• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• Protracted Neuronal Recruitment in the Temporal Lobe of Young Children

  This study describes a stream of migrating neurons directed to the human entorhinal cortex. This migration is among the most protracted in the developing human brain, with young neurons still arriving at 2-3 years of age. We did not observe a similar migratory process in the early postnatal macaque brain, which suggests that this migration may be uniquely delayed or extended into early postnatal human life. Using immunohistochemistry and single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq), we identified these late-arriving neurons as being mainly CGE-derived LAMP5+/RELN+ interneurons.

• Single-Cell Analysis of the Multiple Myeloma Microenvironment after Gamma-Secretase Inhibition and CAR T-Cell Therapy

  We examined the effects of gamma-secretase inhibition (GSI) on the bone marrow microenvironment in multiple myeloma patients before anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) CAR T-cell therapy. Single-nuclei RNA and ATAC sequencing revealed significant changes in gene expression and chromatin accessibility, especially in monocytes and tumor cells, following exposure to GSI. The findings suggest that GSI influences not only BCMA signaling but also broader cellular interactions within the tumor microenvironment. De-identified sequencing data from the study is available through dbGaP.

• NHLBI TOPMed: African American Sarcoidosis Genetics Resource

  This study aims to comprehensively interrogate the genomes of African American sarcoidosis families. Sarcoidosis is characterized by a hyperimmune response resulting in granuloma formation in multiple organs. It affects African Americans (AAs) more frequently and more severely than whites. While previous linkage, admixture, candidate gene and genome-wide association (GWA) studies show statistically compelling effects, causal variants are still unknown and much of sarcoidosis heritability is yet to be explained. This "missing" heritability likely includes effects of both common (minor allele frequency (MAF)>5%) and rare variants (MAF

• Deciphering the complex clonal heterogeneity of polycythemia vera and the response to interferon alpha

  We integrated colony formation and differentiation assays with single-cell RNA sequencing and single-cell genotyping in PV patient-derived cells vs. healthy controls to dissect how IFNa targets diseased clones during erythroid differentiation. Our findings indicate that PV-derived clones either undergo apoptosis or pass through their typical differentiation cycle, contributing to the long-term exhaustion of mutant cells in the bone marrow. The pivotal roles of ribosomal genes and clonal prerequisites in the therapeutic mechanism of IFNa are underscored by our study.
