• Expression Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping Studies in Mid-Secretory Phase Endometrial Cells Identifies HLA-F and TAP2 as Fecundability-Associated Genes

  We performed an unbiased genome-wide expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping study to identify common regulatory (expression) single nucleotide polymorphisms (eSNPs) in mid-secretory endometrium, corresponding to the luteal phase of the ovarian cycle. Biopsies were collected from 58 women with two or more early pregnancy losses and 53 of these samples passed all quality control. RNA was extracted from endometrial biopsies and DNA was extracted for sequencing from blood. Gene expression data can be found at NCBI GEO Series GSE77688.

• A Somatic Reference Standard for Cancer Genome Sequencing

  In this study, we separately performed PCR-free whole genome sequencing on the paired tumor/normal melanoma COLO-829 and lymphoblastoid COLO-829BL cell lines across three separate institutions (TGen, Illumina, Genome Sciences Centre at the British Columbia Cancer Agency). We performed a meta-analysis of all data, in combination with the originally reported analysis of these cell lines by Pleasance et al., and report a somatic reference standard based on consensus events. This standard can be used as a reference for tumor/normal whole genome analyses.

• Leveraging Extended Families for Cardiovascular Disease Genomic Discovery

  This study characterizes a large early onset atrial fibrillation family and identifies a rare causative mutation (R231H) in the KCNQ1 gene. The age of this mutation is ~5000 years, as estimated using IBD-coalescent methods. The geographic distribution and demographic history of the mutation is described. Induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes carrying the mutation have abbreviated action potential duration, indicating a gain-of-function. This data resource provides exome or whole genome sequencing data for six patients and RNA-seq data from the cardiomyocyte experiments.

• Genomic Sequencing of Lung Adenocarcinoma

  Lung carcinoma is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States and world-wide; lung adenocarcinoma is the most common cause of lung cancer. Pilot studies of lung adenocarcinoma with hybrid-capture based whole exome sequencing will enable us to identify new targets for therapy and improve diagnosis. We will analyze a blend of whole exome and whole genome sequencing data as well as copy number and somatic mutation calls for 200 tumor and matched normal controls. When completed this study will represent the most comprehensive lung adenocarcinoma genome dataset to date.

• Characterization of CNS Metastases

  Metastatic disease to the central nervous system (CNS) is devastating, with a poor prognosis. There are limited treatment options for patients with CNS metastases, and in particular with leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LMD). In this study, we evaluated the molecular and cellular features of parenchymal brain metastases and LMD. We used single-cell RNA and cell-free DNA profiling of CSF from patients with LMD receiving immunotherapy to demonstrate shifts in the liquid LMD tumor microenvironment. We also characterize the tumor microenvironment of parenchymal brain metastases using single cell sequencing, before and after treatment with immunotherapy.

• Differential Mutations in Matched Primary and Metastatic Colorectal Cancers

  This study compares DNA mutations detected in matched primary and metastatic colorectal cancer samples from 18 individuals across 1,321 genes. We found many more mutations were shared between tumor pairs (avg. 33.3 mutations/tumor) than were discordant (avg. 2.3 mutations / tumor). Nearly all tumors showed at least one discordance, and these were observed in genes known to be involved in colorectal cancer progression. Therefore, although primary and metastatic colorectal tumors are highly genetically concordant, evidence exists for discordance, which has clinical implications especially in situations of chemotherapy resistance or insensitivity.

• Breakpoint detection using long insert whole genome sequencing

  In this study, we hypothesize that shallow long insert whole genome sequencing (LI-WGS) increases our power for detecting breakpoints compared to shallow short insert WGS. We performed a priori analyses to demonstrate the benefits of LI-WGS, developed a long insert library preparation protocol based off Illumina's protocol, and compared LI-WGS against short insert WGS on test samples. We then used long insert WGS to identify translocations and copy number changes in tumor and germline samples collected from cancer patients with different malignancies.

• Pharmacogenomic Analysis of Microtubule Targeting Agent Response and Toxicity

  Microtubule targeting agents are commonly prescribed for early and metastatic breast cancer and other solid tumors. However, interindividual variability in microtubule targeting drug response and toxicity can cause limited therapeutic benefit and impact quality of life. In the present study, genome-wide analyses were performed to investigate how genetic factors can be used to increase prediction of treatment response and toxicity, identify genes or gene pathways associated with chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity, and inform further in vitro studies that may help isolate differences in response and toxicity of microtubule targeting agents.

• Metagenomic Deep Sequencing in Meningitis and Encephalitis

  This is a prospective observational study seeking to identify pathogens in cases of unexplained neurological disease, particularly those in which there is a presumed infectious cause. This next generation analytical approach will hopefully allow for rapid identification of foreign genomic material, and through a sophisticated bioinformatics pipeline developed in the DeRisi lab, these foreign genomic sequences can be aligned to all known sequences in publicly available databases (i.e. GenBank) which may allow for identification of novel pathogens or known pathogens that are not frequently tested for as part of standard diagnostic work-ups.

• The Vaginal Microbiome in Reproductive Age Women

  The focus of this cross-sectional study was to characterize the vaginal microbiota of asymptomatic, sexually-active, and reproductive-age women representing four self-reported ethnic groups (White, Black, Asian, and Hispanic). Each woman self-collected two mid-vaginal swabs. The first swab was used to prepare a vaginal smear for Nugent gram stain analysis. The second swab was used for DNA extraction, 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, and detection of Candida albicans. In addition, participants measured vaginal pH and completed a detailed questionnaire on sexual health and behaviors.

