, use extreme resources, and/or require library installation and input conversion. Results: We developed a new approach called Defiant to identify DMRs. Employing Weighted Welch Expansion (WWE), Defiant showed superior performance to other predictors in the series of benchmarking tests on artificial and real data. Defiant was subsequently used to investigate DNA methylation changes in iron-deficient rat hippocampus. Defiant identified DMRs close to genes associated with neuronal development and plasticity, which were not identified by its competitor. Importantly, Defiant runs between 5 to 479 times faster than currently available software packages. Also, Defiant accepts 10 different input formats widely used for DNA methylation data. Conclusions: Defiant effectively identifies DMRs for whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS), reduced-representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS), Tet-assisted bisulfite sequencing (TAB-seq), and HpaII tiny fragment enrichment by ligation-mediated PCR-tag (HELP) assays. Keywords: Epigenetics, DNA Methylation, WGBS, Differentially Methylated regions (DMR), RRBS, Bisulfite sequencing Background somatically heritable mark that is generally associated with DNA methylation plays a critical role in gene regulation transcriptional repression [10]. Aberrant methylation has [1].
