A Deficiência Intelectual (DI) é uma condição complexa, que acomete 2-3% da população mundial, constituindo um importante problema de saúde pública. No entanto, uma parcela significativa dos casos de DI permanece sem um diagnóstico definitivo, o que demonstra que muitos fatores etiológicos associados a esta condição ainda precisam ser elucidados. Há um consenso de que o número de homens com DI supera em 30% o número de mulheres, um achado atribuído à presença de mutações em genes localizados no cromossomo X. Dentre os genes presentes neste cromossomo que são expressos no cérebro, o Jumonji AT-rich interactive domain 1C (JARID1C) foi identificado como um potencial candidato a estar relacionado à DI ligada ao X (DILX). O gene JARID1C codifica uma desmetilase da lisina 4 da histona H3 (H3K4), imprescindível para a regulação epigenética. Tão importante quanto o estudo do gene JARID1C em pacientes com DI é a busca por variações no número de cópias gênicas (VNCs) em regiões cromossômicas subteloméricas. Genes relacionados ao desenvolvimento cerebral são enriquecidos em VNCs e as regiões subteloméricas são mais susceptíveis à formação destes rearranjos. Diante do exposto, neste estudo, investigamos mutações no gene JARID1C (exons 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 14 e 23) em 148 homens portadores de DI pertencentes a famílias com padrão de segregação sugestivo de DILX. Paralelamente, analisamos VNCs subteloméricas em 174 homens com DI familiar de etiologia idiopática, independente do padrão de segregação. Para todos os indivíduos selecionados, amostras de DNA genômico foram extraídas a partir de sangue periférico e alterações genéticas frequentemente relacionadas à DI foram previamente excluídas (expansões trinucleotídicas nos loci FRAXA e FRAXE e mutações nos genes MECP2 e ARX). A análise do gene JARID1C foi realizada pela técnica de PCR, seguida da análise dos produtos amplificados por sequenciamento. Foram identificadas quatro variantes silenciosas (c.564G>A, c.633G>C, c.1884G>A, c.1902C>A). Através da análise in silico de sequências exônicas acentuadoras de splicing (ESEs) localizadas nas posições das variantes encontradas, foi possível classificar a variante c.1884G>A como neutra e as três variantes restantes como possíveis criadoras de ESEs. Já para a investigação das VNCs subteloméricas, foi utilizada a metodologia de Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA), capaz de identificar microdeleções e microduplicações nas 46 regiões subteloméricas. Para este fim, inicialmente, os indivíduos foram investigados pelo kit de MLPA P036, enquanto que para aqueles que exibiram alterações também foi utilizado o kit P070. A validação das VNCs encontradas foi realizada por PCR quantitativo em Tempo Real. A análise por MLPA revelou um indivíduo apresentando duas deleções (9p e 13q), um indivíduo apresentando duas amplificações (1p e 2p), dois indivíduos apresentando uma deleção e uma amplificação (18p e 18q; 4p e 8p), quatro indivíduos portadores de uma deleção cada (10p, 20p, 3q e 22q) e dois indivíduos com uma amplificação cada (7q e 20p). Algumas das alterações subteloméricas encontradas (2,87%) representam VNCs de relevância clínica para o estudo da DI, reforçando a importância do rastreamento de rotina de VNCs subteloméricas na DI familiar. Consideramos que a elucidação de novos genes ou mecanismos moleculares diretamente relacionados à DI é um caminho promissor e urgente para o estabelecimento de novas estratégias terapêuticas possíveis.

