• Wnt Activity Reveals Context-Dependent Genetic Effects on Gene Regulation in Neural Progenitors

  In this study we aimed to identify context-dependent regulatory functions of common genetic variation after stimulation of the canonical Wnt pathway. Fetal cortical tissue between 14 and 21 gestation weeks was subjected to RNA-Sequencing (242 samples) and ATAC-Sequencing (222 samples) to profile expression and chromatin accessibility, respectively. Considering donor genotypes, we were able to identify eQTLs, caQTLs, as well as response QTLs of both categories. The dataset provided here includes 242 RNA-sequencing files in bam format and 222 ATAC-sequencing files in bam format. We also provide 83 donor genotypes in VCF format (hg38).

• Genetics of Eating Disorders

  This genetic study examines Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge Eating Disorder. We performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on 93 unrelated individuals with eating disorders (38 restricted-eating, 55 binge-eating) to identify novel damaging variants. Using an unbiased, data-driven approach, we prioritized candidate genes with an excessive burden of predicted damaging variants. We then empirically tested one top candidate pathway in a mouse model of binge-like eating. We identified an excess of novel damaging variants in 186 genes in the restricted-eating group and 245 genes in the binge-eating group. The list of genes significantly enriched (OR = 4.6, p

• GenomeAsia 100K Project: Human DNA samples collecting and whole genome sequencing of Asian populations

  The number of basal divergences, admixture, and the degrees of isolation among Indigenous North Eurasian and Native South American populations remain debated, with most insights derived from genome-wide genotyping data. This study aims to improve our understanding of the ancient dynamics and shaping of the contemporary populations of North Eurasia and the Americas. Using large-scale whole-genome sequencing of 1,537 individuals across 139 ethnic groups from these regions, we identify population structures, clarify the prehistoric migrations and the role of past environments in the diversification of human populations.

• RNA-seq data of bone marrow CD34-positive cells from 57 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and 5 healthy individuals (62 participants in total)

  Genetic mutations in hematopoietic neoplasms, seen in disease-specific and non-specific ways, are key drivers in pathogenesis. Typically, these mutations alone don't cause neoplasms; rather, multiple mutations or breakdowns in regulatory mechanisms occur, progressing the disease through stages. Genetic mutation patterns vary even within subtypes, suggesting shared gene expression abnormalities from different mutations may drive neoplasm development. Identifying these "common factors" is vital for effective molecular-targeted therapy development. Our study aims to elucidate neoplasm pathogenesis by analyzing patient genetic abnormalities, pinpointing "common factors" in each subtype for novel targeted therapy development.

• Research for candidate genes of splenic epidermoid cyst

  Splenic epidermoid cyst is a very rare benign tumor-like lesion filled with fluid or semi-fluid material. It occurs mostly in 2nd or 3rd decades of life with some female dominance. Most cases are asymptomatic and the clinical symptoms are dependent on the size of the cyst. Exome re-sequencing is an efficient strategy to selectively sequence the protein-coding regions of the genome, and has increasingly been used to identify novel genetic variants underlying Mendelian diseases. In this study, exome re-sequencing of 8 Japanese patients with splenic epidermoid cyst were conducted.

• Epigenomic analysis of the human placenta and endometrium constituting the fetal-maternal interface

  This study aims to determine the reference epigenomes of the human placenta and endometrium, which constitute the fetal-meternal interface, for future use in studies of human diseases associated with reproduction and development. In the placenta, we focus on cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast cells (both at first trimester and at term) and, in the endometrium, we focus on epithelial cells (at the follicular and secretory phases) and stroma cells. These reference epigenomic data will be of valuable resource in studying disease-associated differences in epigenomic modification in the reproductive system.

In the placenta, we focus on cytotrophoblast and syncytiotrophoblast cells (both at first trimester and at term) and, in the endometrium, we focus on epitherial cells (at the follicular and secretory phases) and stroma cells.

• Single B cell analysis in pemphigus patients

  pemphigus is caused by autoantibodies that target cell-cell adhesion molecules, desmoglein(Dsg). Clinical effect of anti-CD20 antibody therapy suggtests that Dsg-specific memory B cell, the precursor of autoantigen secreting plasmablast, may play an important role of disease activity. This study aimed to isolate Dsg-specific memory B cell using recombinant labeled Dsg proteins and performed single cell RNA-sequence to detect autoimmune B cell specific gene expression. For control, we also isolate non-Dsg specific memory B cells from same patients, or forein antigen (Flu HA) specific memory B cells from vaccinated healthy volunteers.

• Comprehensive genetic landscape, immune checkpoint profiling, and establishment of patient-derived xenograft (PDX) of metachronous brain tumors from constitutive mismatch repair deficiency with a biallelic variant on MSH6

  Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in mismatch repair genes (PMS2, MSH6, MLH1, or MSH2) resulting in the development of a variety of different tumors, including brain neoplasms. This study molecularly characterized a Brazilian child with CMMRD, harboring two metachronous brain tumors (medulloblastoma and high-grade glioma), and established a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) of the CMMRD-associated brain tumor. Keywords: Brazil, Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency syndrome, exome, MSH6, medulloblastoma, high-grade glioma.

• RNAseq of MCL cell lines

  This study profiles the transcriptomic response of the Mino-VEN-R and Jeko-BTK-R mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell lines to pirtobrutinib (PBN) treatment using bulk RNA sequencing. Mino-VEN-R models drug-tolerant persister (DTP) cells that arise during exposure to non-covalent BTK inhibitors. Building on our recent findings that DTP cells undergo metabolic and phenotypic state transitions governed by TCA cycle reprogramming, this dataset aims to capture gene expression changes associated with treatment-induced plasticity. The results contribute to a broader multi-omic framework exploring mechanisms of resistance and therapeutic vulnerability in MCL.
