Chromatin Capture Identifies SCARB1-LAG3 Proinflammatory Cardiovascular Disease Gene Networks [4C-Seq]
Purpose: Isolating chromatin interactions from a specific viewpoint, we utilized Next-generation sequencing (NGS) to profile specific chromatin interaction differences between two populations, a selected carrier (C) alele of SNP (rs10846744) associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and a selected non-carrier (G) allele. Methods: Chromatin was isolated from two subjects, one homozygous for the rs10846744 reference (G) allele and one homozygous for the rs10846744 risk (C) allele, processed for 4C-Seq (van de Werken et al., 2012). Results: 4C-ker (Raviram et al, 2016) analyzed the chromatin interaction data from the specific viewpoint. The results were visualized using the Washington University EpiGenome Browser (Zhou and Wang, 2013). Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of significant changes in gene expression by an altered chromatin interaction network from SCARB1 to NR2F2 and LAG3, contributing to CAD proinflammatory gene networks. Overall design: Reference (GG) cells were compared to Risk (CC) cells from the SCARB1 rs10846744 (1A) and LAG3 (2A) viewpoints, in duplicates
