• Identification of Genes Involved in Familial Coronary Artery Disease

  Studying families with multiple cases of coronary artery disease (CAD) or with early onset CAD in order to identify new genes involved in CAD in an autosomal dominant manner. After identifying these genes in families that pass on CAD in Mendelian inheritance, we want to pursue their role in the pathogenesis of CAD and their contribution in the general population.

• Gene Expression Analysis in Clonal Evolution of Fanconi Anemia

  We examined hematopoietic progenitor cells derived from iPSCs from patients with Fanconi anemia, including bone marrow failure cells (FANCA-/- HPCs), 'healthy', complemented cells (FANCA-/- cells with a wild-type FANCA cDNA), MDS-like cells (FANCA-/- HPCs with introduced mutations in RUNX1 and other MDS-associated genes), and Fanconi AML-like cells ('FAL'; MDS-like cells expressing FLT3-ITD).

• The Genomic Complexity of Primary Human Prostate Cancer

  Seven primary prostate cancers and their paired normal counterparts were DNA-sequenced on a massively parallel sequencing platform. This approach was taken to investigate the genomes for mutations and genomic alterations that would be undetectable by lower-resolution methods. As result, tumors containing chains of balanced rearrangements that occurred within or adjacent to known cancer genes were discovered.

• Exome Sequencing in an Ancestrally Diverse Autism Cohort

  Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a collection of neurodevelopmental disorders manifested by impaired social communication, repetitive behaviors, and restricted interests. We performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on a total of 754 individuals from 195 families, including 222 probands with ASD, from diverse ancestral backgrounds. We identified potentially pathogenic variants in known and novel ASD or neurodevelopmental disease genes.

• Transcriptome analysis of kidney organoids lacking NPHP1gene

  To explore the molecular mechanisms of cyst formation in kidney organoids lacking NPHP1, we performed RNA-seq transcriptome experiments. Because the potential for cyst formation by suspension culture should already be derived from kidney organoids at the adherent culture, we compared the global gene expression pattern of kidney organoids on day 18 between healthy group and NPHP1-deficient group

• Spatial transcriptome analysis of aging of healthy skin samples

  Previous studies have revealed that skin T cells accumulate and maintain immune responses in the elderly. However, we questioned why these functional T cells fail to recognize and eliminate malignant cells, making elderly skin more prone to developing malignant tumors. To address this question, we examined the overall skin microenvironment in aging using Xenium digital spatial RNA sequencing.

• Analysis of genes related to the oncogenesis, progression or effectiveness of drug therapies of urological tumors .

  To clarify the oncogenesis and the progression mechanism of urological tumors, we continuously collect tumor samples of our patients with high quality. Then we used them to comprehensive analyses such as genome sequencing or epi-genome sequencing. Through these analyses, we aim for elucidating the oncogenesis or for developing newly treatment strategies of each cancer.

• The Adhesion GPCR ADGRL2 Engages Galpha13 to Enable Epidermal Differentiation

  We sought to determine the role of ADGRL2 in epidermal homeostasis. Primary neonatal foreskin keratinocytes were obtained from discarded surgical samples at a California hospital. Samples were anonymous and not selected. ADGRL2, working through GNA13, was found to promote epidermal differentiation through the ADGRL2 intracellular loop 3 (ICL3) loop, using the methods of RNA-seq and Perturb-seq.

• Whole blood transcriptomics analysis in Antiphospholipid syndrome in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

  We analyzed whole-blood RNA-sequencing data from 299 SLE patients (108 SLE-aPL-positive, including 67 SLE-APS; 191 SLE-aPL-negative) and 72 matched healthy controls (HC). Pathway enrichment analysis, unsupervised WGCNA analysis and machine learning were applied to distinguish disease endotypes. Deconvolution analysis was performed to characterize the peripheral blood immune cell profile.

• Khoe-San genome Project (KSGP)

  The Khoe-San Genome Project (KSGP) includes whole genome data generated for 190 study participants from Southern Africa (Namibia and South Africa) representing people speaking a Namibian Khoe-San language (n=150, 12 groups) or regional non-Khoe-San groups (n=40), specifically defined here as Namibian Himba (n=10), South African Southern Bantu (n=12 and representing the Ubuntu Genome Project led by the University of Limpopo) or South African Coloured/European (n=18). Deep whole genome data has been generated for the purposes of cataloguing the extent of regional genetic diversity, creating population specific references and evolutionary trajectories, while creating a population-matched panel of normal (PoN) genetic diversity required for disease associated studies across the region.

• Microarray genotyping of idiopathic hypersomnia patients (11 orexin mutation-positive patients, 85 orexin mutation-negative patients)

  We performed a principal component analysis (PCA) to determine whether population stratification or differences in the genetic background are present between the orexin mutation-positive and -negative idiopathic hypersomnia groups. Genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data in patients with idiopathic hypersomnia (orexin mutation-positive patients and orexin mutation-negative patients) were utilized for the PCA.

• Mechanisms on relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in CMML

  Disease relapse is a major cause of treatment failure after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), and mechanisms on relapse still remain to be elucidated. We experienced a patient with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) who underwent haploidentical HCT from his daughter and developed relapse. To understand the mechanisms on relapse after HCT, we analyze blood samples at HCT and at relapse.
