Whole Exome Sequencing of a Single Osteosarcoma Case—Integrative Analysis with Whole Transcriptome RNA-Seq Data Reimann et al. Human Genomics 2014, 8:20 http://www.humgenomics.com/content/8/1/20 PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Whole exome sequencing of a single osteosarcoma case—integrative analysis with whole transcriptome RNA-seq data Ene Reimann1,2*, Sulev Kõks1,2, Xuan Dung Ho3,4, Katre Maasalu3,5 and Aare Märtson3,5 Abstract Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a prevalent primary malignant bone tumour with unknown etiology. These highly metastasizing tumours are among the most frequent causes of cancer-related deaths. Thus, there is an urgent need for different markers, and with our study, we were aiming towards finding novel biomarkers for OS. Methods: For that, we analysed the whole exome of the tumorous and non-tumour bone tissue from the same patient with OS applying next-generation sequencing. For data analysis, we used several softwares and combined the exome data with RNA-seq data from our previous study. Results: In the tumour exome, we found wide genomic rearrangements, which should qualify as chromotripsis— we detected almost 3,000 somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and small indels and more than 2,000 copy number variants (CNVs) in different chromosomes. Furthermore, the somatic changes seem to be associated to bone tumours, whereas germline mutations to cancer in general. We confirmed the previous findings that the most significant pathway involved in OS pathogenesis is probably the WNT/β-catenin signalling pathway. Also, the IGF1/ IGF2 and IGF1R homodimer signalling and TP53 (including downstream tumour suppressor gene EI24) pathways may have a role. Additionally, the mucin family genes, especially MUC4 and cell cycle controlling gene CDC27 may be considered as potential biomarkers for OS. Conclusions: The genes, in which the mutations were detected, may be considered as targets for finding biomarkers for OS. As the study is based on a single case and only DNA and RNA analysis, further confirmative studies are required.

Garcia3,4,5* Abstract Background: The development of a safe, effective, reversible, non-hormonal contraceptive method for men has been an ongoing effort for the past few decades. However, despite significant progress on elucidating the function of key proteins involved in reproduction, understanding male reproductive physiology is limited by incomplete information on the genes expressed in reproductive tissues, and no contraceptive targets have so far reached clinical trials. To advance product development, further identification of novel reproductive tract-specific genes leading to potentially druggable protein targets is imperative. Results: In this study, we expand on previous single tissue, single species studies by integrating analysis of publicly available human and mouse RNA-seq datasets whose initial published purpose was not focused on identifying male reproductive tract-specific targets. We also incorporate analysis of additional newly acquired human and mouse testis and epididymis samples to increase the number of targets identified. We detected a combined total of 1178 genes for which no previous evidence of male reproductive tract-specific expression was annotated, many of which are potentially druggable targets.

    GENOME-WIDE DNA METHYLATION AND IMPRINTED GENE ANALYSIS IN BABIES CONCEIVED BY ART by LUKE DAVID GOODING B.Sc., The University of British Columbia, 2014 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Reproductive and Developmental Sciences) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2019 © Luke David Gooding, 2019 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, a thesis entitled: Genome-wide DNA methylation and imprinted gene analysis in babies conceived by ART submitted by Luke David Gooding in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Reproductive and Developmental Sciences Examining Committee: Dr. Paul Yong Supervisor Dr. Patrice Eydoux Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Wan Lam Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Angela Devlin Additional Examiner Additional Supervisory Committee Members: Dr. Dan Rurak Supervisory Committee Member ii Abstract Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) are associated with a number of adverse pregnancy, neonatal, and long-term outcomes. One plausible explanation is that ART procedures may be causing alterations in epigenetic mechanisms, including the regulation of imprinted genes, that persist during development. Therefore, I investigated gene expression of the imprinted genes PLAGL1, CDKN1C, KCNQ1OT1, and H19 in cord blood from 24 IVF, 18 ICSI, 9 IUI, and 26 naturally conceived babies as well as genome-wide DNA methylation using Illumina’s EPIC methylation array in cord blood from 10 IVF, 9 ICSI, and 10 naturally conceived babies. All the samples were procured from healthy newborn singletons.
