• Gynecology and Lubricant Effects (GALE) Study

  The GALE study is a longitudinal study of the association between lubricant use and the vaginal microbiota in women receiving transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) at the Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine Department at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Participants undergo a clinical exam at enrollment (at least 5 days prior to TVUS) and self-collect daily, mid-vaginal samples in the week leading up to TVUS, including immediately before the procedure. At the TVUS appointment, the sonographer applies a single-use packet of Glide lubricating jelly to the probe. The product was selected for study as it was currently being used in the TVUS clinic at the University of Maryland Medical Center and is a clinical lubricant which is very similar in composition to many sex lubricants. Participants collect samples the evening after TVUS and present for a follow-up clinical exam within a week of TVUS. Participants continue to sample twice weekly for an additional 8 weeks (returning completed kits each week), complete daily health and behavior diaries, and attend one final clinical exam at week 10. The clinician evaluates participants for bacterial vaginosis (BV) at each clinical visit using Amsel's criteria, and also looks for signs of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) and trichomonas using a wet mount.

• NHLBI TOPMed - NHGRI CCDG: Pakistan Risk of Myocardial Infarction Study (PROMIS)

  The Pakistan Risk of Myocardial Infarction (PROMIS) study is a retrospective multicenter case-control cohort study of individuals with and without coronary heart disease from Pakistan. Multiple biological samples have been collected from the participants including DNA, plasma, serum, and whole blood. The goal of the study is to recruit 20,000 cases and 20,000 controls of Pakistani descent. Eligible cases were individuals aged 30-80 who presented to the emergency department of a participating recruitment center in Pakistan with clinical symptoms consistent with a myocardial infarction (MI), ECG changes consistent with MI, elevated troponin levels consistent with MI, and no prior history of cardiovascular disease. Controls were individuals of Pakistani descent who did not have a self-reported history of cardiovascular disease. This site hosts data generated via NHLBI's TOPMed program and NHGRI's Common Disease Genomics (CCDG) program. Both whole exome and whole genome data are presented here, namely 4,211 whole genomes from TOPMed, 3,859 whole genomes from NHLBI supplemental funds, 1,136 whole genomes and 16,855 whole exomes from CCDG. Please note that there is additional legacy whole exome data (7,298 subjects) also generated via NHGRI funds as part of the MIGen Exome Sequencing project that can be found in dbGaP at phs000917.

• A Prospective Study of Lifestyle, the Gut Microbiome, and Diverticulitis

  By leveraging a large-scale collection of stool specimens (Micro-N) within the Nurses' Health Study II, we performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing and untargeted metabolomics profiling among 121 case women with a diagnosis of diverticulitis requiring antibiotics or hospitalization, with each matched to a control woman without diverticulitis during the same time period accounting for age, race, and month of stool collection (total N=242). We found microbiome and metabolomic profiles differed in diverticulitis cases compared to controls. Data deposited include metagenomic sequencing data (after removing the human sequences) and metabolomics data.

• A Comprehensive Genomic Study of Pediatric Malignancy

  Malignancy remains the leading cause of disease-related death in children. DNA sequencing studies have shown a paucity of actionable genomic alterations and a low mutation burden across pediatric cancers at diagnosis. We perform a comprehensive genomic and epigenomic analysis of pediatric tumor and normal tissues using next-generation sequencing to identify molecular fingerprints and targets for diagnosis, prognosis, and development of novel therapeutic methods. This study also represents one of the largest of its type to date and provides a rich genomic dataset for the pediatric cancer research community.

• The Study of Somatic LINE1 Activity in Cancers

  This study focuses exclusively on the quantification of LINE1 mobilization. We analyzed a recent whole genome sequencing data release from multiple Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) sub-projects. In addition to the somatic LINE1 insertions (present in tumor and having no support in the matched normal) there are "pseudo-germline" non-reference LINE1 elements identified in tumor tissue and having some support in the matched normal. This dataset reports such "pseudo-germline" LINE1 retrotranspositions. Individual level data for TCGA can be accessed by requesting access to phs000178.

• Mesothelioma Genomics Study - WGS tumour/normal pairs

  Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an incurable and aggressive tumour that occurs principally in the pleura as a consequence of inhaling asbestos fibres. There are >15,000 cases per annum worldwide, the incidence is increasing and Australia has one of the world's highest incidence rates. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy (or their combinations) all feature in the clinical management but do not impact significantly on overall survival. This study uses whole genome sequencing (WGS) with the aim of identifying mesothelioma-related genomic alterations and potentially identifying novel treatment strategies.

• Genome-wide association study of cervical cancer in East Asian populations

  The development of cervical cancer is initiated by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and involves both viral and host genetic factors. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of cervical cancer have identified associations in the HLA locus and two loci outside HLA, but the principal genes that control infection and pathogenesis have not been identified. In the present study, we performed GWAS of cervical cancer in East Asian populations, involving 2609 cases and 4712 controls in the discovery stage, 1461 cases and 3295 controls in the follow-up stage.

• Queensland Melanoma Genomic Biomarker Study

  There is a clinical need to identify melanoma patients not likely to benefit from current targeted and immuno-therapy and identify biomarkers that can predict patient outcome. Genomic biomarkers are not yet part of staging but show promising results. The aim of this study was to determine genomic and image-based biomarkers as adverse prognostic factors in stage III/IV melanoma patients with resected disease. We found combining genomic and PET/CT derived biomarkers with current clinical assessment may offer additional prognostic tools to stratify patients in the clinic.

