• Germline WES of serrated polyposis syndrome

  The serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) is a disease with a mainly unknown inherited genetic basis characterized by the presence of multiple and/or large serrated polyps in the colon and a higher associated risk for colorectal cancer (CRC). The objective of the present study was to identify new SPS/CRC germline predisposition genes by using whole-exome sequencing in two affected SPS patients from the same family.

• Characterization of cell types, positional codes, and enhancers contributing to human facial individuality and pathology

  Human genetic diversity generates an astonishing variety of facial shapes, and craniofacial anomalies rank among the most common birth defects. This study generated a multimodal atlas of human embryonic craniofacial development across embryonic weeks 6–11, including single-cell transcriptomics, chromatin accessibility, and spatial transcriptomics. The dataset characterizes cell states, mesenchymal subtypes, and their gene-enhancer cis-regulatory landscapes in space and time. These data provide a resource for studying normal human facial development, craniofacial abnormalities, and the genetic mechanisms underlying facial individuality.

• Chromosomal mutational signatures of DNA damaging agents at single cell resolution

  The chromosomal scale mutational spectrum of small molecules that interact with DNA has been hard to study at scale, as mutational events are distributed in location and occur in parallel in different cells. Here, we present a framework that pairs phylogenetic ancestry reconstruction with mutational signature decomposition to characterise recent, cell-private CNA mutational processes at single-cell resolution. We used this framework to characterize the cell-wise “foreground” of contemporaneous CNAs induced by strand-break inducing chemotherapeutic drugs of different mechanisms. We demonstrate that platinum salts, G-quadruplex stabilizers and topoisomerase II inhibitors, although mechanistically distinct, converge on a mutational signature dominated by telomere-bounded copy-number gain and losses. This signature is observed in different genetic backgrounds and in vivo, in drug treated patient derived-xenograft tumours. We also observe a high rate of endogenous telomere-bounded mutational foreground in BRCA1 deficient cells. We show that the single cell genome derived signature exposures are drug dose-dependent, and use this to identify the decay of mutational load after drug withdrawal. We observe that both cisplatin and a G4 binder molecule (CX5461) exhibit foreground mutational signature persistence up to 3 weeks after drug withdrawal, suggesting that residual effects of exposure may last longer than anticipated. Finally, extending the framework to serially drug-treated patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models, we show that telomere-bounded CNA signature exposure is associated with tumour response across and resistance states exhibit only background levels of mutational signatures. This is consistent with loss of mutational activity on the genome, as opposed to acquired tolerance to chromosomal mutations as a mechanism for some forms of chemotherapeutic drug resistance. Together our results show that scWGS can identify contemporaneous chromosomal mutation patterns induced by small molecules in human tissues.

• Multi-faceted metastasis decoding: clonal fitness, site pressure, and transcriptional modulation

  The dynamics of unique pressures that evolve metastasis fitness due to genetic and non-genetic components in relationship to primary versus metastatic site has remained difficult to decipher due to the highly complex and intertwined relationship of these features to the heterogeneous clonal structures within tumors. To simplify this problem, we generated serially passaged patient-derived xenografts (PDX) that developed reproducible metastasis and examined them for robust clonal selection using DLP+ single cell genome sequencing. This clonal composition analysis identified a simpler PDX model of metastases that displayed very high intra-PDX clonal competitive fitness, marked with dominant and differential clonal sweeps at metastatic and primary sites by different clones. Further testing this fitness using the different combinations of clones’ transplantation, re-confirmed this high clonal selectivity of a metastatically fit clone at metastatic sites compared to the primary site, hence revealing copy number aberration (CNA) clonal state dependent fixed metastasis fitness. Overall, by testing 9 PDX lines we found two lines with reproducible metastasis which identified a model that simplified the complexities of tumor evolution during metastasis and revealed the dominant role of favorable CNA clonal structure in fixating fitness.

• ATACseq of CD4 and CD8 T cells from CLL patients and age-matched HD

  This study investigates chromatin accessibility landscapes in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and age-matched healthy donors (HD). Briefly, peripheral blood T cells were isolated using magnetic bead-based negative selection, with CD4+ or CD8+ fractions further purified by FACS sorting. Samples were either used at baseline or after 2 days of acd3-cd28 stimulation in vitro. ATAC-seq libraries were generated using the Omni-ATAC protocol and sequenced as paired-end reads on an Illumina NovaSeq platform. Data were processed using the ENCODE ATAC-seq pipeline, including quality control, adapter trimming, alignment to the GRCh38 reference genome, duplicate removal, and assessment of library quality metrics. Accessible chromatin regions were identified by peak calling, followed by differential accessibility analysis between CLL and HD samples using DESeq2 within DiffBind. The study aims to define disease-associated regulatory changes in T cell subsets in CLL, with emphasis on epigenetic alterations underlying T cell dysfunction we report in out in vitro readouts.

• Terminal differentiation program of CD8 T cells guides immunotherapeutic options for CLL patients

  Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) remains incurable and autologous T-cell-based therapies induce durable remissions in only a minority of patients. Although poor T-cell performance in CLL has been attributed to exhaustion, T cells from CLL patients retain cytokine production and lack key transcriptional markers of exhaustion, suggesting an alternative state of differentiation. Here, we performed an integrated phenotypic, epigenetic and functional analysis of circulating CD8⁺ T cells from treatment-naive CLL patients to define the nature and therapeutic relevance of terminal differentiation in CLL. CD8⁺ T cells from treatment-naive CLL patients were enriched for a terminally differentiated, CD27⁻CD28⁻CD57⁺KLRG1⁺ population with several senescence-associated features, including increased cell size, granularity, β-galactosidase activity, and reduced basal autophagy. However, these cells lacked key hallmarks of irreversible senescence. Instead, CLL T cells mounted robust but transient proliferative bursts and developed activation-associated γH2AX signals followed by impaired persistence and increased cell death upon repeated activation. Especially CD57⁺ T cells were vulnerable and incompatible with the experimental steps required for CAR T-cell manufacturing. The potent, acute effector function of these cells could, however, be harnessed by bispecific T-cell engagers, which induced effective cytolysis of both cell lines and primary CLL targets by these T cells. Collectively, our data support a model in which CD8+ T-cell dysfunction in CLL reflects accumulation of short-lived, terminally differentiated effector cells rather than canonical exhaustion or irreversible senescence. This state limits durable persistence required for CAR T-cell approached while preserving acute cytotoxicity relevant for bispecific antibody-based therapies in CLL.

