Genetic variation in mice: modeling disease, pharmacogenetics, and basic biology Tim Wiltshire
School of Pharmacy University of North Carolina Chapel Hill
What do we know about gene function? How do we efficiently annotate the function of all the genes in the mammalian genome? Goal: “Genome-wide functional genomics”
TP53 TNF APOE MTHFR HLA-DRB1 IL6 ACE TGFB1 EGFR VEGFA
Fraction of all Citations Accounted for by Highly-Cited Genes
31672 genes (78%) have five or fewer linked references 19709 genes (49%) have zero linked references 40234 entries in Entrez Gene
How should we use the genetic variation in mice as a model for Annotating gene function and discovery in disease status, pharmacogenetics, and basic biology? Traditional genetics – F2 crosses, recombinant inbred strains (RI), knockouts, transgenics.
New RI initiatives - A new set of comprehensive RI strains
Inbred strains – genetic variation of the inbred strains, haplotype mapping.
Outbred strains – most closely model human populations
Genetic diversity through mating F2 Two parental strains are crossed to produce F1 generation. Brother-sister matings of F1 mice produce F2 generation, a random shuffling of parental strains genomes. Requires a very large set of mice (~200), each genetically unique Utility of genotype data, which is a huge undertaking for such a large set, is limited to the life of the mouse RI Two parental strains are crossed to produce F1 generation. Brother-sister matings are carried out for 20 generations until genomic pattern is fixed. Each mouse from a given RI line is genetically identical Genotyping only has to be done once and can be applied to any phenotype Number of lines and strain crosses available from an RI cross is limited, decreasing the possible resolution in mapping the trait and the number of traits that can be examined
Both methods require months or years to define candidate region

Candidate lung tumor susceptibility genes identified through whole-genome association analyses in inbred mice. Liu et.al. Nature Genetics 38, 888 - 895 (2006)
Whole-genome association analysis of urethane-induced lung adenoma incidence in laboratory inbred mice. The scatter plots were drawn for -log(P) against SNP positions in the chromosomes. The two horizontal gray lines indicate the significance levels of -log(P) = 4.8 and -log(P) = 6.2. The arrows indicate the genomic regions with -log(P) > 4.8. These refined genomic regions with significant associations are within 10 Mb of one or more QTLs (such as Sluc18, Pas1, Sluc23 and Pas10, and Sluc26) for chemically induced lung cancer detected by previous linkage studies.

In Silico Pharmacogenetics: Warfarin Metabolism Guo et al. Nat Biotechnol. 2006 May; 24(5): 531–536.
The log-transformation of the measured combined amount of 7-hydroxywarfarin (7-OH) and its glucuronidated metabolite (M8) as a % of the total amount of drug and metabolites for each of 13 inbred strains.
Haplotype-based genetic analysis of warfarin metabolites. A representative set of haplotype blocks having the highest correlation with this data set. For each predicted block, the chromosomal location, number of SNPs within a block, its gene symbol and an indicator of gene expression in liver are shown. The haplotype for each strain is represented by a colored block, and is presented in the same order as the phenotypic data in the top panel. The calculated p-value measures the probability that strain groupings within an individual block would have the same degree of association with the phenotypic data by random chance. In the gene expression column, a green square indicates the gene is expressed in liver tissue, while a gray square indicates that it is unknown.

Fig. 1. Serum ALT measured in human volunteers taking daily oral doses of APAP (4g/day). (A) Lines represent per subject daily serum ALT (U/L) values 14 days prior to clinic admission and throughout the 14-day duration of the study. Subjects were considered responders if peak serum ALT reached greater than 1.5-fold higher than the average of their baseline values (average of values obtained for days -14 and 1-3; N = 22). ALT elevations were observed following the start of treatment on day 4 and continued to fall beyond treatment cessation on day 11. (B) Daily ALT (U/L) values of non-responder volunteers receiving APAP treatment were not significantly different from those receiving placebo (N = 9). (C) The peak ALT fold change (over baseline) reached over the course of treatment per subject number is plotted for both non-responder (white bars) and responder (black bars) individuals. Horizontal line represents a 1.5-fold increase over the subject’s pretreatment baseline. Genome Research 2009
(A) Representative APAP-treated mice of strains CAST/EiJ, SM/J, C57BL/6J, DBA/2J, and B6C3F1/J showing varying levels of centrilobular necrosis. (B) A percent necrosis score (mean ± S.E.) of H&E stained liver sections. (D) Serum ALT levels (mean ± S.E.) in mice sacrificed 24 hours after dosing
Whole-genome association analysis and targeted sequencing determined that polymorphisms in Ly86, Cd44, Cd59a, and Capn8 correlate strongly with liver injury. Variation in the orthologous human gene, CD44, is associated with susceptibility to acetaminophen in two independent cohorts.

Strain specific phenotypic differences
Summary Inbred strains can provide genetic variation that models human variation. The use of a mouse model allows for control of environmental variation. All phenotypes measured show variability across inbred mouse strains. Whole organism studies can be used to model disease status. Cellular genetics can be used for cell function, toxicogenomics, pharmacogenetics.
Future directions Improve the haplotype map across the inbred strains Screening drugs and toxicants in cell-based assays
