  • Aborting meiosis overcomes hybrid sterility
  • 2020
  • Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Hybrids between species or diverged lineages contain fundamentally novel genetic combinations but an impaired meiosis often makes them evolutionary dead ends. Here, we explored to what extent and how an aborted meiosis followed by a return-to-growth (RTG) promotes recombination across a panel of 20 yeast diploid backgrounds with different genomic structures and levels of sterility. Genome analyses of 284 clones revealed that RTG promoted recombination and generated extensive regions of loss-ofheterozygosity in sterile hybrids with either a defective meiosis or a heavily rearranged karyotype, whereas RTG recombination was reduced by high sequence divergence between parental subgenomes. The RTG recombination preferentially occurred in regions with local sequence homology and in meiotic recombination hotspots. The loss-of-heterozygosity had a profound impact on sexual and asexual fitness, and enabled genetic mapping of phenotypic differences in sterile lineages where linkage or association analyses failed. We propose that RTG gives sterile hybrids access to a natural route for genome recombination and adaptation.

  • Distinctive roles of age, sex, and genetics in shaping transcriptional variation of human immune responses to microbial challenges
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. - 1091-6490. ; 115:3, s. 488-497

    • The contribution of host genetic and nongenetic factors to immunological differences in humans remains largely undefined. Here, we generated bacterial-, fungal-, and viral-induced immune transcriptional profiles in an age- and sex-balanced cohort of 1,000 healthy individuals and searched for the determinants of immune response variation. We found that age and sex affected the transcriptional response of most immune-related genes, with age effects being more stimulus-specific relative to sex effects, which were largely shared across conditions. Although specific cell populations mediated the effects of age and sex on gene expression, including CD8+ T cells for age and CD4+ T cells and monocytes for sex, we detected a direct effect of these intrinsic factors for the majority of immune genes. The mapping of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) revealed that genetic factors had a stronger effect on immune gene regulation than age and sex, yet they affected a smaller number of genes. Importantly, we identified numerous genetic variants that manifested their regulatory effects exclusively on immune stimulation, including a Candida albicans-specific master regulator at the CR1 locus. These response eQTLs were enriched in disease-associated variants, particularly for autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, indicating that differences in disease risk may result from regulatory variants exerting their effects only in the presence of immune stress. Together, this study quantifies the respective effects of age, sex, genetics, and cellular heterogeneity on the interindividual variability of immune responses and constitutes a valuable resource for further exploration in the context of different infection risks or disease outcomes.

  • Standardized Whole-Blood Transcriptional Profiling Enables the Deconvolution of Complex Induced Immune Responses
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Cell Reports. - : Elsevier BV. - 2211-1247. ; 16:10, s. 2777-2791
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Systems approaches for the study of immune signaling pathways have been traditionally based on purified cells or cultured lines. However, in vivo responses involve the coordinated action of multiple cell types, which interact to establish an inflammatory microenvironment. We employed standardized whole-blood stimulation systems to test the hypothesis that responses to Toll-like receptor ligands or whole microbes can be defined by the transcriptional signatures of key cytokines. We found 44 genes, identified using Support Vector Machine learning, that captured the diversity of complex innate immune responses with improved segregation between distinct stimuli. Furthermore, we used donor variability to identify shared inter-cellular pathways and trace cytokine loops involved in gene expression. This provides strategies for dimension reduction of large datasets and deconvolution of innate immune responses applicable for characterizing immunomodulatory molecules. Moreover, we provide an interactive R-Shiny application with healthy donor reference values for induced inflammatory genes.
