• Genetic analyses in patients with T or NK cells-associated disorders

  We conduct somatic gene mutation analysis in various diseases involving T cells or NK cells and clarify the gene mutation profile. By comparing clinical information and the results of mutation analysis, we will identify gene groups that influence the onset and refractoriness of the disease. As the analysis continues, the results of mutation analysis may become part of diagnostic criteria in the future, or provide basic data for the development of new therapeutic agents.

• 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.

• Amplicon sequencing of melanoma samples

  The types of biomarkers for skin tumors have been 1) biochemical markers in blood, urine, and body fluid, 2) histopathological markers, 3) genetic examination of tumor tissue, 4) tumor-susceptibility assessed by germ_x0002_line genetic examination. Biomarkers in a blood are frequently used in the treatment of cutaneous malignancies, but are not suitable for early detection of malignancies. Research on circulating tumor cells, cell free DNA, exosomes has been promoted in recent years, but clinical application is halfway. Based on these circumstances, the purpose of this study is to search for biomarkers for diagnosis, therapeutic effect, and follow-up of skin tumors, and to verify their usefulness.

• Chromatin accessibility in stem cells unveils progressive transcriptional reprogramming in myelodysplastic syndrome

  Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) originate from hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) clones with acquired gene mutations/deletions. However, our knowledge on the epigenetic properties of MDS stem cells are limited. Here, we examined chromatin accessibility of MDS stem cells. Chromatin accessibility profiles of MDS stem cells represented the disease status better than progenitor cells and unveiled the process of stem cell reprograming during disease progression. Characterization of differentially accessible regions (DARs) revealed that MDS stem cells acquire progenitor-like chromatin accessibility with disease progression, resulting in imprecise stem-progenitor hierarchy. Profiling of transcriptional factor binding motifs at DARs revealed precocious inactivation and activation of HSC and myeloid transcriptional networks, respectively, in MDS stem cells. Increased chromatin accessibility at CEBP target sites well represented the myeloid reprograming of MDS stem cells and stratified MDS into distinct subgroups. Newly developed "Progenitor scores" based on chromatin accessibility well stratified the disease status and correlated with prognosis. These results highlight that the chromatin properties of MDS stem cells define the cell-autonomous behavior of MDS and disease progression.

• Deciphering molecular mechanisms underlying hematological malignancies and development of novel therapeutic approaches

  We aim to identify epigenomic features dysregulated in hematological malignancies through epigenetic analyses of hematological malignant cells. We also perform RNA sequencing to profile tumor cell-specific transcriptomes and target gene sequencing to profile somatic gene mutations in tumor cells. Regarding identified epigenomic abnormalities, we perform further analysis to determine whether they could be good candidates to translate into therapy development. To this end, we will modulate the activity of targets by using their activators and inhibitors in vitro and establish xenograft mouse models of hematological malignancies and manipulate their activity in vivo. Through these studies, we aim to develop new therapeutic agents or modalities that lead to improved patients��� prognosis.

• Analysis of genes associated with autistic spectrum disorder, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder.

  Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) represent a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental disorders with strong genetic predispositions. Although an increasing number of genetic variants have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ASD, little is known about the relationship between ASD-associated genetic variants and individual ASD traits. We performed case-control association study of 32 Japanese children with ASD (mainly with high-functioning autism) and 36 with typical development.

• Whole genome sequencing of human induced pluripotent stem cells derived from 5 type I cyctic biliary atresia patients

  We have successfully generated a panel of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from five Japanese patients carrying type I cystic biliary atresia (BA). These hiPSC lines have exhibited characteristics of self-renewal and pluripotency. These cells held normal karyotypes mostly, but one of them carried hemizygous deletions, of which clinical significance is unknown yet. Whole genome sequence analysis indicated that some of the mutations or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) commonly found in these patients are related to hepatobiliary abnormality. Given the limited understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of cystic BA, attributed to unknown factors of genetic and environmental causes, these cellular resources will be instrumental in replicating disease phenotypes and in the advancement of novel therapies for this condition.
