Abstract

Funder: Fonds du Québec en Recherche, Santé (FRQS), Funder: Parkinson Quebec., Funder: Lund University, The direct reprogramming of adult skin fibroblasts to neurons is thought to be controlled by a small set of interacting gene regulators. Here, we investigate how the interaction dynamics between these regulating factors coordinate cellular decision making in direct neuronal reprogramming. We put forward a quantitative model of the governing gene regulatory system, supported by measurements of mRNA expression. We found that nPTB needs to feed back into the direct neural conversion network most likely via PTB in order to accurately capture quantitative gene interaction dynamics and correctly predict the outcome of various overexpression and knockdown experiments. This was experimentally validated by nPTB knockdown leading to successful neural conversion. We also proposed a novel analytical technique to dissect system behaviour and reveal the influence of individual factors on resulting gene expression. Overall, we demonstrate that computational analysis is a powerful tool for understanding the mechanisms of direct (neuronal) reprogramming, paving the way for future models that can help improve cell conversion strategies.

Using SNP profiles of 378 UC patients we map the regulatory effects of the SNPs to a human signalling network containing protein-protein, miRNA-mRNA and transcription factor binding interactions. With unsupervised clustering algorithms we group these patient-specific networks into four distinct clusters driven by PRKCB, HLA, SNAI1/CEBPB/PTPN1 and VEGFA/XPO5/POLH hubs. The pathway analysis identifies calcium homeostasis, wound healing and cell motility as key processes in UC pathogenesis. Using transcriptomic data from an independent patient cohort, with three complementary validation approaches focusing on the SNP-affected genes, the patient specific modules and affected functions, we confirm the regulatory impact of non-coding SNPs. iSNP identified regulatory effects for disease-associated non-coding SNPs, and by predicting the patient-specific pathogenic processes, we propose a systems-level way to stratify patients.

Abstract

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern suggests viral adaptation to enhance human-to-human transmission1,2. Although much effort has focused on the characterization of changes in the spike protein in variants of concern, mutations outside of spike are likely to contribute to adaptation. Here, using unbiased abundance proteomics, phosphoproteomics, RNA sequencing and viral replication assays, we show that isolates of the Alpha (B.1.1.7) variant3 suppress innate immune responses in airway epithelial cells more effectively than first-wave isolates. We found that the Alpha variant has markedly increased subgenomic RNA and protein levels of the nucleocapsid protein (N), Orf9b and Orf6—all known innate immune antagonists. Expression of Orf9b alone suppressed the innate immune response through interaction with TOM70, a mitochondrial protein that is required for activation of the RNA-sensing adaptor MAVS. Moreover, the activity of Orf9b and its association with TOM70 was regulated by phosphorylation. We propose that more effective innate immune suppression, through enhanced expression of specific viral antagonist proteins, increases the likelihood of successful transmission of the Alpha variant, and may increase in vivo replication and duration of infection4. The importance of mutations outside the spike coding region in the adaptation of SARS-CoV-2 to humans is underscored by the observation that similar mutations exist in the N and Orf9b regulatory regions of the Delta and Omicron variants., Nature, 602 (7897), ISSN:0028-0836, ISSN:1476-4687

Abstract

[Abstract] The cardiac troponin T variations have often been used as an example of the application of clinical genotyping for prognostication and risk stratification measures for the management of patients with a family history of sudden cardiac death or familial cardiomyopathy. Given the disparity in patient outcomes and therapy options, we investigated the impact of variations on the intermolecular interactions across the thin filament complex as an example of an unbiased systems biology method to better define clinical prognosis to aid future management options. We present a novel unbiased dynamic model to define and analyse the functional, structural and physico-chemical consequences of genetic variations among the troponins. This was subsequently integrated with clinical data from accessible global multi-centre systematic reviews of familial cardiomyopathy cases from 106 articles of the literature: 136 disease-causing variations pertaining to 981 global clinical cases. Troponin T variations showed distinct pathogenic hotspots for dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathies; considering the causes of cardiovascular death separately, there was a worse survival in terms of sudden cardiac death for patients with a variation at regions 90–129 and 130–179 when compared to amino acids 1–89 and 200–288. Our data support variations among 90–130 as being a hotspot for sudden cardiac death and the region 131–179 for heart failure death/transplantation outcomes wherein the most common phenotype was dilated cardiomyopathy. Survival analysis into regions of high risk (regions 90–129 and 130–180) and low risk (regions 1–89 and 200–288) was significant for sudden cardiac death (p = 0.011) and for heart failure death/transplant (p = 0.028). Our integrative genomic, structural, model from genotype to clinical data integration has implications for enhancing clinical genomics methodologies to improve risk stratification.

