Histh is characterized by systemic vascular leakage and edema in response to histamine challenge, sensitivity 10 which can lead to multiple organ failure and death. Although Histh risk is strongly influenced by genetics, little Clarkson’s Dis- 11 is known about its underlying molecular or genetic causes, due to genetic and physiological complexity of the ease 12 trait. To dissect this complexity, we ranked genes in the Histh locus by predicting functional association with 13 multiple Histh-related processes. We integrated these predictions with new single nucleotide polymorphism 14 (SNP) association data derived from a survey of 23 inbred mouse strains and congenic mapping data. The 15 top-ranked genes included Cxcl12, Ret, Cacna1c, and Cntn3, all of which had strong functional associations 16 and were proximal to SNPs segregating with Histh. These results demonstrate the power of network-based 17 computational methods to nominate highly plausible quantitative trait genes even in highly challenging cases 18 involving large QTLs and extreme trait complexity. 19 7 1 INTRODUCTION produces positional candidate genes.

The propagation of the most ancient SVA type A took place about 13.5 Myrs ago, and the youngest SVA types appeared in the human genome after the chimpanzee divergence. Functional enrichment analysis of genes associated with SVA insertions demonstrated their strong link to multiple ontological categories attributed to brain function and the disorders. SVA types that expanded their presence in the human genome at different stages of hominoid life history were also associated with progressively evolving behavioural features that indicated a potential impact of SVA propagation on a cognitive ability of a modern human.

  • Creb5 Establishes the Competence for Prg4 Expression in Articular Cartilage
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-021-01857-0 OPEN Creb5 establishes the competence for Prg4 expression in articular cartilage Cheng-Hai Zhang1, Yao Gao1, Unmesh Jadhav2,3, Han-Hwa Hung4, Kristina M. Holton5, Alan J. Grodzinsky4, ✉ Ramesh A. Shivdasani 2,3,6 & Andrew B. Lassar 1 A hallmark of cells comprising the superficial zone of articular cartilage is their expression of lubricin, encoded by the Prg4 gene, that lubricates the joint and protects against the devel- opment of arthritis. Here, we identify Creb5 as a transcription factor that is specifically expressed in superficial zone articular chondrocytes and is required for TGF-β and EGFR signaling to induce Prg4 expression. Notably, forced expression of Creb5 in chondrocytes 1234567890():,; derived from the deep zone of the articular cartilage confers the competence for TGF-β and EGFR signals to induce Prg4 expression. Chromatin-IP and ATAC-Seq analyses have revealed that Creb5 directly binds to two Prg4 promoter-proximal regulatory elements, that display an open chromatin conformation specifically in superficial zone articular chondrocytes; and which work in combination with a more distal regulatory element to drive induction of Prg4 by TGF-β. Our results indicate that Creb5 is a critical regulator of Prg4/lubricin expression in the articular cartilage. 1 Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA. 2 Department of Medical Oncology and Center for Functional Cancer Epigenetics, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, USA. 3 Departments of Medicine, Brigham & Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA. 4 Department of Biological Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA.

  • An Association Between Rs7635818 Polymorphism Located on Chromosome
    1 An association between rs7635818 polymorphism located on chromosome 3p12.3 and the presence of abdominal aortic aneurysm Mária Rašiová1,2*, Viera Habalová3, Jozef Židzik3, Martin Koščo1, Ľudmila Farkašová1, Matej Moščovič1, Marek Hudák1, Martin Javorský2, Ivan Tkáč2 1Faculty of Medicine, Department of Angiology, East Slovak Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, Šafárik University, Košice, Slovakia 2Faculty of Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine 4, Šafárik University, Košice, Slovakia 3Faculty of Medicine, Department of Medicine Biology, Šafárik University, Košice, Slovakia Corresponding author: Mária Rašiová, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Angiology, East Slovak Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, Šafárik University, 040 11 Košice, Slovakia. E- mail: [email protected] Short title: Gene variant rs7635818 and abdominal aortic aneurysm 2 Summary BACKGROUND: The association between gene variant rs7635818 located on chromosome 3p12.3 and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was not unambiguously determined by the results of genome-wide association studies. The aim of our study was to examine this possible association in the Slovak population, with respect to the presence and severity of AAA. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2016 and March 2020. The study included 329 participans, 166 AAA patients and a control group of 163 subjects without confirmed AAA with comparable distribution of genders. The anteroposterior diameter of the abdominal aorta was determined by duplex ultrasonography. AAA was defined as subrenal aortic diameter ≥ 30 mm. DNA samples were genotyped using real-time polymerase chain reaction and subsequent high-resolution melting analysis in presence of unlabelled probe. Genetic models studying the possible association were adjusted to age, sex, smoking, arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, creatinine and body mass index (BMI) in multivariate analysis.
