• Characterization of the molecular signature of human monocytes in aging and myelodysplastic syndrome

  Deep immunophenotypic profiling of peripheral blood immune cells from young and older control subjects as well as patients with MDS was initially performed, using mass cytometry to identify monocyte subpopulations. Abundance of monocyte subpopulations separated the samples from patients with MDS from elderly control subjects was identified. Therefore, targeted immunophenotyping of monocytes was also performed with flow cytometry and RNA sequencing from isolated CD14+ peripheral blood longitudinally in 26 subjects, six young healthy individuals, nine older healthy individuals and eleven patients with MDS.

• HipSci RNA sequencing for embryonic stem cell control lines

  The HipSci project brings together diverse constituents in genomics, proteomics, cell biology and clinical genetics to create a UK national iPS cell resource and use it to carry out cellular genetic studies. In this sub-study we perform RNA sequencing on commercially available embryonic stem cell lines as control samples against which to compare HipSci's iPS cell lines.

• RNA-seq analysis of megakaryocytes and granulocytes in Quebec platelet disorder

  Quebec Platelet disorder (QPD) is a unique bleeding disorder that markedly increases urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) in megakaryocytes and platelets but not in plasma or urine. The cause is tandem duplication of a 77 kb region of chromosome 10 containing PLAU and C10orf55. Blood cells and cultured megakaryocytes from donors (7 QPD, 10 control subjects) were prepared for total and allele-specific, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, immunoassays, Western blots and RNA-seq. Transcriptomes for cultured megakaryocytes and peripheral blood granulocytes from 4 control and 3 QPD individuals were analyzed using mRNA-seq.

• RNA-Seq of vocal fold fibroblasts in Reinke’s edema and control subjects

  The voice disorder Reinke’s edema (RE) is a smoking- and voice-abuse associated benign lesion of the vocal folds, defined by an edema of the Reinke space, accompanied with pathological microvasculature changes and immune cell infiltration. Vocal fold fibroblasts (VFF) are the main cell type of the lamina propria and play a key role in the disease progression. Current therapy is restricted to symptomatic treatment. Hence, there is an urgent need for a better understanding of the molecular causes of the disease. In the present study, we investigated differential expression profiles of RE and control VFF by means of RNA sequencing. In addition, fast gene set enrichment analysis (FGSEA) was performed in order to obtain involved biological processes, mRNA and protein levels of targets of interest were further evaluated. We identified 74 differentially regulated genes in total, 19 of which were upregulated and 55 downregulated. Differential expression analysis and FGSEA revealed upregulated genes and pathways involved in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, inflammation and fibrosis. Downregulated genes and pathways were involved in ECM degradation, cell cycle control and proliferation. The current study addressed for the first time a direct comparison of VFF from RE to control and evaluated immediate functional consequences.
