• Targeted sequencing about core genes implicated in telomere biology

  We sequenced the coding exons of core genes involved in telomere maintenance using peripheral blood DNA of 192 CRC patients. The primary sequencing data were generated by using Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine® (PGM™) platform.

• Expressed Pseudogenes in the Transcriptional Landscape of Human Cancers

  In this study, we describe a systematic analysis of pseudogene 'transcription' from an RNA-Seq resource of 293 samples, from 13 cancer and normal tissue types. We observed a highly prevalent, genome-wide expression of pseudogenes that could be categorized as universally expressed or lineage- and/or cancer-specific. We also explored disease subtype specificity and functions of selected expressed pseudogenes. We provide evidence that transcribed pseudogenes are a significant contributor to the transcriptional landscape of cells and are positioned to play significant roles in cellular differentiation and cancer progression. Our work provides a transcriptome resource that enables high-throughput analyses of pseudogene expression.

• FaceBase Study of Facial Shape in Tanzania: CIDR

  The goals of this project are to identify loci that underlie major genetic determinants of orofacial shape, by means of a GWAS in a cohort of normal African children (from Tanzania) from whom we have collected 3D digitized facial morphometric scans, and a subsequent replication study of normal children from the same population. These studies are part of the NIDCR FaceBase initiative (https://www.facebase.org/). In addition to dbGaP, all study genotype and phenotype data (including primary facial scans and landmarks) will be available for data-sharing with qualified investigators via the NIDCR FaceBase Hub (www.facebase.org/), following approval by the NIDCR FaceBase Data Access Committee.

• Maternal-Fetal Immune Responses in Preterm Labor and Congenital Anomalies

  The purpose of this study is to provide a reference profile of small extracellular RNAs in body fluids. These samples were originally obtained in a study that had a different purpose. The purpose of the original study was to learn and understand more about the causes of preterm labor, how to prevent it, and how to treat it. What the researchers learn by studying tissue, cells, and/or fluid (including blood samples, amniotic fluid, and placental tissue) may help to prevent preterm labor and prevent preterm delivery, which will improve the prenatal care women receive and improve the health of newborns.

• Copy Number Variation in Congenital Kidney Malformations

  We report a study of large rare, copy number variants (CNVs) in 192 patients with renal hypodysplasia (RHD). Congenital malformations of the kidney and urinary tract are present in 3 to 7 per 1,000 births, accounting for 16% of birth defects. These malformations account for 40-50% of pediatric and 7% of adult end-stage renal disease worldwide. Among these malformations, RHD represents a severe forms of disease with profound impact on long-term renal survival. We found that a significant fraction of RHD patients have a molecular diagnosis attributable to a genomic disorder, suggesting kidney malformations as a sentinel manifestation of pathogenic genomic imbalances.

• A Phase I/IB Study of Ipilimumab or Nivolumab in Patients With Relapsed Hematologic Malignancies After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

  Relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is characterized by poor outcomes and novel therapeutic options are urgently needed. Immune checkpoint blockade using CTLA-4 and PD-1 blocking antibodies are a potential concept for reinstating a dormant graft-versus-leukemia (GvL) effect.This study investigated transcriptomic changes in biopsies obtained from patients who received immune checkpoint blockade for relapsed hematologic malignancy post-HSCT and elucidated transcriptional programs associated with successful reinvigoration of GvL. Differential gene expression analysis showed evidence of increased T cell infiltration in biopsies of responders to ipilimumab treatment and demonstrated shared gene programs between GvL and GvHD.

• Chromothripsis in Small Cell Lung Carcinoma Associated with Carcinoid Transformation

  Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is typically associated with tobacco exposure and inactivation of RB1 and TP53 genes. We performed detailed clinicopathologic, genomic, and transcriptomic profiling of an atypical subset of SCLC in never/light smokers that lacked RB1 and TP53 co-inactivation and found that most cases were associated with chromothripsis – massive, localized chromosome shattering, recurrently involving chromosomes 11 or 12, among other findings. Uniquely, these clinically aggressive tumors exhibited genomic and pathologic links to pulmonary carcinoids. Conversely, SCLC never smokers harboring inactivated RB1 and TP53 exhibited hallmarks of adenocarcinoma-to-SCLC derivation, supporting two distinct pathways of plasticity-mediated pathogenesis of SCLC in never smokers.

• RNA sequencing data from glioblastoma primary cell lines treated with indisulam data access committee

  Four glioblastoma primary cell lines (BT592/pt1, BT1007/pt2, BT1009/pt3; BT1012/pt4) were derived from glioblastoma Cavitron Ultrasonic Aspirator (CUSA) material and cultured as neurospheres (GB-NS) in DMEM/F12+Glutamax medium containing B27 supplement (Thermofisher, Waltham, MA, USA) and the mitogenic factors epidermal growth factor (EGF) and fibroblast growth factor b (bFGF) (Peprotech, Rocky Hill, NJ, USA). GB-NS were confirmed mycoplasma-free by PCR Test. Cells were seeded in triplicate in 6-well plates, treated with 5 μM indisulam (Sigma Aldrich, Merk), or vehicle control, and collected after 6 and 16 hours for RNA extraction. Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol Reagent (Life Technologies, Thermo Fisher, cat n. 15596026), RNeasy Mini Kit, and RNase-Free DNase Set (Qiagen, cat n. 74104 and 79254). Sample QC, RNA library preparations, and sequencing reactions were conducted at GENEWIZ (Germany GmbH). The concentration of RNA was quantified using a Qubit Fluorometer (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) and RNA integrity was assayed using a TapeStation. Sequencing libraries were prepared with RNA with PolyA selection and ERCC spike-in with standard ERCC kit (ERCC RNA Spike-In Mix,Thermo Fisher 4456740). Final libraries (Illumina, RNA with PolyA selection) were sequenced on a NovaSeq platform, producing 2×150 base paired-end reads.