Tumor microenvironmental stresses, such as hypoxia and lactic acidosis, play important roles in tumor progression. Although gene signatures reflecting the influence of these stresses are powerful approaches to link expression with phenotypes, they do not fully reflect the complexity of human cancers. Here, we describe the use of latent factor models to further dissect the stress gene signatures in a breast cancer expression dataset. The genes in these latent factors are coordinately expressed in tumors and depict distinct, interacting components of the biological processes. The genes in several latent factors are highly enriched in chromosomal locations. When these factors are analyzed in independent datasets with gene expression and array CGH data, the expression values of these factors are highly correlated with copy number alterations (CNAs) of the corresponding BAC clones in both the cell lines and tumors. Therefore, variation in the expression of these pathway-associated factors is at least partially caused by variation in gene dosage and CNAs among breast cancers. We have also found the expression of two latent factors without any chromosomal enrichment is highly associated with 12q CNA, likely an instance of "trans"-variations in which CNA leads to the variations in gene expression outside of the CNA region. In addition, we have found that factor 26 (1q CNA) is negatively correlated with HIF-1alpha protein and hypoxia pathways in breast tumors and cell lines. This agrees with, and for the first time links, known good prognosis associated with both a low hypoxia signature and the presence of CNA in this region. Taken together, these results suggest the possibility that tumor segmental aneuploidy makes significant contributions to variation in the lactic acidosis/hypoxia gene signatures in human cancers and demonstrate that latent factor analysis is a powerful means to uncover such a linkage.

We present the analysis of twenty human genomes to evaluate the prospects for identifying rare functional variants that contribute to a phenotype of interest. We sequenced at high coverage ten "case" genomes from individuals with severe hemophilia A and ten "control" genomes. We summarize the number of genetic variants emerging from a study of this magnitude, and provide a proof of concept for the identification of rare and highly-penetrant functional variants by confirming that the cause of hemophilia A is easily recognizable in this data set. We also show that the number of novel single nucleotide variants (SNVs) discovered per genome seems to stabilize at about 144,000 new variants per genome, after the first 15 individuals have been sequenced. Finally, we find that, on average, each genome carries 165 homozygous protein-truncating or stop loss variants in genes representing a diverse set of pathways.

BACKGROUND: Prostate cancer (PCa) is a clinically and pathologically heterogeneous disease. The rapid development of sequencing technology has the potential to deliver new biomarkers with emphasis on aggressive disease and to revolutionise personalised cancer treatment. However, a prostate harbouring cancer commonly contains multiple separate tumour foci, with the potential to aggravate tumour sampling. The level of intraprostatic tumour heterogeneity remains to be determined.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the level of intraprostatic tumour heterogeneity through genome-wide, high-resolution profiling of multiple tumour samples from the same individual.

DESIGN, SETTINGS, AND PARTICIPANTS: Multiple tumour samples were obtained from four individuals following radical prostatectomy. One individual (SWE-1) contained >70% cancer cells in all tumour samples, whereas the other three (SWE-2 to SWE-4) required the use of laser capture microdissection for tumour cell enrichment. Subsequently, DNA was extracted from all tissue samples, and exome sequencing was performed. All tumour foci of SWE-1 were also profiled using a high-resolution array for the identification of copy number alterations (CNA).

OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Shared somatic high-frequency single nucleotide variants (SNV) and CNAs were used to infer the level of intraprostatic tumour heterogeneity.

RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: No high-frequency mutations, common for the three tumour samples of SWE-1, were identified. Ten randomly chosen positions were validated with Sanger sequencing in all foci, which verified the exome data. The high level of intraprostatic heterogeneity was consistent in all individuals. In total, three out of four individuals harboured tumours without an apparent common somatic denominator. Although we cannot exclude the presence of common structural rearrangements, a high-density array was used for the detection of deletions and amplifications in SWE-1, which agreed with the exome data.

CONCLUSIONS: We present evidence for the presence of somatically independent tumours within the same prostate. This finding will have implications for personalised cancer treatment and biomarker discovery.