• Identification of Putative Neoantigens in Stage III Melanoma

  This study of three metastatic melanoma patients utilized exome sequencing and RNA sequencing to help identify putative neoantigen peptides that could be further validated by standard immunological assays before design of a personalized vaccine. For each set of neoantigens identified and verified by standard assays, we designed GMP peptides that correspond to the top neoantigens, then used these to condition dendritic cell isolates from each patient. The conditioned dendritic cells were used as the vaccine in three rounds of vaccination, followed by monitoring for T cell memory response to each of the neoantigens.

• Genomic and Transcriptomic Markers Associated with Response to Immune Checkpoint Blockade

  The neoantigen presentation score (NEOPS) study was designed to better understand molecular determinants of response to immunotherapies, including pembrolizumab and nivolumab in stage III or IV melanoma patients. From this work, we developed a composite approach to predicting neoantigens (NEOPS), which takes into account additional escape mechanisms, including HLA LOH (human leukocyte antigen loss of heterozygosity) and the impact of deleterious mutations to the antigen presentation machinery (APM), yielding an improved prediction of response to immunotherapy compared to TMB (tumor mutational burden) or neoantigen burden alone.

• Whole exome sequencing of 184 unrelated subjects with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (DiGeorge syndrome/velo-cardio-facial syndrome)

  Our goal is to find genetic modifiers of major phenotypes in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, also known as DiGeorge syndrome or velo-cardio-facial syndrome. Whole exome sequencing was performed as part of a contract to the NHLBI, Resequencing and Genotyping Service. We have obtained cardiac phenotype information from the de-identified subjects enrolled in the study, either by echocardiography report or medical doctor report. All of the subjects have a 3 million base pair 22q11.2 deletion flanked by low copy repeats, LCR22, A-D.

• Next Generation Mendelian Genetics: Atypical Werner Syndrome

  Werner syndrome (WS) is an adult-onset progeroid syndrome characterized by accelerated aging. The International Registry of Werner Syndrome in the Department of Pathology, University of Washington, collects WS cases from all over the world. Classical WS is caused by WRN mutations. Those who do not carry WRN are categorized as "atypical Werner syndrome." A small subset of atypical WS is caused by LMNA mutations. There also are many cases whose causes are still unknown. The purpose of this study is to identify other causative gene(s) of atypical WS.

• Inherited Defect in ST6GalNAc1 Reveals Roles of Sialylation in Intestinal Homeostasis

  We have conducted a study of patients with unique mutations in the gene ST6GALNAC1 that encodes the protein ST6GALNAC1 (ST6). Exome sequencing was used to screen worldwide inflammatory bowel disease cohorts, which identified human loss of function mutations of ST6 in individual patients. The affected patients had very early onset (< 6 years old) inflammatory bowel disease. A comprehensive investigation of these gene mutations through in vivo and in vitro experiments revealed that decreased sialylation caused defective mucus proteins and congenital inflammatory bowel disease.

• Genomic and transcriptomic characterization of chordoma

  In this study, we performed paired tumor/normal whole exome and shallow long insert whole genome sequencing, as well as tumor RNAseq, from archival chordoma specimens collected from four patients at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, AZ. The purpose of this analysis was to identify potential therapeutic targets. In three patients, we observed that although different DNA and RNA changes were present in each tumor, alterations fell on converging pathways. In the fourth patient, constitutional DNA demonstrated potentially pathogenic alterations that may have predisposed the patient to chordoma.

• Genomic Analysis of Bevacizumab-induced Hypertension

  Bevacizumab use in the treatment of cancer can lead to the development of hypertension in some patients, and high-grade toxicity can limit therapy or lead to cardiovascular complications. The factors that contribute to interindividual variability in blood pressure rise during bevacizumab treatment are not well understood. In the present study, whole exomes and flanking regulatory regions of candidate genes associated with vasodilation and blood pressure were sequenced in bevacizumab-treated subjects with the objective of identifying genes harboring multiple variants associated with severe, early-onset bevacizumab-induced hypertension.

• Genetic Variants Influence on the Placenta Regulatory Landscape

  This study of the regulatory landscape of the placenta relies on the identification of associations between genetic variant and gene expression changes (eQTLs); genetic variant and DNA methylation changes (mQTLs); and, gene expression change and DNA methylation change (eQTMs). It involves the analysis of DNA sequence variation (n=303), DNA methylation (n=303) and mRNA expression data (n=80) from placentas from healthy women. Such studies are crucial to fully apprehend the complexity of the regulatory landscape and to support further analysis focusing and disease driven phenotype.

• Caregiving as a Natural Stressor in Studies of the Role of Genes That Affect Serotonin Function in Regulating Risk Factors for Coronary Heart Disease (CAREGIVER)

  The burden of caregiving for an ill relative has been shown to interact with existing comorbidities to increase risk of several health outcomes including metabolic syndrome and blood pressure reactivity. The CAREGIVER study was developed to compare cardiometabolic risk factors in caregivers and controls. These risk factors include physiologic measures, psychologic measures, neighborhood characteristics, and genetic and genomic factors. DNA and plasma were collected and used for examination of cardiometabolic and stress biomarkers, genotyping and methylation analysis.
