• Genome Wide Association Study of Asthma

  This data forms part of an ongoing genome wide association study into the genetic variants that predispose to pediatric asthma at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). All cases and controls were recruited at CHOP and genotyped at the Center for Applied Genomics (CAG). The data set includes 793 cases and 1988 controls. The inclusion criteria to this case control study are detailed below.

• Misoprostol-induced high fever GWAS study

  Genome-wide association (GWAS) meta-analysis study of misoprostol-induced fever was conducted on two South American cohorts (Argentina and Ecuador). DNA was collected from blood of women who were screened for postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) and administered misoprostol were included in the study. Genotypes were acquired from the Global Screening Array (Illumina). Meta-analysis of these cohorts was completed using METAL software.

• Genome-Wide Association Analysis of Biomarkers in the InCHIANTI and BLSA

  Version 1 The aim of this study was to identify gene(s) associated with serum iron concentrations. This dataset contains the results from a meta-analysis of 1919 subjects from the InCHIANTI and Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA). Both studies are population based prospective studies that evaluate the contributors of normal aging. Version 2 We performed genome wide analysis of 93 circulating biomarkers in the InCHIANTI study of 1210 individuals, after imputation from the 1000 genomes project.

• Genome-Wide Analysis of Aberrant Position and Sequence of Plasma DNA Fragment Ends in Patients With Cancer

  This study investigated fragmentation characteristics in plasma cell-free DNA and evaluated the relevance of such analysis for cancer diagnostics. Specifically, we performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) of healthy individuals and cancer patients, and evaluated genome-wide coverage and sequences surrounding fragment ends. This was a retrospective study of archived plasma samples. The WGS data are available through this submission. Detailed study design and findings were published in Budhraja et al. Science Translational Medicine 2023.

• Genomic Characterization of African-American Prostate Cancer

  African-American men have the highest incidence and mortality rate from prostate cancer. This study represents a whole exome sequencing study of prostate cancer samples from African-American men. We performed exome sequencing and analysis of prostate tumors and matched normal tissues to identify somatic mutations and insertion/deletions across this cohort. All sequencing was performed at the Broad Institute. This study has the potential to identify novel recurrently mutated genes in prostate cancer and improve our understanding of prostate cancer in African-Americans.

• Paired Analysis of Host and Pathogen Genomes Identifies Determinants of Human Tuberculosis

  The outcome of infectious diseases may depend on the interaction between human and pathogen genomic variations. This study was designed to explore and validate this relationship in tuberculosis (TB) by conducting a genome-to-genome study of paired genomes from human hosts and the infectious agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis.Blood samples were collected from 699 TB patients in Lima, Peru, as part of a 2020 cohort study during the COVID-19 pandemic. Genotyping data for these individuals are available through dbGaP.

• Diagnosis of pediatric central nervous system tumors using methylation profiling of cfDNA from cerebrospinal fluid

  In this study, we explore the potential of classifying pediatric brain tumors based on methylation profiling of the cell-free DNA in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). For this proof-of-concept study, we collected 20 cerebrospinal fluid samples of pediatric brain cancer patients via a ventricular drain placed for reasons of increased intracranial pressure. For 11 patients in this study we collected matched tumor DNA. This cohort contains fastQ files of cfRRBS data of these samples.

• The aim of this study was to identify underlying hub genes and dysregulated pathways associated with the development of HCC using bioinformatics analysis.

  In the present study, we identified differentially expressed protein-coding genes from RNA transcriptional profiling performed on 11 paired cancer tissues and adjacent non-cancerous tissues. Then, we conducted GO, KEGG, PPI network and centralities analyses to study and identify changes in pathways and hub genes. The aim of this study was to improve understanding of HCC carcinogenesis by providing information concerning the genetic changes that occur during disease progression and to uncover the expression of biomarkers with potential use for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of disease progression.

• Microarray Gene Expression Data from Early Skin Biopsies of a Secukinumab Clinical Trial in Psoriasis

  The phase II clinical study CAIN457A2223 (NCT01537432) was designed to evaluate the proportion of patients achieving reversal of chronic plaque psoriasis at weeks 4 and 12 following multiple doses of secukinumab, administered subcutaneously, compared to placebo. 36 patients were enrolled in this study, with 24 being randomly assigned to the treatment arm and 12 to the placebo arm. Starting from week 13, all patients received multiple doses of secukinumab up to week 52 to study long term effects of secukinumab. The microarray gene expression data deposited in this dbGaP study are derived from the early (baseline to week 12) skin biopsies of this clinical trial.
