Mechanisms of immune dysregulation leading to inflammatory bowel disease
Horáčková, Klára ; Froňková, Eva (advisor) ; Filipp, Dominik (referee)
Bc. Klára Horáčková DIPLOMA THESIS Mechanisms of immune dysregulation leading to inflammatory bowel disease Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a complex disorder characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Classical IBD is a multifactorial disease with adulthood or later-childhood onset. However, children with very early onset IBD (VEO-IBD, before 6 years of age) are a specific cohort, whose pathology can be caused by severe genetic defects in genes connected to immune homeostasis in the gut. We aimed to identify the causal genetic variants in 20 pediatric patients diagnosed with IBD (age of onset from 3 to 154 months) using whole exome sequencing (WES). We evaluated several bioinformatical approaches for WES data analysis. This included a comparison of two methods of variant identification using VarScan2 or GATK4-based tools. Furthermore, we compared 4 gene lists ("virtual panels") for variant filtering, one of which was compiled purposefully for this thesis. We identified and validated via segregation analysis 5 causal variants in 4 genes (DUOX2 compound heterozygote, FOXP3, NLRP3 and NOD2) accounting for 20 % of the cohort. NOD2 (p.A755V) variant has already been reported in IBD cases, while DUOX2 (p.R1216W + p.A1131T), FOXP3 (p.H400L) and NLRP3 (p.V200M) were newly...
