• Contribution of specific cell types to the development of Barrett’s esophagus and carcinoma via germline genetic risk

  This study was designed to elucidate how individual cell types in Barrett’s esophagus (BE) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) contribute to disease development via germline genetic risk. We performed single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of BE, EAC and paired normal esophagus and gastric fundus tissue samples. After analyzing individual cell types, we integrated the scRNA-seq data and data of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) on BE/EAC to determine cell type-specific genetic risk. Raw data from the RNA-sequencing is provided here.

• A Genomics-Driven Artificial Intelligence-Based Model Classifies Breast Invasive Lobular Carcinoma and Discovers CDH1 Inactivating Mechanisms

  We developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-model applied to histological images using CDH1 biallelic mutations, pathognomonic for breast invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), as ground truth. We evaluated the performance of the AI-model to predict the presence of CDH1 biallelic mutations and to diagnose ILC. Subsequently, we investigated the molecular underpinning cases of predicted by the model to harbor a CDH1 biallelic mutations but lacking these alterations according to targeted sequencing. Among this analyses, we subjected to whole genome sequencing (WGS) one ILC case lacking CDH1 biallelic mutations by targeted sequencing and lacking CDH1 promoter methylation to determine the molecular basis of its lobular phenotype.

• Single cell RNA and ATAC sequencing data from GBM patients

  Glioblastoma cells infiltrate and incorporate into the normal brain parenchyma. We conduct unbiased multimodal single-cell and spatial sequencing to capture GBM cells and the surrounding tumor microenvironment using a regional sampling strategy. For each patient, we profile the peritumoral region, tumor edge, and tumor core, providing a comprehensive characterization of the transcriptional and epigenetic landscape of GBM spatial heterogeneity, with a specific focus on infiltrative cells.

• Genomic Profile of Multiple Localised Spiradenoma and Spiradenocarcinoma

  Multiple spiradenomas and spiradenocarcinoma from a single donor were subjected to exome sequencing. Tumor samples were microdissected from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue, and genomic DNA was extracted. The DNA samples were subjected to library generation using the xGen ssDNA & Low-Input DNA Library Preparation Kit, followed by exome capture using the xGen Exome Research Panel v2. The libraries were sequenced on DNBSEQ G400RS. Reads were aligned to GRCh37 with BWA.

• Divergent WNT Signaling and Drug Sensitivity Profiles within Hepatoblastoma Tumors and Organoids

  Hepatoblastoma, the most prevalent pediatric liver cancer, almost always carries a WNT-activating CTNNB1 mutation, yet exhibits notable molecular heterogeneity. To characterize this heterogeneity and identify novel targeted therapies, we perform comprehensive analysis of hepatoblastomas and tumor-derived organoids using single-cell RNA-seq/ATAC-seq, spatial transcriptomics, and high-throughput drug profiling. We identify two distinct tumor epithelial signatures: hepatic ‘fetal’ and WNT-high ‘embryonal’, displaying divergent WNT signaling patterns. The fetal group is enriched for liver-specific WNT targets, while the embryonal group is enriched in canonical WNT target genes.

• Identification and characterization of tertiary lymphoid structures in brain metastases

  Brain metastases (BrM) are the most common cancers in the brain. We performed transcriptome-wide gene expression profiling combined with spatial immune cell profiling to characterize the tumor immune microenvironment in BrM from different primary tumors. We found that BrM from lung carcinoma and malignant melanoma showed overall higher immune cell infiltration as compared to BrM from breast carcinoma. RNA sequencing-based immune cell deconvolution revealed gene expression signatures indicative of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in subsets of BrM from lung cancer and melanoma. This finding was corroborated by multiplex immunofluorescence staining of immune cells in BrM tissue sections. Detection of TLS signatures was associated with prolonged survival after BrM diagnosis in lung cancer patients. Our findings highlight the cellular diversity of the tumor immune microenvironment in BrM of different cancer types and suggest a role of TLS formation for BrM patient outcome.

• Identification of HER2-positive breast cancer molecular subtypes with potential clinical implications in the ALTTO clinical trial

  In HER2-positive breast cancer, clinical outcome and sensitivity to HER2-targeted therapies are influenced by both tumor and microenvironment features. However, we are currently unable to depict the molecular heterogeneity of this disease with sufficient granularity. Here, by performing gene expression profiling in HER2-positive breast cancers from patients receiving adjuvant trastuzumab in the ALTTO clinical trial, we identified and characterized five molecular subtypes associated with the risk of distant recurrence: immune-enriched (IM), proliferative/metabolic-enriched (P/Met), mesenchymal/stroma-enriched (Mes/S), luminal (LUM), and ERBB2-enrichedERBB2-dependent (ERBB2-EERBB2-D). We next validated the biological profiles of the subtypes and explored their prognostic/predictive value in external cohorts, namely the NeoALTTO trial, SCAN-B, I-SPY2, METABRIC and TCGA. IM tumors presented better survival outcomes, in contrast to Mes/S and P/Met tumors, while LUM tumors and ERBB2-EERBB2-D were characterized by low and high rates of pathological complete response, respectively. Of note, these molecular subtypes provide the rationale for treatment approaches leveraging the heterogeneous biology of HER2-positive breast cancer.

• 3D genome topology distinguishes molecular subgroups of medulloblastoma

  Medulloblastoma (MB) has four molecular subtypes, but their 3D genome architecture differences are unclear. We used in situ Hi-C on 28 surgical specimens and a patient-derived xenograft to reconstruct the 3D genome architecture of MB subtypes, finding that topologically associating domain (TAD) insulation scores could distinguish MB subtypes.