Abstract

Red blood cells (RBCs) play a critical role in oxygen transport, and are the focus of important diseases including malaria and the haemoglobinopathies. Proteins at the RBC surface can determine susceptibility to disease, however previous studies classifying the RBC proteome have not used specific strategies directed at enriching cell surface proteins. Furthermore, there has been no systematic analysis of variation in abundance of RBC surface proteins between genetically disparate human populations. These questions are important to inform not only basic RBC biology but additionally to identify novel candidate receptors for malarial parasites. Here, we use ‘plasma membrane profiling’ and tandem mass tag-based mass spectrometry to enrich and quantify primary RBC cell surface proteins from two sets of nine donors from the UK or Senegal. We define a RBC surface proteome and identify potential Plasmodium receptors based on either diminished protein abundance, or increased variation in RBCs from West African individuals., Benjamin Ravenhill et al. use a mass spectrometry approach to enrich and quantify the proteome of the surface of red blood cells (RBCs) from donors in Senegal and the United Kingdom. They find 240 high confidence RBC cell surface proteins and identify differences between the populations as well as potential receptors for Plasmodium.

Abstract

PubMed: 31209238, The effectiveness of most cancer targeted therapies is short-lived. Tumors often develop resistance that might be overcome with drug combinations. However, the number of possible combinations is vast, necessitating data-driven approaches to find optimal patient-specific treatments. Here we report AstraZeneca’s large drug combination dataset, consisting of 11,576 experiments from 910 combinations across 85 molecularly characterized cancer cell lines, and results of a DREAM Challenge to evaluate computational strategies for predicting synergistic drug pairs and biomarkers. 160 teams participated to provide a comprehensive methodological development and benchmarking. Winning methods incorporate prior knowledge of drug-target interactions. Synergy is predicted with an accuracy matching biological replicates for >60% of combinations. However, 20% of drug combinations are poorly predicted by all methods. Genomic rationale for synergy predictions are identified, including ADAM17 inhibitor antagonism when combined with PIK3CB/D inhibition contrasting to synergy when combined with other PI3K-pathway inhibitors in PIK3CA mutant cells. © 2019, The Author(s)., National Institute for Health Research, NIHR Wellcome Trust, WT: 102696, 206194 Magyar Tudományos Akadémia, MTA Bayer 668858 PrECISE AstraZeneca, We thank the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer and COSMIC teams at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute for help with the preparation of the molecular data, Denes Turei for help with Omnipath, and Katjusa Koler for help with matching drug names across combination screens.

Abstract

Recent advances have enabled powerful methods to sort tumors into prognosis and treatment groups. We are still missing, however, a general theoretical framework to understand the vast diversity of tumor gene expression and mutations. Here we present a framework based on multi-task evolution theory, using the fact that tumors need to perform multiple tasks that contribute to their fitness. We find that trade-offs between tasks constrain tumor gene-expression to a continuum bounded by a polyhedron whose vertices are gene-expression profiles, each specializing in one task. We find five universal cancer tasks across tissue-types: cell-division, biomass and energy, lipogenesis, immune-interaction and invasion and tissue-remodeling. Tumors that specialize in a task are sensitive to drugs that interfere with this task. Driver, but not passenger, mutations tune gene-expression towards specialization in specific tasks. This approach can integrate additional types of molecular data into a framework of tumor diversity grounded in evolutionary theory., The evolutionary trade-offs faced by tumors are poorly understood, yet could contribute to the molecular diversity of cancer. Here, the authors analyze the diversity of genetic alterations, genes expressed and drug sensitivities among solid tumors to explore what evolutionary trade-offs may explain the molecular diversity of tumors.

Abstract

The cardiac troponin T variations have often been used as an example of the application of clinical genotyping for prognostication and risk stratification measures for the management of patients with a family history of sudden cardiac death or familial cardiomyopathy. Given the disparity in patient outcomes and therapy options, we investigated the impact of variations on the intermolecular interactions across the thin filament complex as an example of an unbiased systems biology method to better define clinical prognosis to aid future management options. We present a novel unbiased dynamic model to define and analyse the functional, structural and physico-chemical consequences of genetic variations among the troponins. This was subsequently integrated with clinical data from accessible global multi-centre systematic reviews of familial cardiomyopathy cases from 106 articles of the literature: 136 disease-causing variations pertaining to 981 global clinical cases. Troponin T variations showed distinct pathogenic hotspots for dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathies; considering the causes of cardiovascular death separately, there was a worse survival in terms of sudden cardiac death for patients with a variation at regions 90–129 and 130–179 when compared to amino acids 1–89 and 200–288. Our data support variations among 90–130 as being a hotspot for sudden cardiac death and the region 131–179 for heart failure death/transplantation outcomes wherein the most common phenotype was dilated cardiomyopathy. Survival analysis into regions of high risk (regions 90–129 and 130–180) and low risk (regions 1–89 and 200–288) was significant for sudden cardiac death (p = 0.011) and for heart failure death/transplant (p = 0.028). Our integrative genomic, structural, model from genotype to clinical data integration has implications for enhancing clinical genomics methodologies to improve risk stratification.

