Description
Whole blood transcriptional signatures distinguishing patients with active tuberculosis from asymptomatic latently infected individuals have been described but, no consensus exists for the composition of optimal reduced gene sets as diagnostic biomarkers that also achieve discrimination from other diseases. Overall design: We undertook RNA Sequencing (RNA-Seq) of our earlier Berry et al. 2010 (GSE19444 and GSE19442) cohorts and additionally set up a prospective cohort study at Leicester (UK) in subject groups of incident TB and recent TB contacts, respectively. In the Leicester cohort, we performed systematic longitudinal sampling and clinical characterisation first, to validate our TB signature using RNA-Seq in a new and independent cohort of individuals with active TB and LTBI, and secondly to provide longitudinal data in a low TB incidence setting.

Affymetrix Human Gene 2.1 ST Array (hugene21st)
Description
Inverse and erythrodermic psoriasis are rare subtypes of psoriasis. Whereas the former is characterized by shiny erythematous non-scaly plaques in the body folds, the latter has widespread redness with fine scale, covering over 80% of the body-surface area, and can be life-threatening. Both are considered to be clinical subtypes of chronic plaque psoriasis, and often co-exist or evolve from plaque psoriasis (Boyd and Menter, 1989; Omland and Gniadecki, 2015), but the pathogenic mechanisms involved are unknown, and current treatments are frequently unsatisfactory. To assess shared and unique processes between chronic plaque, inverse, and erythrodermic psoriasis we analyzed archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsies of clinically and histologically confirmed chronic plaque (n=12), inverse (n=40) and erythrodermic psoriasis cases (n=30) and healthy control skin (n=20) using Affymetrix ST 2.1 Arrays. Compared with healthy skin, psoriatic plaque lesions yielded 2450 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (FDR, p<0.05), inverse psoriasis lesions yielded 408 DEGs (FDR, p<0.05) and erythrodermic psoriasis lesions yielded 447 DEGs (FDR, p<0.05). In total 294 genes were found to be shared among the three disease subtypes (FDR, p<0.05). While the overlap only accounted for 12% of the DEGs in chronic plaque psoriasis, it accounted for 66% and 72% of DEGs in erythrodermic and inverse psoriasis respectively.

Description
Generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a rare, debilitating, and often life-threatening inflammatory disease characterized by episodic infiltration of neutrophils into the skin, pustule development, and systemic inflammation, which can manifest in the presence or absence of chronic plaque psoriasis (PV). Current treatments are unsatisfactory thus a better understanding the pathogenesis of GPP is warranted. To assess the pathophysiological differences between GPP and PV we performed a gene expression study on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsies of GPP (n=30) and PV (n=12) lesions and healthy control (n=20) skin. Compared with healthy skin, GPP lesions yielded 365 and PV 898 differentially expressed genes respectively, with 190 upregulated in both diseases. We detected higher expression of IL-1 and IL-36 cytokines in GPP lesions compared with PV, and this occurred proximal to neutrophils. We show both activated neutrophils and isolated neutrophil proteases can activate IL-36. Diverging from the Th1/Th17 pathophysiology of PV, significantly fewer IL23A, IL17A, IFNG, CXCL9, CXCL10 and MX1 transcripts were detected in GPP lesions. Our data indicate a level of sustained activation of IL-1 and IL-36 in GPP, inducing neutrophil chemokine expression, infiltration and pustule formation, suggesting that the IL-1 and IL-36 inflammatory axes are the main drivers of disease pathology in GPP.

Description
During vertebrate limb development, Hoxd genes are regulated following a bimodal strategy involving two topologically associating domains (TADs) located on either side of the gene cluster. These regulatory landscapes alternatively control different subsets of Hoxd targets, first into the arm and, subsequently, into the digits. We studied the transition between these two global regulations, a switch that correlates with the positioning of the wrist, which articulates these two main limb segments. We show that the HOX13 proteins themselves help switch off the telomeric TAD, likely through a global repressive mechanism. At the same time, they directly interact with distal enhancers to sustain the activity of the centromeric TAD, thus explaining both the sequential and exclusive operating processes of these two regulatory domains. We propose a model whereby the activation of Hox13 gene expression in distal limb cells both interrupts the proximal Hox gene regulation and re-enforces the distal regulation. In the absence of HOX13 proteins, a proximal limb structure grows without any sign of wrist articulation, likely related to an ancestral fish-like condition. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis of proximal and distal forelimbs from E12.5 wt or Hoxa13-/-;Hoxd13-/- mutant embryos

