View SamplesEpigenetic alterations may provide important insights into gene-environment interaction in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here we observe epigenome-wide DNA methylation differences in 240 newly-diagnosed IBD cases and 190 controls. These include 439 differentially methylated positions (DMPs) and 5 differentially methylated regions (DMRs), which we study in detail using whole genome bisulphite sequencing. We replicate the top DMP (RPS6KA2) and DMRs (VMP1, ITGB2, TXK) in an independent cohort.

View SamplesWe present primary results from the Sequencing Quality Control (SEQC) project, coordinated by the United States Food and Drug Administration. Examining Illumina HiSeq, Life Technologies SOLiD and Roche 454 platforms at multiple laboratory sites using reference RNA samples with built-in controls, we assess RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) performance for sequence discovery and differential expression profiling and compare it to microarray and quantitative PCR (qPCR) data using complementary metrics. At all sequencing depths, we discover unannotated exon-exon junctions, with >80% validated by qPCR. We find that measurements of relative expression are accurate and reproducible across sites and platforms if specific filters are used. In contrast, RNA-seq and microarrays do not provide accurate absolute measurements, and gene-specific biases are observed, for these and qPCR. Measurement performance depends on the platform and data analysis pipeline, and variation is large for transcriptlevel profiling. The complete SEQC data sets, comprising >100 billion reads (10Tb), provide unique resources for evaluating RNA-seq analyses for clinical and regulatory settings.

View SamplesHuntington's disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded stretch of CAG trinucleotide repeats that results in neuronal dysfunction and death. We made induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from HD patients and controls. Though no obvious effects of the CAG expansion on reprogramming or subsequent neural stem cell (NSC) production were seen, HD-NSCs showed CAG expansion-associated gene expression patterns and, upon differentiation, changes in electrophysiology, metabolism, cell adhesion, and ultimately an increased risk of cell death for both medium and longer CAG repeat expansions, with some deficits greater in cells from longer repeat HD NSCs. The HD180 lines were more vulnerable than control lines to cellular stressors and BDNF withdrawal using a range of assays across consortium laboratories. This HD iPSC collection represents a unique and well-characterized resource to elucidate disease mechanisms in HD and provides a novel human stem cell platform for screening new candidate therapeutics.

View SamplesIn order to study parent-of-origin effects on gene expression, we performed RNAseq analysis (100bp single end reads) of 165 children who formed part of mother/father/child trios where genotype data was available from the HapMap and/or 1000 Genomes Projects. Based on phased genotypes at heterozygous SNP positions, we generated allelic counts for expression of the maternal and paternal alleles in each individual. This analysis reveals significant bias in the expression of the parental alleles for dozens of genes, including both previously known and novel imprinted transcripts. Overall design: This submission contains RNAseq data from 165 children from mother/father/child trios studied as part of the 1000 genomes and/or HapMap projects. We provide raw fastq format reads, and processed read counts per gene. Allelic count information can be provided by directly contacting the authors.
RNA-Seq in 296 phased trios provides a high-resolution map of genomic imprinting.