• BLUEPRINT Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cell Methylomes

  An optimized whole genome bisulfite sequencing protocol (µWGBS, Farlik et al. 2015 Cell Reports) was used to establish DNA methylation profiles of FACS-purified stem and progenitor cells types of the human blood lineage. Most cell types were sorted from the peripheral blood of three donors with eight pools of ten cells, two pools of 50 cells, and one pool of 1000 cells. HSCs and MPPs were also sorted from fetal liver (HSCs only), cord blood, and bone marrow. Single-cell methylomes using the scWGBS protocol (Farlik et al. 2015 Cell Reports) were established for six cell types (HSC, MPP, CMP, GMP, CLP, MLP0). Gene expression profiling using the Smart-seq2 protocol (Picelli et al. 2013 Nature Methods) was done for nine stem/progenitor cell types (HSC, MPP, CMP, GMP, CLP, MLP0, MLP1, MLP2, MLP3).

• Genomic signatures of recent human adaptation to the Foraging-to-Farming Transition

  Human populations across multiple regions transitioned from hunting and foraging to sedentary farming societies starting ~10 to 12kya, narrowing dietary diversity and transforming relationships with animals and pathogens. To investigate how these ecological changes shaped human adaptations, we analyzed high-coverage whole-genome sequence data from 1,092 individuals practicing hunter-gatherer, agriculturalist, and pastoralist lifestyles across eight geographic regions spanning Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Collectively, our findings illuminate the genetic legacy of ecological changes associated with the foraging-to-farming transition and highlight the central role of non-coding regulatory variation in human adaptation.

• A spatiotemporal cancer cell trajectory underlies glioblastoma heterogeneity

  Abstract: Cancer cells display highly heterogeneous and plastic states in glioblastoma, an incurable brain tumour. However, how these malignant states arise and whether they follow a tractable cellular trajectory across tumours is poorly understood. Here, we generated a deep single cell and spatial multi-omic atlas of human glioblastoma that pairs transcriptomic, epigenomic and genomic profiling of 12 tumours across multiple regions. We identify that glioblastoma heterogeneity is driven by spatially-patterned transitions of cancer cells from developmental-like states towards those defined by a glial injury response and hypoxia. This cancer cell trajectory regionalizes tumours into distinct tissue niches and manifests in a conserved manner across tumours as well as genetically distinct tumour subclones. Moreover, using a new deep learning framework to jointly map cancer cell states and clones in situ, we show that tumour subclones are finely spatially intermixed through glioblastoma tissue niches. Finally, we show that this cancer cell trajectory is intimately linked to myeloid heterogeneity and unfolds across regionalised myeloid signalling environments. Our findings define a stereotyped trajectory of cancer cells in glioblastoma and unify glioblastoma tumour heterogeneity into a tractable cellular and tissue framework.

• Heterogeneous endocrine cell composition defines human islet functional phenotypes

  Phenotyping and genotyping initiatives within the Integrated Islet Distribution Program (IIDP), the largest source of human islets for research in the U.S., provide standardized assessment of islet preparations distributed to researchers and enable the integration of multiple data types. Data from islets of the first 299 organ donors without diabetes analyzed using this pipeline highlights substantial heterogeneity in islet cell composition associated with hormone secretory traits, sex, reported race and ethnicity, genetically predicted ancestry, and genetic risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D). While α and β cell composition influenced insulin and glucagon secretory traits, the abundance of δ cells showed the strongest association with insulin secretion and was also associated with the genetic risk score (GRS) for T2D. These findings have important implications for understanding mechanisms underlying diabetes heterogeneity and islet dysfunction and may provide insight into strategies for personalized medicine and β cell replacement therapy.

• G4SCOPE identifies sequence features and epigenetic contexts of chromatin G-quadruplexes

  Cancer-associated epigenetic remodeling involves both DNA secondary structures and covalent cytosine modifications, yet predicting chromatin-constrained G-quadruplex (G4) folding remains challenging. Here, we develop G4SCOPE, a multi-task deep learning framework that predicts G4 occupancy and quantitative CUT&Tag signal directly from DNA sequence in isogenic human breast epithelial cells. Trained across wild-type, TP53-deficient, TP53/BRCA1-deficient and TP53/BRCA2-deficient backgrounds, the model integrates convolutional motif learning with transformer-based self-attention to capture local motifs and broader contextual sequence features without auxiliary epigenomic inputs. It distinguishes chromatin-associated G4s from GC-matched loci with in vitro G4-forming potential, captures quantitative variation in local CUT&Tag signal, and performs consistently across the four breast epithelial genotypes. Independent application in K562 cells further supports the portability of the framework to a distinct cellular context. Model-derived G4 representations also separate loci with distinct local 5-methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine profiles. Together, these results show that DNA sequence can predict chromatin G4 occupancy and quantitative CUT&Tag signal, and that the learned representations reflect differences in local cytosine-modification state.
