• Cardiovascular disease biomarkers derived from circulating cell-free DNA methylation

  Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains a major cause of worldwide mortality. The syndrome occurs when blood flow to the heart muscle is decreased or blocked, causing muscle tissues to die or malfunction. There are three main types of ACS: Non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction, ST-elevation myocardial infarction, and unstable angina. The treatment depends on the type of ACS, and this is decided by a combination of clinical findings, such as electrocardiogram and plasma biomarkers. Circulating cell-free DNA (ccfDNA) is proposed as an additional marker for ACS since the damaged tissues can release DNA to the bloodstream. We used ccfDNA methylation profiles for differentiating between the ACS types and provided computational tools to repeat similar analysis for other diseases. We leveraged cell type specificity of DNA methylation to deconvolute the ccfDNA cell types of origin and to find methylation-based biomarkers that stratify patients. We identified hundreds of methylation markers associated with ACS types and validated them in an independent cohort. Many such markers were associated with genes involved in cardiovascular conditions and inflammation. ccfDNA methylation showed promise as a non-invasive diagnostic for acute coronary events. These methods are not limited to acute events, and may be used for chronic cardiovascular diseases as well.

• Assessment of de novo copy number variations in Italian patients with schizophrenia.

  We investigated de novo CNVs in the whole genomic DNA of schizophrenia patients and their parents and, specifically, in putative enhancer motifs.Study participants were part of a wider multicenter study, involving an Italian cohort of schizophrenia patients recruited by members of INRP - Italian Network for Research on Psychoses.Whole genomic DNA obtained from 46 family trios of schizophrenia probands was analyzed using the Enhancer Chip, a customized array CGH developed using the Agilent SurePrint G3 8X60K format, which is able to investigate the whole genome with a 300Kb resolution, specific disease loci at a tenfold higher resolution, and that was highly enriched in probes in more than 1.250 enhancer elements selected from the Vista Enhancer Browser (PLoS One. 2012;7(12):e52264).

• Metabolomic and microbiome profiling reveals personalized risk factors for coronary artery disease

  A comprehensive clinical and multi-omic profiling for 199 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), an acute subcategory of CAD, that we recruited in two major Israeli hospitals. We demonstrate that ACS has distinct serum metabolome and gut microbial signatures, as compared to a control cohort. Metabolic aberrations linked with microbiome and diet show a gradual trend with significant metabolite deviations in control participants with metabolic impairment suggesting their involvement in earlier dysmetabolic phases preceding clinically overt CAD.

• Hyperdiploid Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia RNA-Seq

  Few genetic drivers of children with hyperdiploid precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have been identified to date. In an effort to detect novel genomic rearrangements that could be promoting leukemogenesis in this subset of patients, we sequenced ribosomal RNA-depleted transcriptomes isolated from 5 hyperdiploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia samples. In addition to looking for novel genomic rearrangements, we also sought to identify transcripts that could be created as a result of a novel posttranscriptional process. Surprisingly, we identified transcripts created as the result of exon circularization. The results of our studies are present in the paper "Circular RNAs Are the Predominant Transcript Isoform from Hundreds of Human Genes in Diverse Cell Types" published in PLoS ONE (PMID: 22319583).

• Novel optineurin frameshift insertion causing familial frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism without amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

  Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) is a common cause of Young Onset Dementia and has diverse clinical manifestations involving behaviour, executive function, language and motor function, including parkinsonism. Up to 50% of FTD patients report a positive family history, supporting a strong genetic basis, particularly in cases with both FTD and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD-ALS). Mutations in three genes are associated with the majority of familial FTD (fFTD) cases - microtubule associated protein tau gene (MAPT), progranulin gene (PGRN), and hexanucleotide repeat expansions in chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72), whilst mutations in other genes such as optineurin (OPTN) have rarely been reported. Mutations in OPTN have been reported mostly in familial and sporadic cases of ALS, or in rare cases of FTD-ALS, but not in association with pure or predominant FTD and/or parkinsonian phenotype. Here, we report for the first time, a family from the Philippines with 4 affected members harbouring the same OPTN frameshift insertion, presenting with FTD-related phenotypes, including one sibling with predominant parkinsonism resembling corticobasal syndrome. Notably, none of the affected members showed any evidence of motor neuron disease or ALS at the time of writing, both clinically and on electrophysiological testing, expanding the phenotypic spectrum of OPTN mutations. Close follow-up of mutation carriers for the development of new clinical features and wider investigation of additional family members with further genetic analyses will be conducted to investigate the possibility of other genetic modifiers in this family which could explain phenotypic heterogeneity.
