Identifying ancestry-specific molecular profiles of late-onset Alzheimer's Disease (LOAD) in brain tissue is crucial to understand novel mechanisms and develop effective interventions non-European, high-risk populations. We performed gene differential expression (DE) consensus network-based analyses RNA-sequencing data postmortem from 39 Caribbean Hispanics (CH). To identify ancestry-concordant -discordant profiles, we compared our results those two independent non-Hispanic White (NHW) samples (n = 731). In CH, identified 2802 significant DE genes, including several LOAD known-loci. effects were highly concordant across ethnicities, with 373 genes transcriptome-wide all three cohorts. Cross-ancestry meta-analysis found NPNT be the top gene. replicated over 82% meta-analyses genome-wide signals single-nucleus RNA-seq (including known-genes SORL1, FBXL7, CLU, ABCA7). Increasing representation genetic studies will allow for deeper understanding improving precision treatment options understudied groups.

High-throughput gene expression profiling measures individual across conditions. However, genes are regulated in complex networks, not as entities, limiting the interpretability of data. Machine learning models that incorporate prior biological knowledge a powerful tool to extract meaningful biology from Pathway-level information extractor (PLIER) is an unsupervised machine method defines pathways by leveraging vast amount published transcriptomic PLIER converts data into known pathway sets, termed latent variables (LVs), substantially reduce dimensionality and improve interpretability.

Patients with asthma experience elevated rates of mental illness. However, the molecular links underlying such lung-brain crosstalk remain ambiguous. Hypothalamic dysfunction is observed in many psychiatric disorders, particularly those an inflammatory component due to hypothalamic regions being unprotected by blood-brain barrier. To gain a better insight into neuropsychiatric sequelae, this study investigated gene expression differences hypothalamus following lung inflammation (asthma) induction mice, using RNA transcriptome profiling. BALB/c mice were challenged either bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS, E. coli) or ovalbumin (OVA) allergens saline control (n = 7 per group), and was confirmed via histological examination postmortem tissue. The majority micro-dissected, total extracted for sequencing. Differential analysis identified 31 statistically significant single genes (false discovery rate FDR5%) altered LPS exposure compared controls; however, none significantly changed OVA treatment, suggesting milder response. When sets examined, 48 upregulated 8 downregulated both groups relative controls. REACTOME enrichment suggests these are involved signal transduction metabolism, immune response neuroplasticity. Interestingly, we five directly associated neurotransmitter signaling. Intriguingly, can influence health or/neuroinflammation humans. These findings help characterize between asthma-induced brain may assist identifying relevant pathways therapeutic targets future intervention.
