Abstract

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome reflects complex pathobiological interactions among metabolic disorders, kidney injury, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Stages 2 and 3 represent critical phases of disease progression characterised by high pathological heterogeneity. This study aimed to develop a CVD protein risk score (PRS) for this population and evaluate its incremental predictive value over the PREVENT model. METHODS: This study included 24 017 participants with CKM Stages 2-3 from the UK Biobank. Using 2923 plasma proteins measured via the Olink platform, a PRS was developed in a training set (n = 19 218) using the LASSO method. In the validation set (n = 4799), the incremental predictive performance of this score over the PREVENT model was assessed using Harrell's C-statistic, net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). RESULTS: A risk score comprising 63 proteins was constructed, primarily reflecting inflammation, kidney injury and matrix remodelling. Key proteins included growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 (HAVCR1), matrix metallopeptidase 12 (MMP12) and NT-proBNP. In the validation set, after adjusting for PREVENT risk factors, individuals in the high PRS group had a 2.56-fold higher risk of CVD compared to those in the low score group (HR: 2.56, 95% CI: 1.96-3.37). Integrating the score into the PREVENT model improved the C-statistic by 0.034 (0.672-0.706) and achieved a 10-year NRI of 15.8% (95% CI: 9.5%-20.9%) and an IDI of 2.2% (95% CI: 1.3%-3.3%). CONCLUSION: Combining the PREVENT model with the PRS developed in this study enhances the prediction of future CVD events in the CKM Stages 2-3 population. This approach facilitates the capture of residual risk and supports precision risk stratification and management for this high-risk group.

Global Genomic Surveillance.

Global genomic surveillance has emerged as a foundational pillar of public health in the twenty-first century, enabling real-time tracking of pathogen evolution and informing outbreak response. This chapter examines the strategic architecture of global genomic surveillance, focusing on its application to arboviruses such as chikungunya virus (CHIKV). It explores the integration of genomic data with epidemiological, clinical, and environmental information within a One Health framework, while addressing critical challenges in governance, equity, and interoperability. The discussion covers the entire genomic surveillance workflow, from sample collection and sequencing to bioinformatic analysis and phylogenetic inference, and highlights the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in predictive surveillance. By analyzing global initiatives, operational barriers, and emerging technologies, this chapter underscores the necessity of sustainable, equitable, and interoperable genomic systems to proactively address current and future infectious disease threats.

Systematic Dissection of Key Driver Perturbation Signatures in Single Cells via ECCITE-seq.

CRISPR screens, such as expanded CRISPR-compatible cellular indexing of transcriptomes and epitopes by sequencing (ECCITE-seq), enable the simultaneous measurement of transcriptomes, gRNA identity, and cell-surface protein expression at single-cell resolution to systematically interrogate gene function. This platform provides a powerful and scalable experimental approach for validating disease-associated regulators identified by large-scale association studies and other computational methods, including network-based analyses of multi-omics data. Here, as an example application, we describe an ECCITE-seq framework to characterize the transcriptomic consequences of perturbing multiple neuronal key driver genes associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived neurons. More broadly, by integrating customized pooled gRNA libraries with different CRISPR effectors across multiple cell types, this approach allows for the assessment of the regulatory impact of candidate genes implicated in development and disease processes.

Identification of Genome-Wide Chromatin Structural Aberration in Cancer by Hi-C Analysis.

Aberrant three-dimensional genome organization is a hallmark of cancer, often driving oncogene activation through mechanisms such as enhancer hijacking. High-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) maps these interactions on a genome-wide scale. Unlike earlier dilution-based methods, in situ Hi-C performs proximity ligation within intact nuclei, minimizing random ligation noise and enabling fine-scale structure detection. This chapter describes an optimized in situ Hi-C protocol tailored for cancer cell lines using MboI digestion and biotin-mediated pull-down to generate high-complexity libraries. We further outline a computational workflow that extends beyond standard topological mapping of compartments and topologically associating domains to identify cancer-specific aberrations. Specifically, we focus on detecting chromosomal rearrangements (structural variants) and characterizing the distinct circular topology of extrachromosomal DNA. This integrated experimental and analytical framework provides the necessary tools to dissect the spatial dysregulation underlying tumor evolution.