Description
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic disease characterized by the development of scaly red skin lesions and possible co-morbid conditions. The psoriasis lesional skin transcriptome has been extensively investigated, but mRNA levels do not necessarily reflect protein abundance. Methods: Lesional (PP) and uninvolved (PN) skin samples from 14 patients were analyzed using high-throughput complementary DNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Results: We identified 4122 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) along with 748 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). Global shifts in mRNA were modestly correlated with changes in protein abundance (r = 0.40). We identified similar numbers of increased and decreased DEGs, but 4-fold more increased than decreased DEPs. Ribosomal subunit and translation proteins were elevated within lesions, without a corresponding shift in mRNA expression (RPL3, RPS8, RPL11). We identified 209 differentially expressed genes/proteins (DEGPs) with corresponding trends at the transcriptome and proteomic levels. Most DEGPs were similarly altered in at least one other skin disease. Psoriasis-specific and non-specific DEGPs had distinct cytokine-response patterns, with only the former showing disproportionate induction by IL-17A in cultured keratinocytes. Conclusions: Our findings reveal global imbalance between the number of increased and decreased proteins in psoriasis lesions, consistent with heightened translation. This effect could not have been discerned from mRNA profiling data alone. We have also identified high-confidence DEGPs and shown that only those most specific to psoriasis are enriched with IL-17A targets. Overall design: RNA-seq-based comparison between gene expression in psoriasis lesions and uninvolved skin from 14 patients

Description
Cyclosporine A (CsA), is an endecapeptide with strong immunosuppressant activities and has contributed significantly towards clinical progress in organ transplantation. Furthermore, it has various toxic effects in the kidney and especially in the liver where it may induce cholestasis. The CsA drug-induced cholestasis (DIC) pathway includes important genes involved in the uptake, synthesis, conjugation and secretion of bile acids, which can be verified also in hepatic models in vitro. However, whether changes in CsA-induced cholestasis pathway induced in vitro are persistent thus presenting important biomarkers for repeated dose toxicity, has not yet been investigated. We therefore performed multiple -omics analyses, including whole genome analysis of DNA methylation, gene expression and microRNA expression in primary human hepatocytes (PHH) cultured in sandwich configuration, during and after terminating CsA treatment. For this, cells were exposed to a non-cytotoxic dose of 30 M CsA daily for 3 and 5 days. To investigate the persistence of induced changes upon terminating the CsA exposure of 5 days, a subset of PHH was subjected to a washout period (WO-period) of three days. DNA methylation (using NimbleGen 2.1 deluxe promoter arrays), transcriptomic (using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays) and microRNA (using Agilent Sureprint G3 Unrestricted Human miRNA V16 8 60 K microarrays) analyses were performed on days 3, 5 and 8. Identification of differentially methylated genes (DMGs), differentially expressed genes (DEGs), and differentially expressed microRNAs (DE-miRs) was performed using several R packages. DMGs, DEGs and DE-miRs were found after CsA treatment of PHH for 3 and 5 days as well after the WO-period. Interestingly, 828 persistent DEGs and 6 persistent DE-miRs, but no persistent DMGs, were found after the WO-period. These persistent DEGs and DE-miRs showed concordance for 22 genes (13 genes upregulated in gene expression and downregulated in microRNA expression; 9 genes downregulated in gene expression and upregulated in microRNA expression). Some of the persistent transcriptomic changes as well as DE-miRs could be successfully mapped onto the DIC pathway, while epigenetic changes not. Furthermore, 29 persistent DEGs in vitro showed changes in the same direction as observed in livers from cholestasis patients. None of those 29 DEGs were present in the DIC pathway or cholestasis adverse outcome pathway. We have for the first time demonstrated a persistent impact of gene expression and microRNA expression related to DIC after repeated dose administration of CsA in vitro.
