• Molecular analysis of giant cell lesions

  Giant cell lesions of the jaws are aggressive proliferative conditions that affect young and adult patients. The genetic profile of the tumour has not been established yet. In this project we performed whole exome sequencing of 18 samples and RNAseq (n=6) of giant cell lesions of the jaws. All the tumours are sporadic and only non-syndromic patients were included.

• Exome_sequencing_of_Congenital_Heart_Disease_families_Toronto

  Atrio-ventricular septal defects (AVSD) are a specific form of congenital heart structural defect that result from abnormal or inadequate fusion of endocardial cushions during cardiac development. This project is focused on identifying rare coding variation that substantially increases risk of AVSD, by exome sequencing of AVSD patients and some of their family members, and comparing to control datasets from other sources.

• Age-related remodeling of apparently normal esophageal epithelia by common cancer drivers

  Driver mutated clones multi-focally emerged from early adulthood and over years, increase their number and size, ultimately remodeling the entire esophageal epithelia in extreme elderly. Our results suggest that clonal expansion in esophageal epithelia is an inevitable consequence of normal aging, differentially impacting the development of cancer depending on mutation type and exposure to drinking and smoking.

• Lung_Plasma_rearrangement_screen

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from lung cancer patients and subjected to short paired end sequencing on the llumina platform. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• Osteosarcoma_whole_genome_rearrangement_screen

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from Osteosarcoma cancer patients and subjected to short paired end sequencing on the llumina platform. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• PLCRC_study

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from Colorectal cancer patients and subjected to short paired end sequencing on the llumina platform. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• Chromatin 3D interactions mediate genetic effects on gene expression

  Studying the genetic basis of gene expression and chromatin organization is key to characterize the effect of genetic variability on the function and structure of the human genome. Here, we unravel how genetic variation perturbs gene regulation using a dataset combining activity of regulatory elements, gene expression and genetic variants across 317 individuals and two cell types.

• Functional_characterisation_of_CpG_islands_in_human_and_mouse_tissues

  Tissue-specific methylation patterns suggest a role for CpG island (CGI) methylation in differentiation and cell-type-specific gene regulation. We have applied CXXC affinity purification (CAP), MBD affinity purification (MAP) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) in combination with solexa sequencing to investigate the extent and functional significance of CGI methylation in sperm, blood, cerebellum and ES cells for both human and mouse.

• Mutant_clone_mapping_in_normal_oesohagus_and_skin

  We will use targeted exome sequencing to examine normal appearing oesophageal epithelium and skin to determine the mutational burden. DNA will be extracted from epithelia of a defined size and we will overlay positional information from the epithelial pieces to give clone maps over a wide area. This will be done in both oesophageal epithelium and skin

• A Phase II Trial of High Dose Interleukin-2 and Multi-site Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Patients with Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

  Immune-based therapies have improved outcomes for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) but there is still a significant margin for improvement. Here, we report the results of a phase II trial combining high dose Interleukin-2 (HD-IL-2) with stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SAbR) for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.
