CRISPR-based gene activation (CRISPRa) is a promising therapeutic approach for therapy, upregulating expression by targeting promoters or enhancers in tissue/cell-type specific manner. Here, we describe an experimental framework that combines highly multiplexed perturbations with single-cell RNA sequencing (sc-RNA-seq) to identify cell-type-specific, CRISPRa-responsive

Abstract Pooled CRISPR screens with single-cell RNA sequencing readout (Perturb-seq) have emerged as a key technique in functional genomics, but they are limited scale by cost and combinatorial complexity. In this study, we modified the design of Perturb-seq incorporating algorithms applied to random, low-dimensional observations. Compressed measures multiple random perturbations per cell or cells droplet computationally decompresses these measurements leveraging sparse structure regulatory circuits. Applied 598 genes immune response bacterial lipopolysaccharide, compressed achieves same accuracy conventional an order magnitude reduction greater power learn genetic interactions. We identified known novel regulators responses uncovered evolutionarily constrained downstream targets enriched for disease heritability, including many missed existing genome-wide association studies. Our framework enables new scales interrogation foundational method genomics.

Schizophrenia is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), although there variation in among individuals. There are indications shared genetic etiology between schizophrenia and CVD, but the nature overlap remains unclear. The aim this study was to fill gap knowledge.Overlapping architectures CVD factors were assessed by analyzing recent genome-wide association (GWAS) results. bivariate causal mixture model (MiXeR) applied estimate number variants conjunctional false discovery rate (conjFDR) approach used pinpoint specific loci.Extensive found factors, particularly smoking initiation (N=8.6K variants) body mass index (BMI) (N=8.1K variants). Several loci detected BMI (N=304), waist-to-hip ratio (N=193), (N=293), systolic (N=294) diastolic (N=259) blood pressure, type 2 diabetes (N=147), lipids (N=471), coronary artery (N=35). had mainly concordant effect directions, opposite directions. overlapping lipids, ratio, diabetes, mixed Functional analyses implicated mapped genes that expressed brain tissue immune cells.These findings indicate a propensity reduced obesity individuals schizophrenia. bidirectional effects other may imply differences liability across subgroups, possibly underlying comorbidity.