• Neuroblastoma and adrenal gland single-cell study

  Neuroblastoma is a pediatric tumor of the developing sympathetic nervous system. However, the cellular origin of neuroblastoma remains to be defined. Here, we study single-cell transcriptomes of neuroblastomas and normal human developing adrenal glands at various stages of embryonic and fetal development. We define normal differentiation trajectories during adrenal medullary development and identify the cellular origin of neuroblastoma. Importantly, adrenergic and mesenchymal neuroblastomas with varying clinical phenotypes match different temporal states along normal differentiation trajectories, with the degree of differentiation corresponding to clinical prognosis.

• A Genome-Wide Association Study of Heroin Dependence

  This collaboration of Australian and American investigators aims to identify genes associated with liability for heroin dependence. The project uses a case-control design in which cases met lifetime DSM-IV criteria for heroin dependence. Controls included assessed individuals who did not meet DSM-IV heroin dependence criteria and unassessed general population controls. Cases and controls were obtained from the several large investigations including: The Comorbidity and Trauma Study, Heroin Dependence in Western Australia, the OZ-ALC Study, a Twin Study of Mole Development in Adolescence, and ongoing genetic studies of substance dependence conducted by investigators at Yale and collaborating institutions. These projects are briefly described below. The Comorbidity and Trauma Study (PI: Elliot Nelson), a retrospective case-control study examining genetic and environmental factors contributing to heroin dependence liability. The study was funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), and was run in collaboration with Washington University, the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR), and the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre (NDARC), University of New South Wales. Case participants were recruited from maintenance clinics in the greater Sydney area. Control participants were recruited from employment centres and community centres, open street malls, and local press servicing the same geographical area as the opioid maintenance treatment clinics and either denied recreational use of opioids or had used these drugs recreationally fewer than 11 times lifetime. The prevalence in these individuals of non-opioid licit drug dependence and illicit drug dependence as well as childhood trauma exposure and other psychiatric disorders is elevated considerably versus estimates of similar measures in Australian general population samples. Participants provided blood samples as a source of DNA and completed a comprehensive psychiatric diagnostic interview based on the Semi-Structured Assessment of the Genetics of Alcoholism - Australia (SSAGA-OZ) augmented with sections drawn from other instruments assessing childhood trauma exposure, family history, and screening for borderline personality disorder. Heroin Dependence in Western Australia (PI: Sybille Schwab) is a study focusing both on genetic contributions to heroin dependence and response to naltrexone treatment of the disorder. Participants completed a clinical assessment and provided blood samples during their treatment at the Perth Naltrexone Clinic now name as the Fresh Start Recovery Programme. Funding for the project was provided by the Australia Government's National Health and Medical Research Council (Grant # 513862; PI: Sybille Schwab) Affected subjects from ongoing genetic studies of substance dependence conducted by investigators at Yale (PI: Joel Gelernter) and collaborating institutions were collected in the course of several NIDA-funded studies. Those included in the current set were assessed by means of the SSADDA (Semi-Structured Assessment for Drug Dependence and Alcoholism). All are opioid dependent European-Americans, and all list heroin as the opioid must used. Most were collected at Yale University School of Medicine or University of CT School of Medicine under the supervision of Drs Joel Gelernter and Henry Kranzler. Control subjects were also collected in the course of several NIDA- and NIAAA-funded studies. Those included in the current set were assessed by means of the SSADDA (Semi-structured Assessment for Drug Dependence and Alcoholism). Most were collected at Yale University School of Medicine or University of Connecticut School of Medicine under the supervision of Drs Joel Gelernter and Henry Kranzler. The OZ-ALC Study (PI: Andrew Heath) consists of a large group of twins and their family members ascertained from the general population Australian Twin Registry who have participated in ongoing research projects. For the control investigation, we have selected individuals who do meet criteria for illicit drug dependence who have had GWAS genotyping with the Illumina Human CNV370-Quad. Inclusion of individuals with alcohol dependence or nicotine dependence was minimized. For a more detailed description of the study, please see: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/gap/cgi-bin/study.cgi?study_id=phs000181.v1.p1 The Twin Study of Mole Development in Adolescence (PI: Nick Martin) is an ongoing investigation of melanocytic naevi funded by the Australian Government's National Health and Medical Research Council (Grant # 389891; PI: Nick Martin). For the current project, unassessed parents of these twins will serve as a control group. These individuals will either have been previously genotyped with the Illumina Human 610-Quad BeadChip or will be genotyped as part of the current project. Parents have largely survived the period of risk for heroin dependence and, by virtue of their participation in this research, are very likely to have a prevalence of heroin dependence lower than that in the general population (i.e., <0.7%). In order to understand the immune modulatory effect of opioids across peripheral blood immune populations, a second study (PI: Christine S. Cheng) analyzed single cell RNA-seq profiles from the PBMCs of a subset of case participants and control participants from the Comorbidity and Trauma Study (PI: Elliot Nelson). The study assessed and identified transcriptional changes between opioid dependent and control samples across naive and LPS stimulated immune populations.
