• Deep RNA sequencing in CLL

  Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a B-cell neoplasm with a heterogeneous clinical and biological behavior. We have performed deep RNA sequencing in different subpopulations of B-lymphocytes from healthy individuals and CLL cells from a cohort of 98 patients, and characterized the CLL transcriptional landscape with unprecedented resolution. The transcriptomic architecture of CLL uncovered here refines the biological characterization of the disease and opens new perspectives for the clinical management of patients.

• Gut microbiota analysis after 3months probiotic-like bacteria or placebo treatment in subjects with metabolic syndrome

  Background: Probiotic-like bacteria treatment has been described to be associated with gut microbiota modifications. Goal: To decipher if the effects of the tested probiotic-like bacteria are due to the bacteria itself or due to the effects of the bacteria on the gut microbiota. Methodology: In this study, gut microbiota has been analyzed from feces samples of subjects with metabolic syndrome and treated with one of the 2 tested probiotic-like bacteria or with the placebo during 3months.

• Mutations conferring differential treatment response in breast cancer

  Poor prognosis primary breast cancer patients usually receive cytotoxic chemotherapy as a component of treatment, but despite this aggressive therapy recurrences remain common. Improved understanding of chemoresistance pathways would allow better stratification of chemotherapy using predictive markers, and may allow therapeutic inhibition of resistance mechanisms in order to chemosensitise tumours. We aimed to identify molecular pathways that define chemoresponse using the novel approach of examining the selection exerted by neoadjuvant chemotherapy on sub-clonal somatic mutational profiles of cancer cells.

• A GWAS for cutaneous leishmaniasis in Brazil

  Our goal was to identify genetic risk factors for cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) caused by Leishmania braziliensis. Genotyping 2066 CL cases and 2046 controls using Illumina HumanCoreExomeBeadChips provided data for 4,498,586 imputed single nucleotide variants (SNVs). Genome-wide association testing using linear mixed models took account of genetic diversity/ethnicity/admixture. Post-GWAS positional, expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL), and chromatin interaction mapping was performed in FUMA. Transcriptional data were compared between lesions and normal skin, and cytokines measured using flow cytometry and Bioplex assay.

• Genomic Signatures Reveal DNA Damage Response Deficiency in Brain Metastases of Colorectal Cancer

  Brain metastasis (BM) of colorectal cancer (CRC) is rare but lethal, and lacks effective therapies or a good understanding of its genomic landscapes. We conduct an analysis of whole-exome sequencing (WES) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data on 19 trios of patient-matched BMs, primary CRC tumors, and adjacent normal tissue to (1) document genomic signatures during the evolution of CRC BM; (2) identify clinically actionable targets for the BM treatment; and (3) identify potential drivers in CRC BM.

• Dissecting the Spatial Heterogeneity of Single Circulating Tumor Cells in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

  The dismal outcome of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is closely associated with intra- and extrahepatic metastases, which have been proposed to be initiated by circulating tumor cells (CTCs). However, the plasticity of gene expression and immune evasion mechanisms of CTCs during systemic circulation are not well defined. Here, we determined intra- and inter-vascular transcriptional heterogeneity within the circulatory system using single-cell RNA-sequencing of 113 CTCs isolated from four key vascular sites along their dissemination route in ten HCC patients.

• Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals cell-type specific eQTLs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

  This proof-of-concept study shows that single-cell RNA sequencing in ~25,000 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 45 donors allows for the identification of cell type-specific cis expression quantitative trait loci effects (cis-eQTLs). Moreover, the significant top-eQTL effects show consistent allelic direction (94%) with previously published whole blood deepSAGE data. These cell type-specific eQTLs may give us additional insight into the downstream consequences of genetic risk factors for immune-mediated diseases.

• Deep whole genome sequencing identifies recurrent genomic alterations in breast cancer cell lines and patient derived xenograft models

  Breast cancer cell lines (BCCLs) and patient-derived xenografts (PDX) are the most frequently used models in breast cancer research. Despite their widespread usage, genome sequencing of these models is incomplete, with previous studies only focusing on targeted gene panels, whole exome or shallow whole genome sequencing. Here we describe deep whole genome sequencing (WGS) of commonly used BCCL and PDX models using the Illumina X10 platform with an average ~ 60x coverage.

• Clonal dynamics of normal hepatocyte expansions in homeostatic human livers and their association with the biliary epithelium

  BAM files containing paired-end mtDNA sequencing data from morphologically normal human liver. CCO-proficient hepatocytes acquired from livers in which clonal CCO-deficient hepatocyte patches had been previously identified. Individual BAM files are named according to their patch, line and sample location, where PT denotes tissue near to the portal triad (PT), central hepatic vein (CV) and midway between these two structures (Mid). "Stroma" control samples were used for identifying germ-line variants. Sequenced on NextSeq 500 platform.

• Transcriptomic predictors of survival for palbociclib + endocrine therapy vs. capecitabine in aromatase inhibitor-resistant breast cancer from GEICAM/2013-02 PEARL

  We examined transcriptomic tumor features associated with survival from GEICAM/2013-02 PEARL, a phase III trial of palbociclib + ET vs. capecitabine in aromatase inhibitor-resistant HR+/HER2- MBC. PAM50 intrinsic subtype predicted PFS differences between palbociclib + ET and capecitabine, and lower B-cell-associated gene expression predicted longer OS with palbociclib + ET vs. capecitabine. These features may help identify HR+/HER2- tumors resistant to further ET-based treatment with CDK4/6 inhibitors.