The identification of associations between interleukin-28B (IL-28B) variants and the spontaneous clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) raises the issues of causality and the net contribution of host genetics to the trait. To estimate more precisely the net effect of IL-28B genetic variation on HCV clearance, we optimized genotyping and compared the host contributions in multiple- and single-source cohorts to control for viral and demographic effects. The analysis included individuals with chronic or spontaneously cleared HCV infections from a multiple-source cohort (n = 389) and a single-source cohort (n = 71). We performed detailed genotyping in the coding region of IL-28B and searched for copy number variations to identify the genetic variant or haplotype carrying the strongest association with viral clearance. This analysis was used to compare the effects of IL-28B variation in the two cohorts. Haplotypes characterized by carriage of the major alleles at IL-28B single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were highly overrepresented in individuals with spontaneous clearance versus those with chronic HCV infections (66.1% versus 38.6%, P = 6 × 10(-9) ). The odds ratios for clearance were 2.1 [95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.6-3.0] and 3.9 (95% CI = 1.5-10.2) in the multiple- and single-source cohorts, respectively. Protective haplotypes were in perfect linkage (r(2) = 1.0) with a nonsynonymous coding variant (rs8103142). Copy number variants were not detected. We identified IL-28B haplotypes highly predictive of spontaneous HCV clearance. The high linkage disequilibrium between IL-28B SNPs indicates that association studies need to be complemented by functional experiments to identify single causal variants. The point estimate for the genetic effect was higher in the single-source cohort, which was used to effectively control for viral diversity, sex, and coinfections and, therefore, offered a precise estimate of the net host genetic contribution.

There are many known taste receptors specific to each taste attribute. This thesis examines the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and copy number variations (CNVs) in known taste and taste pathway receptors TAS2R38, Gustin, and TRPM5 and for PROP (6-n-propylthiouracil) taster status (PTS), thermal taster status (TTS), and orosensory sensation intensity ratings. PTS is a proxy for general taste responsiveness, and the ability to taste PROP classifies individuals into three phenotypes: super (PST), medium (PMT), and non-tasters (PNT). Another taste phenotype, also serving as a proxy for general taste responsiveness, is TTS, classifying individuals as thermal tasters (TTs) or thermal non-tasters (TnTs). DNA extractions from buccal cells obtained from 60 individuals were performed and analysis of TAS2R38, Gustin, and TRPM5 variations were conducted through Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), sequencing for SNPs, and upQMPSF for CNV analysis of TRPM5. Among the SNPs and CNVs studied, only TAS2R38 was found to be significantly associated with PTS and intensity ratings for sweet, bitter, and sour taste as well as astringency. However, not all PROP phenotypic differences can be explained by the variations at these three SNP sites in TAS2R38, suggesting the involvement of additional genes. No association was found between TTS and TAS2R38 or Gustin, confirming that PTS and TTS are not genetically associated. The examined TRPM5 SNPs and CNVs did not correlate with TTS. Therefore, further research is necessary into other factors contributing to PTS and TTS.

Le Syndrome d’Impatiences Musculaires de l’Éveil (SIME) est une maladie neurologique caractérisée par un besoin urgent de bouger les jambes. C’est également l’une des causes les plus fréquentes d’insomnie. C’est une maladie très répandue, avec une prévalence de presque 15 % dans la population générale. Les maladies multifactorielles comme le SIME sont souvent le résultat de l’évolution d’une composante génétique et d’une composante environnementale. Dans le cadre du SIME, les études d’association génomique ont permis l’identification de 4 variants à effet modéré ou faible. Cependant, ces quatre variants n’expliquent qu’une faible partie de la composante génétique de la maladie, ce qui confirme que plusieurs nouveaux variants sont encore à identifier. Le rôle des déséquilibres génomiques (Copy Number Variations ou CNVs) dans le mécanisme génétique du SIME est à ce jour inconnu. Cependant, les CNVs se sont récemment positionnés comme une source d’intérêt majeur de variation génétique potentiellement responsable des phénotypes. En collaboration avec une équipe de Munich, nous avons réalisé deux études CNVs à échelle génomique (biopuces à SNP et hybridation génomique comparée (CGH)) sur des patients SIME d’ascendance germanique. À l’aide d’une étude cas-contrôle, nous avons pu identifier des régions avec une occurrence de CNVs différentes pour les patients SIME, comparés à différents groupes contrôles. L’une de ces régions est particulièrement intéressante, car elle est concordante à la fois avec des précédentes études familiales ainsi qu’avec les récentes études d’associations génomiques.

