项目摘要
ABSTRACT
Globally, dramatic changes in our environments are leading to increases in non-communicable diseases that are
determined by the complex interplay between our genetics and environment. Knowing why and how some
individuals are more sensitive than others to environmental perturbations remains a major gap in our
understanding of traits for which the genetic effects are environmentally dependent. To address this gap, we
have partnered with a subsistence-level community in northwest Kenya, the Turkana, who very recently initiated
a transition from a traditional lifestyle to an urban one and are in parallel showing increases in cardiometabolic
disorders. I propose to study molecular responses to this drastic lifestyle change in the context of inflammatory
mechanisms that confer increased risk for metabolic diseases. First, I will identify disruptions in coordinated
biological processes following the shift toward a Western lifestyle, through the detection of metabolic gene
network disturbances in PBMCs. Next I will identify genomic regulatory (ATAC-seq) and transcriptional (RNA-
seq) responses to in vitro pro-inflammatory stimulation in monocytes, wherein differential responses across the
lifestyle gradient in the Turkana will inform how chronic obesogenic signaling (in an urban environment) alters
acute inflammatory processes that typically occur in response to nutritional status. I will then identify the genetic
contribution to variation in monocyte pro-inflammatory responses and ask to what degree these genetic effects
are modulated by an individual’s lifestyle (i.e. genotype-by-environment interaction). Finally, I will ask to what
degree these loci explain inter-individual differences in health-related biomarkers. Because of the Turkana’s
unique history and current migration patterns, they are uniquely poised to study the health impact of rapid
environmental shift, as well as the degree to which genotype predisposes individuals toward vulnerability or
resilience in the face of environmental challenges (i.e. a western lifestyle). Addressing these important questions
in a largely understudied population of African ancestry has important implications toward global health and
precision medicine in African-Americans. Taken together, these Aims align with the NIH objectives, as they
involve understanding individual susceptibility to disease and risk across populations; and understanding the
pathobiology of the Western environment on our cardiometabolic health. My fellowship training plan will focus
on improving my quantitative skills, as I aim to build a research program focused on understanding the
contribution of genotype-by-environment interactions to cardiometabolic risk. This development will be enabled
by the mentorship from Dr. Julien Ayroles, who is an expert in systems and quantitative genetics and recently
initiated the Turkana Health and Genomics project at the core of this application. My interactions with the Ayroles
group and collaborations with the diverse faculty at the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics at
Princeton will support the training and academic network necessary to succeed in my goal of becoming an
independent investigator.
抽象的
在全球范围内,环境的巨大变化正在导致非传染性疾病的增加
由我们的遗传和环境之间复杂的相互作用决定。知道为什么以及如何一些
个人对环境扰动比其他人更敏感仍然是我们的一个主要差距
了解遗传效应依赖于环境的性状。为了解决这一差距,我们
与肯尼亚西北部的图尔卡纳 (Turkana) 社区合作,该社区最近发起了
从传统生活方式向城市生活方式的转变,同时显示出心脏代谢的增加
失调。我建议研究在炎症背景下对这种生活方式的剧烈改变的分子反应
增加代谢疾病风险的机制。首先,我将确定协调中的干扰
通过检测代谢基因,向西方生活方式转变后的生物过程
PBMC 中的网络干扰。接下来我将确定基因组调控(ATAC-seq)和转录(RNA-
seq)对单核细胞体外促炎刺激的反应,其中跨
图尔卡纳的生活方式梯度将揭示慢性肥胖信号(在城市环境中)如何改变
通常因营养状况而发生的急性炎症过程。然后我会鉴定基因
对单核细胞促炎症反应变化的贡献,并询问这些遗传效应的程度
受个人生活方式的调节(即基因型与环境的相互作用)。最后我会问什么
这些位点在一定程度上解释了健康相关生物标志物的个体间差异。因为图尔卡纳
由于独特的历史和当前的迁徙模式,他们具有独特的能力来研究快速迁移对健康的影响
环境变化,以及基因型使个体易受脆弱性或影响的程度
面对环境挑战的复原力(即西方生活方式)。解决这些重要问题
在很大程度上未被充分研究的非洲血统人群中,对全球健康和健康具有重要影响
非裔美国人的精准医疗。总的来说,这些目标与 NIH 的目标是一致的,因为它们
涉及了解不同人群对疾病和风险的个体易感性;并了解
西方环境对我们心脏代谢健康的病理生物学。我的奖学金培训计划将重点
提高我的定量技能,因为我的目标是建立一个专注于理解
基因型与环境相互作用对心脏代谢风险的贡献。此开发将启用
