• Postmortem Analysis of the Caudate Nucleus in Schizophrenia

  This postmortem study examines genomic signatures (gene, transcript, exon, and exon-exon junction) in the caudate nucleus of individuals with or without psychiatric illnesses. We characterized genetic and epigenetic changes across the lifespan of 443 donor subjects, including 245 individuals without psychiatric illness, 154 individuals with schizophrenia, and 44 individuals with bipolar disorder. The subjects are 210 from African and 233 from European ancestries. Combining expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis, Mendelian randomization with the latest schizophrenia genome-wide association study (GWAS), transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) and differential expression analysis, we identified many genes associated with schizophrenia risk, including potentially the dopamine D2 receptor short isoform. We found that antipsychotic medication has an extensive influence on caudate gene expression. We constructed caudate nucleus gene expression networks that highlight interactions involving schizophrenia risk. These analyses provide a resource for the study of schizophrenia and insights into risk mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. There are 120 subjects in this study which are also present in the study phs000417.

• Family Investigation of Nephropathy and Diabetes (FIND) Study

  The Family Investigation of Nephropathy and Diabetes (FIND) is a multicenter study designed to identify genetic determinants of diabetic kidney disease. Study subjects were recruited from eleven centers and in many ethnic groups throughout the United States. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted with the Affymetrix 6.0 chip. Subjects (index cases) with diabetes and kidney disease were initially recruited, and their parents and siblings were invited to participate. Genetic material from these participants was used to genotype markers throughout the genome. For association-based testing, a case-control design was implemented with study subjects selected primarily from the index cases of the families. Unrelated controls were selected from families where a case was not already selected. Several study sites also contributed non-FIND subjects, both cases and controls (consent forms for the release of FIND and non-FIND subjects/samples are included in this dbGaP release). Cases were selected if they met study criteria for diabetic nephropathy or met inclusion criteria based on elevated serum creatinine levels and abnormal urine protein excretion. Similarly, controls were long-term diabetics with otherwise normal kidney function. See inclusion/exclusion criteria section for a detailed description for the FIND study as a whole and this GWAS. The goal of the FIND study is to identify genes that influence susceptibility to diabetic kidney disease, leading to a better understanding of how kidney disease develops. In the long run, this may lead to improved treatment and prevention of diabetic kidney disease.

• Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG ATCC (LGG) as an immune adjuvant for influenza vaccination in the elderly

  Double blind Randomized Controlled trial to evaluate the safety of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG ATCC 53103 (LGG) vs placebo in elderly receiving Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (TIV) (study 1) or Double blind Randomized Controlled trial to evaluate the safety of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG ATCC 53103 (LGG) vs. placebo in elderly subjects receiving Live Attenuated Influenza vaccine (LAIV) (study 2). Healthy elderly volunteers, ages 65-80 were enrolled as outpatients in two clinical studies in which they received the TIV vaccine (study 1, n=28) or the LAIV vaccine (study 2, n=30). In each of the 2 studies, subjects were randomized to receive either LGG capsules containing 1 x 1010 CFU, twice daily for 28 days, or matching placebo capsules twice daily for the same period of time. The study subjects completed a daily diary, telephone calls, and study visits at the Massachusetts General Hospital Clinical Research Centers at baseline, days 21, 28 and 56 and month 5 for the TIV study and baseline, days 21, 28, and 56 for the LAIV study. During each visit, the subject diary, interim history, potential adverse effects and concomitant medications were reviewed and vital signs and a physical examination were performed. Routine blood tests were obtained to monitor for safety during visits and nasopharyngeal and stool samples were collected for microbiome analysis. Volunteers in both studies who were interested in participating in the effect of LGG probiotic on the Human whole Blood Transcriptome substudy also had blood drawn for DNA and RNA extraction, after signing the substudy consent form. The main objectives of the TIV and LAIV studies were to assess the safety and tolerability of 2 x 1010 CFU LGG administered orally to elderly subjects for 28 days after administration of TIV (study 1) or LAIV (study 2). Secondary objectives were to evaluate the richness and microbial diversity in nasopharyngeal and stool specimens using pyrosequencing, and to compare cytokine production in response to bacterial stimulation by following the kinetics of mRNA expression of pro and anti-inflammatory genes and different signaling pathways, in relation to changes in stool Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus spp. The studies were reviewed and approved by the Partners Human Research Committee (TIV study IRB # 2010p001694 and LAIV study IRB # 2011p002849) and were registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT01368029 and NCT01545349, respectively).