Les études génétiques, telles que les études de liaison ou d’association, ont permis d’acquérir une plus grande connaissance sur l’étiologie de plusieurs maladies affectant les populations humaines. Même si une dizaine de milliers d’études génétiques ont été réalisées sur des centaines de maladies ou autres traits, une grande partie de leur héritabilité reste inexpliquée. Depuis une dizaine d’années, plusieurs percées dans le domaine de la génomique ont été réalisées. Par exemple, l’utilisation des micropuces d’hybridation génomique comparative à haute densité a permis de démontrer l’existence à grande échelle des variations et des polymorphismes en nombre de copies. Ces derniers sont maintenant détectables à l’aide de micropuce d’ADN ou du séquençage à haut débit. De plus, des études récentes utilisant le séquençage à haut débit ont permis de démontrer que la majorité des variations présentes dans l’exome d’un individu étaient rares ou même propres à cet individu. Ceci a permis la conception d’une nouvelle micropuce d’ADN permettant de déterminer rapidement et à faible coût le génotype de plusieurs milliers de variations rares pour un grand ensemble d’individus à la fois. Dans ce contexte, l’objectif général de cette thèse vise le développement de nouvelles méthodologies et de nouveaux outils bio-informatiques de haute performance permettant la détection, à de hauts critères de qualité, des variations en nombre de copies et des variations nucléotidiques rares dans le cadre d’études génétiques. Ces avancées permettront, à long terme, d’expliquer une plus grande partie de l’héritabilité manquante des traits complexes, poussant ainsi l’avancement des connaissances sur l’étiologie de ces derniers. Un algorithme permettant le partitionnement des polymorphismes en nombre de copies a donc été conçu, rendant possible l’utilisation de ces variations structurales dans le cadre d’étude de liaison génétique sur données familiales. Ensuite, une étude exploratoire a permis de caractériser les différents problèmes associés aux études génétiques utilisant des variations en nombre de copies rares sur des individus non reliés. Cette étude a été réalisée avec la collaboration du Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics de l’University of Oxford. Par la suite, une comparaison de la performance des algorithmes de génotypage lors de leur utilisation avec une nouvelle micropuce d’ADN contenant une majorité de marqueurs rares a été réalisée. Finalement, un outil bio-informatique permettant de filtrer de façon efficace et rapide des données génétiques a été implémenté. Cet outil permet de générer des données de meilleure qualité, avec une meilleure reproductibilité des résultats, tout en diminuant les chances d’obtenir une fausse association.

Chromosomal microarray (CMA) is increasingly utilized for genetic testing of individuals with unexplained developmental delay/intellectual disability (DD/ID), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), or multiple congenital anomalies (MCA). Performing CMA and G-banded karyotyping on every patient substantially increases the total cost of genetic testing. The International Standard Cytogenomic Array (ISCA) Consortium held two international workshops and conducted a literature review of 33 studies, including 21,698 patients tested by CMA. We provide an evidence-based summary of clinical cytogenetic testing comparing CMA to G-banded karyotyping with respect to technical advantages and limitations, diagnostic yield for various types of chromosomal aberrations, and issues that affect test interpretation. CMA offers a much higher diagnostic yield (15%-20%) for genetic testing of individuals with unexplained DD/ID, ASD, or MCA than a G-banded karyotype (similar to 3%, excluding Down syndrome and other recognizable chromosomal syndromes), primarily because of its higher sensitivity for submicroscopic deletions and duplications. Truly balanced rearrangements and low-level mosaicism are generally not detectable by arrays, but these are relatively infrequent causes of abnormal phenotypes in this population (<1%). Available evidence strongly supports the use of CMA in place of G-banded karyotyping as the first-tier cytogenetic diagnostic test for patients with DD/ID, ASD, or MCA. G-banded karyotype analysis should be reserved for patients with obvious chromosomal syndromes (e.g., Down syndrome), a family history of chromosomal rearrangement, or a history of multiple miscarriages.

