• Characterizing the Neurobehavioral Phenotype(s) in MPS III (Pilot Study)

  Mucopolysaccharidosis III (MPSIII) syndrome is characterized by a severe cognitive decline ending in dementia and death. MPSIII is also associated with a range of abnormal and disruptive behaviors that can include, but go well beyond, childhood noncompliance and oppositionality. The purpose of this study is to conduct a cross-sectional investigation to identify the behavioral phenotype and its neural basis in MPSIII. An overall goal of this research is to develop easily administered, sensitive and specific neurobehavioral markers to characterize the behavioral phenotype(s) of MPSIII, track their progression, and to delineate their possible neural substrates. The study looks to develop develop a sensitive and specific behavioral rating of disease progression in MPS III which can be used for clinical outcome studies. The research objectives are: Develop a measure for the use of health professionals to use in tracking MPSIII phenotypes and disease progression. Test our model of MPSIII with objectively recorded behaviors in a well-defined experimental setting. Elucidate the neural bases of MPSIII by correlating behavioral profiles with changes in brain structures through quantitative neuroimaging. Determine the relationship between the loss of cognitive functions and development of behavioral abnormalities in MPSIII. This is an observational pilot study that will enroll 45 individuals with MPS III Type A or B. Those participating in the study will be evaluated during a one-day assessment and chart review.

• Female Infertility: Primary Ovarian Insufficiency

  Premature ovarian failure, or primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a phenotype of diminished or absent ovarian function occurring in 1-2% of reproductive aged women. Most cases occur spontaneously. Evaluation of the gametes in women with POI is difficult and invasive. Practitioners must often rely on indirect biomarkers of ovarian function and oocyte health, making it difficult to identify patients who may benefit from therapies allowing them to achieve pregnancy utilizing their own oocytes. This study will generate exome sequences from POI patients in an effort to elucidate the causes of unexplained POI and to better understand the normal processes of ovarian aging. A better understanding of the genetics of ovarian function may lead to new non-invasive tools for managing women's reproductive health, and direct better use of existing biomarkers in diagnosis, screening and predicting clinical outcomes.

• Characterization of X Chromosome Inactivation Using Integrated Analysis of Whole-Exome and mRNA Sequencing

  This study of DNA and RNA sequencing of 5 parent-offspring trios is a single center study. The goal of this study is to characterize X chromosome inactivation (XCI) ratio in females using phased genomic variations obtained through whole genome or exome sequencing in trios, followed by allele-specific expression analysis of the phased, heterozygous alleles in the mRNA of the female offspring, and to apply this method to clinical diagnosis. The distribution of allele ratios across X obtained from mRNA sequencing allows for the estimation of X inactivation status of inherited X chromosomes, and the parameters of each parental allele distributions in the offspring's mRNA data can be used as determinants for XCI ratio. This approach was used to evaluate the contribution of skewed XCI ratio to phenotypic heterogeneity in an undiagnosed, mild neurological condition.

• University of Texas at Austin (UTA) Histone Modification and Gene Expression Profiling in 9 Primary Glioblastoma Multiforme, 2 Anaplastic Astrocytomas and Two Meningiomas

  The primary goal of this study was to collect and analyze genomic data from primary glioblastoma multiforme tumors. Our collaborators at St David's Medical Center (SDMC) obtained informed consent from patients undergoing surgery to remove a tumor in the brain. After consent was obtained, specimens were removed from the operating suite and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen. Tumors were analyzed if they were a grade III (anaplastic astrocytoma) or grade IV glioma (glioblastoma multiforme). Tumors were transported from SDMC to UT Austin, then weighed and homogenized. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed for 7 proteins in each tumor (histone modifications H3K4me3, H3K4me1, H3K9ac, H3K9me3, H3K27ac, H3K27me3, and the multifunctional insulator binding protein CTCF) and no-antibody input was also sequenced. An aliquot of tumor material was set aside for isolation of total RNA.

• Admixture Mapping of Staphylococcus aureus Bacteremia

  In this study, we used admixture mapping to test the hypothesis that genomic variations with different frequencies in European and African ancestral genomes influence susceptibility to Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB) in a sample of African Americans. A total of 565 adult African Americans were genotyped for admixture mapping. Cases were unique African American adult inpatients with monomicrobial SAB (N=390) and controls are age-matched adult African American inpatients with no current or past S. aureus infection (N=175). After empirical multiplicity adjustment, one region on chromosome 6 (52 SNPs, P = 4.56e-05) in the HLA class II region was found to exhibit a genome-wide statistically significant increase in European ancestry. This region encodes genes involved in HLA-mediated immune response and these results provide additional evidence for genetic variation influencing HLA-mediated immunity, modulating susceptibility to SAB.

• The Ultrasound Study of Tamoxifen

  The Ultrasound Study of Tamoxifen is a 12-month longitudinal study to describe volumetric breast density change over time among women with and without tamoxifen exposure. Women were enrolled at the Karmanos Cancer Institute and Henry Ford Health Systems in Detroit, Michigan between 2011-2014. Enrollment included women prescribed tamoxifen for clinical indication (n=82) and a comparison group of women frequency matched on age, race, and menopausal status (n=165). Whole breast ultrasound tomography (UST) scans were used to measure volume averaged sound speed (m/s) as a surrogate of volumetric breast density. Ultrasound tomography (UST) scans were completed at baseline prior to tamoxifen initiation and were repeated at 1-3 months, 4-6 months, and 12 months after tamoxifen initiation. For the comparison group, UST scans were completed at baseline and 12 months. Questionnaires were completed at each scan.
