Consortium focused on developing computer and physical models of the airway system for patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Developing accurate models will better predict how asthma and COPD develop, since current methods can only assess the severity of disease. They aim to bridge the gaps in clinical management of airways-based disease by providing reliable models that predict disease progression and the response to treatment for each person with asthma or COPD. A data management platform provides a secure and sustainable infrastructure that semantically integrates the clinical, physiological, genetic, and experimental data produced with existing biomedical knowledge from allied consortia and public databases. This resource will be available for analysis and modeling, and will facilitate sharing, collaboration and publication within AirPROM and with the broader community. Currently the AirPROM knowledge portal is only accessible by AirPROM partners.

Consortium focused on identifying the foundational pathways responsible for the aging of the brain, with a focus on Late Onset Alzheimer's disease. They aim to identify the interactions through which the aging phenotype develops in normal and in disease conditions; modeling novel pathways and their evolutionary properties to design experiments that identify druggable targets. As early steps of neurodegenerative disorders are expected to impact synapse function the project will focus in particular on pre- or postsynaptic protein networks. The concept is to identify subsets of pathways with two unique druggable hallmarks, the validation of interactions occurring locally in subregions of neurons and a human and/or primate accelerated evolutionary signature. The consortium will do this through six approaches: * identification of interacting protein networks from recent Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease-Genome Wide Association Studies (LOAD-GWAS) data, * experimental validation of interconnected networks working in subregion of a neuron (such as dendrites and dendritic spines), * inclusion of these experimentally validated networks in larger networks obtained from available databases to extend possible protein interactions, * identification of human and/or primate positive selection either in coding or in regulatory gene sequences, * manipulation of these human and/or primate accelerated evolutionary interacting proteins in human neurons derived from induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) * modeling predictions in drosophila and novel mouse transgenic models * validation of new druggable targets and markers as a proof-of-concept towards the prevention and cure of aging cognitive defects. The scientists will share results and know-how on Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease-Genome Wide Association Studies (LOAD-GWAS) gene discovery, comparative functional genomics in mouse and drosophila models, in mouse transgenic approaches, research on human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) and their differentiation in vitro and modeling pathways with emphasis on comparative and evolutionary aspects. The four European small to medium size enterprises (SMEs) involved will bring their complementary expertise and will ensure translation of project results to clinical application.

An R package designed to simulate RNA sequencing experiments with differential transcript expression. Given a set of annotated transcripts, it will simulate the steps of an RNA-seq experiment (fragmentation, reverse-complementing, and sequencing) and produce files containing simulated RNA-seq reads. Simulated reads can be analyzed using a choice of downstream analysis tools. Polyester has a built-in wrapper function to simulate a case/control experiment with differential transcript expression and biological replicates. Users are able to set the levels of differential expression at transcripts of their choosing. This means they know which transcripts are differentially expressed in the simulated dataset, so accuracy of statistical methods for differential expression detection can be analyzed. Polyester offers several unique features: * Built-in functionality to simulate differential expression at the transcript level * Ability to explicitly set differential expression signal strength * Simulation of small datasets, since large RNA-seq datasets can require lots of time and computing resources to analyze * Generation of raw RNA-seq reads, as opposed to alignments or transcript-level abundance estimates * Transparency/open-source code

Project that aims to develop new treatment strategies based on knowledge of cellular dysfunction in diabetes. They will perform a detailed organelle diagnosis based on both focused and systems biology approaches, which will provide the scientific rationale for the design of specific interventions to boost the capacity of beta cells and brown adipocytes to regain homeostatic control. They propose that only by understanding the complex molecular mechanisms triggering cellular dysfunction in diabetes, and by integrating this knowledge at the systems level, will it be possible to develop interventional therapies that protect and restore beta cell and (Brown adipose tissue) BAT function. The ultimate goal is to offer individual therapeutic choices based on both genetic information and organelle diagnosis.

Consortium to generate complete catalogs of somatic mutations in 500 breast cancers, of the ER+ve HER2- subclass, under the International Cancer Genome Consortium model by high coverage, shotgun genome sequencing of both tumor and normal DNA. The strategy is to collect, store, review, quality control and extract DNA and RNA from breast cancer and normal tissues from 500 ER+, HER2- breast cancer cases which will be subjected to a coordinated series of genomic analyses including whole genome shotgun sequencing, genome-wide copy number analysis, mRNA expression analysis, miRNA expression analysis and genome-wide methylation analysis. A comprehensive catalogue of somatic mutations will be generated from each cancer. Somatic mutation catalogues from the 500 cancers will be analysed and integrated with expression and methylation data to identify novel cancer genes, characterize subverted biological pathways that are operative, describe patterns of somatic mutation and explore early translational applications of personalized somatic genomic data for patients with ER+, HER2- breast cancer. The results will impact the understanding of the causes and biology of breast cancer and will lead to major advances in detection, prevention and treatment in one of the most common diseases and causes of death in the developed world. The Consortium has completed a number of investigative exercises into the experimental protocols and technological practices relating to whole genome sequencing, epigenetics and transcriptomics including: * Completion of extensive testing of current RNA-seq protocol. * Designed and implemented a new, improved RNA-seq protocol which utilizes RNA samples regardless of their RNA Integrity Number. * Completed pilot testing of the Infinium 450k array and associated bi-sulfite sequencing. * Refined the whole genome sequencing library production protocols to produce more robust libraries. * Improved the primary variant-calling algorithms (for substitutions, insertions / deletions and rearrangements) * Developed new analytical algorithms to explore the resulting high-quality variants. As such, variant calling of whole genome sequencing data and secondary downstream analysis can begin in earnest in a trackable and automated fashion.

Consortium that brings together Europe's top industrial and academic experts to develop new tests that will help researchers detect potential liver toxicity issues much earlier in drug development, saving many patients from the trauma of liver failure. The team aims to deepen the understanding of the science behind drug-induced liver injury, and use that knowledge to overcome the many drawbacks of the tests currently used. A major focus will be on a systematic and evidence-based evaluation of both currently available and new laboratory test systems, including cultures of liver cells in one-dimensional and three dimensional configurations. The project will also develop models that take into account the natural differences between patients. This is important because factors such as certain genes, the liver's immune response, and viral infections have all been associated with an increased risk of DILI. The project will seek to address the current lack of human liver cells available to researchers by using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated from patients who are particularly sensitive to DILI. Another strand of the project will develop computer models to unravel the complex, often inter-related mechanisms behind DILI. Finally, the team will assess how accurate the results of laboratory tests are at predicting actual outcomes in patients.