Children of obese mothers have increased risk of metabolic syndrome as adults. Here we report the effects of a high-fat diet in the absence of maternal obesity at conception on skeletal muscle metabolic and transcriptional profiles of adult male offspring. Female Sprague Dawley rats were fed a diet rich in saturated fat and sucrose [high-fat diet (HFD): 23.5% total fat, 9.83% saturated fat, 20% sucrose wt:wt] or a normal control diet [(CD) 7% total fat, 0.5% saturated fat, 10% sucrose wt:wt] for the 3 wk prior to mating and throughout pregnancy and lactation. Maternal weights were not different at conception; however, HFD-fed dams were 22% heavier than controls during pregnancy. On a normal diet, the male offspring of HFD-fed dams were not heavier than controls but demonstrated features of insulin resistance, including elevated plasma insulin concentration [40.1 ± 2.5 (CD) vs 56.2 ± 6.1 (HFD) mU/L; P = 0.023]. Next-generation mRNA sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes in the offspring soleus muscle, and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to detect coordinated changes that are characteristic of a biological function. GSEA identified 15 upregulated pathways, including cytokine signaling (P < 0.005), starch and sucrose metabolism (P < 0.017), inflammatory response (P < 0.024), and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (P < 0.037). A further 8 pathways were downregulated, including oxidative phosphorylation (P < 0.004), mitochondrial matrix (P < 0.006), and electron transport/uncoupling (P < 0.022). Phosphorylation of the insulin signaling protein kinase B was reduced [2.86 ± 0.63 (CD) vs 1.02 ± 0.27 (HFD); P = 0.027] and mitochondrial complexes I, II, and V protein were downregulated by 50-68% (P < 0.005). On a normal diet, the male offspring of HFD-fed dams did not become obese adults but developed insulin resistance, with transcriptional evidence of muscle cytokine activation, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. These data indicate that maternal overnutrition, even in the absence of prepregnancy obesity, can promote metabolic dysregulation and predispose offspring to type 2 diabetes.

Some modifying factors may determine the risk of brain tumors. Until now, it could not be attempted to identify people at risk and also to improve significantly disease progression. Current therapy consists of surgical resection, followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Despite of these treatments, the prognosis for patients is poor. In this review, we highlight general aspects concerning genetic alterations in brain tumors, namely astrocytomas, glioblastomas, oligodendrogliomas, medulloblastomas and ependymomas. The influence of these genetic alterations in patients' prognosis is discussed. Mutagen sensivity is associated with cancer risk. The convincing studies that linked DNA damages and DNA repair alterations with brain tumors are also described. Another important modifying factor is immunity. General immune response against cancer, tumor microenvironment and immune response, mechanisms of tumor escape, CNS tumor immunology, immune defects that impair anti-tumor systemic immunity in brain tumor patients and local immunosuppressive factors within CNS are also reviewed. New hope to treatment perspectives, as dendritic-cell-based vaccines is summarized too. Concluding, it seems well established that there is association between brain tumor risk and mutagen sensivity, which is highly heritable. Primary brain tumors cause depression in systemic host immunity; local immunosuppressive factors and immunological characteristics of tumor cells may explain the poor prognosis and DNA damages responses can alert immune system. However, it is necessary to clarify if individuals with both constitutional defects in immune functions and genetic instability have higher risk of developing brain tumors. Cytogenetic prospective studies and gene copy number variations analysis also must be performed in peripheral lymphocytes from brain tumor patients. © 2011 Bentham Science Publishers Ltd.

Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a complex disorder whose clinical features include mild to severe intellectual disability with speech delay, growth failure, brachycephaly, flat midface, short broad hands, and behavioral problems. SMS is typically caused by a large deletion on 17p11.2 that encompasses multiple genes including the retinoic acid induced 1, RAI1, gene or a mutation in the RAI1 gene. Here we have evaluated 30 patients with suspected SMS and identified SMS-associated classical 17p11.2 deletions in six patients, an atypical deletion of ∼139 kb that partially deletes the RAI1 gene in one patient, and RAI1 gene nonsynonymous alterations of unknown significance in two unrelated patients. The RAI1 mutant proteins showed no significant alterations in molecular weight, subcellular localization and transcriptional activity. Clinical features of patients with or without 17p11.2 deletions and mutations involving the RAI1 gene were compared to identify phenotypes that may be useful in diagnosing patients with SMS. © 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved.

Background: Uterine Leiomyomas (ULs) are the most common benign tumours affecting women of reproductive age. ULs represent a major problem in public health, as they are the main indication for hysterectomy. Approximately 40-50% of ULs have non-random cytogenetic abnormalities, and half of ULs may have copy number alterations (CNAs). Gene expression microarrays studies have demonstrated that cell proliferation genes act in response to growth factors and steroids. However, only a few genes mapping to CNAs regions were found to be associated with ULs. Methodology: We applied an integrative analysis using genomic and transcriptomic data to identify the pathways and molecular markers associated with ULs. Fifty-one fresh frozen specimens were evaluated by array CGH (JISTIC) and gene expression microarrays (SAM). The CONEXIC algorithm was applied to integrate the data. Principal Findings: The integrated analysis identified the top 30 significant genes (P<0.01), which comprised genes associated with cancer, whereas the protein-protein interaction analysis indicated a strong association between FANCA and BRCA1. Functional in silico analysis revealed target molecules for drugs involved in cell proliferation, including FGFR1 and IGFBP5. Transcriptional and protein analyses showed that FGFR1 (P = 0.006 and P<0.01, respectively) and IGFBP5 (P = 0.0002 and P = 0.006, respectively) were up-regulated in the tumours when compared with the adjacent normal myometrium. Conclusions: The integrative genomic and transcriptomic approach indicated that FGFR1 and IGFBP5 amplification, as well as the consequent up-regulation of the protein products, plays an important role in the aetiology of ULs and thus provides data for potential drug therapies development to target genes associated with cellular proliferation in ULs. © 2013 Cirilo et al.

Os tumores bem diferenciados da tireóide representam mais de 95% das neoplasias malignas da glândula. A identificação pré-operatória dos carcinomas papilíferos está bem estabelecida através dos métodos de Punção aspirativa por Agulha fina e Ultrassonografia, com quase 100% de acurácia, enquanto os tumores foliculares significam um dilema para o cirurgião, visto que os métodos existentes não conseguem determinar com eficiência o diagnóstico sendo que 60-80% dos casos operados são benignos. Dessa forma, com o intuito de se analisar alterações genômicas do tipo variações no número de cópias (CNVs) que possam diferenciar esse tumor de outros tipos de doenças da tireóide, foram analisados 13 pacientes com doença tireoidiana (3 bócios, 2 hiperplasias, 4 adenomas foliculares e 4 carcinomas foliculares ) mais 1 individuo sadio através do método de aCGH, para identificação de CNVs que pudessem determinar com eficiência a presença de carcinoma folicular. Os achados foram confrontados com dados de carcinomas papilífero clássico (4 pacientes) e variante folicular (2 pacientes). Foram encontradas 725 CNVs na amostra, 703 dos pacientes com patologia. Dentre estas foram selecionadas 18 regiões mais frequentes. Houve um padrão de amplificação maior em pacientes jovens com adenomas e deleção em pacientes mais velhos. Os pacientes com carcinoma apresentaram taxas de CNVs muito próximas. Os carcinomas foliculares apresentaram padrões exclusivos de alteração nos cromossomos 8 e 12. Concluímos, assim, que os carcinomas foliculares da tireoide são uma patologia com um padrão exclusivo de alterações, não havendo correlação de progressão tumoral a partir de adenomas foliculares, sendo que duas regiões -8p22 e 12p13.32-p13.33, estão presentes em 100% e 75% das amostras respectivamente, podendo ser fortes candidatos a marcadores desse tipo tumoral.