Abstract

The effectiveness of most cancer targeted therapies is short-lived. Tumors often develop resistance that might be overcome with drug combinations. However, the number of possible combinations is vast, necessitating data-driven approaches to find optimal patient-specific treatments. Here we report AstraZeneca’s large drug combination dataset, consisting of 11,576 experiments from 910 combinations across 85 molecularly characterized cancer cell lines, and results of a DREAM Challenge to evaluate computational strategies for predicting synergistic drug pairs and biomarkers. 160 teams participated to provide a comprehensive methodological development and benchmarking. Winning methods incorporate prior knowledge of drug-target interactions. Synergy is predicted with an accuracy matching biological replicates for >60% of combinations. However, 20% of drug combinations are poorly predicted by all methods. Genomic rationale for synergy predictions are identified, including ADAM17 inhibitor antagonism when combined with PIK3CB/D inhibition contrasting to synergy when combined with other PI3K-pathway inhibitors in PIK3CA mutant cells.

Abstract

Red blood cells (RBCs) play a critical role in oxygen transport, and are the focus of important diseases including malaria and the haemoglobinopathies. Proteins at the RBC surface can determine susceptibility to disease, however previous studies classifying the RBC proteome have not used specific strategies directed at enriching cell surface proteins. Furthermore, there has been no systematic analysis of variation in abundance of RBC surface proteins between genetically disparate human populations. These questions are important to inform not only basic RBC biology but additionally to identify novel candidate receptors for malarial parasites. Here, we use ‘plasma membrane profiling’ and tandem mass tag-based mass spectrometry to enrich and quantify primary RBC cell surface proteins from two sets of nine donors from the UK or Senegal. We define a RBC surface proteome and identify potential Plasmodium receptors based on either diminished protein abundance, or increased variation in RBCs from West African individuals.

Abstract

The cardiac troponin T variations have often been used as an example of the application of clinical genotyping for prognostication and risk stratification measures for the management of patients with a family history of sudden cardiac death or familial cardiomyopathy. Given the disparity in patient outcomes and therapy options, we investigated the impact of variations on the intermolecular interactions across the thin filament complex as an example of an unbiased systems biology method to better define clinical prognosis to aid future management options. We present a novel unbiased dynamic model to define and analyse the functional, structural and physico-chemical consequences of genetic variations among the troponins. This was subsequently integrated with clinical data from accessible global multi-centre systematic reviews of familial cardiomyopathy cases from 106 articles of the literature: 136 disease-causing variations pertaining to 981 global clinical cases. Troponin T variations showed distinct pathogenic hotspots for dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathies; considering the causes of cardiovascular death separately, there was a worse survival in terms of sudden cardiac death for patients with a variation at regions 90–129 and 130–179 when compared to amino acids 1–89 and 200–288. Our data support variations among 90–130 as being a hotspot for sudden cardiac death and the region 131–179 for heart failure death/transplantation outcomes wherein the most common phenotype was dilated cardiomyopathy. Survival analysis into regions of high risk (regions 90–129 and 130–180) and low risk (regions 1–89 and 200–288) was significant for sudden cardiac death (p = 0.011) and for heart failure death/transplant (p = 0.028). Our integrative genomic, structural, model from genotype to clinical data integration has implications for enhancing clinical genomics methodologies to improve risk stratification.

Abstract

Funder: Schweizerischer Nationalfonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung (Swiss National Science Foundation); doi: https://doi.org/10.13039/501100001711, Funder: Abisch-Frenkel-Stiftung (Abisch-Frenkel Foundation); doi: https://doi.org/10.13039/501100007362, Recent advances have enabled powerful methods to sort tumors into prognosis and treatment groups. We are still missing, however, a general theoretical framework to understand the vast diversity of tumor gene expression and mutations. Here we present a framework based on multi-task evolution theory, using the fact that tumors need to perform multiple tasks that contribute to their fitness. We find that trade-offs between tasks constrain tumor gene-expression to a continuum bounded by a polyhedron whose vertices are gene-expression profiles, each specializing in one task. We find five universal cancer tasks across tissue-types: cell-division, biomass and energy, lipogenesis, immune-interaction and invasion and tissue-remodeling. Tumors that specialize in a task are sensitive to drugs that interfere with this task. Driver, but not passenger, mutations tune gene-expression towards specialization in specific tasks. This approach can integrate additional types of molecular data into a framework of tumor diversity grounded in evolutionary theory.
