• Deciphering craniopharyngioma subtypes: Single-cell analysis of tumor microenvironment and immune networks

  Craniopharyngiomas, including both adamantinomatous (ACP) and squamous papillary (PCP) types, present significant challenges in treatment due to their proximity to critical pituitary structures. In this study, we conducted a single-cell RNA analysis to examine the tumor microenvironments (TME) of ACP and PCP. Single-cell clustering revealed a wide range of cell types, which were further categorized based on gene expression patterns. For ACP, these categories included developing epithelia, calcification, and immune response, while PCP showed developing epithelia, cell cycle, and immune response as prominent categories. Subclustering analysis unveiled different types of immune cells in both ACP and PCP TMEs, with specific patterns of immune responses. Interestingly, smaller tumors were associated with particular immune cell ratios. Furthermore, we identified specific cell-to-cell interactions within the tumor cells. In conclusion, our study has led to the development of a comprehensive cell atlas, shedding light on the molecular characteristics and intricate interplay of immune cells within the TMEs of ACP and PCP.

• Full length cDNA-selective sequencing of human frontal lobe

  To catalog RNA isoforms in the human brain, we applied full-length cDNA-selective sequencing (FLeCS-seq) to RNA samples extracted from the normal frontal lobe of a glioma patient. Short-read RNA-seq and long-read SMART-seq were also performed as control datasets. Additionally, we utilized ultralong-read and short-read whole-genome sequencing to phase heterozygous SNPs. By integrating these phased SNPs with FLeCS-seq reads, we identified allele-specific expressed isoforms.

• RNA-seq of adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models treated with the MALT1 protease inhibitor CRD-1441551

  To elucidate the therapeutic effect of MALT1 protease inhibition in adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), we performed RNA-seq on tumor tissues from five ATL patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. NOG mice engrafted with each PDX model were treated with the MALT1 protease inhibitor CRD-1441551 or vehicle for 21 days, in biological triplicate (n = 3 per condition; 30 samples in total). Mouse-derived reads were removed and the remaining human reads were aligned to the human reference genome (hg19). These data underlie the gene-expression analyses reported in the associated publication.

• Analysis of Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma Expressing POU2F3 Using WGS

  Lung LCNEC (Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma) has a poor prognosis, and no effective treatment has yet been established. We have found that the tuft-cell marker POU2F3 is specifically expressed in some LCNEC cases. By performing Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) on samples from 10 LCNEC patients, we aim to identify changes characteristic of LCNEC expressing POU2F3 and explore new classifications and treatment options for LCNEC.

• Paediatric Hepatic International Tumour Trial (JPLT2: PHITT)

  Hepatoblastoma (HBL) is the most common primary liver tumor in children. Despite their diversity in histopathological phenotype and clinical outcome, the underlying molecular aberrations have not been fully understood. Here we describe a comprehensive landscape of genomic, epigenomic, and transcriptomic heterogeneity among the 163 cases of HBLs and transitional liver cell tumors (TLCTs) collected in the multicenter clinical trial JPLT-2. The total numbers of mutational events in HBLs are very few (0.52 SNVs/Mb on exonic regions) but show a positive correlation with the age of onset. While dysregulation of Wnt-pathway related genes was observed (somatic deletion or mutations of CTNNB1 and germline or somatic mutations of APC) in 83.6% of the HBL cases, TERT promoter mutations are mainly in the elderly HBLs (> 8 years old), meeting with the proposed criteria of TLCT. These TLCT cases are clustered in the hypermethylated epigenotype in promoter and enhancer regions. Copy number analyses also revealed recurrent 11p15.5 UPD/LOHs including the IGF2/H19 region (31.6%), focal deletions in 4q35 (15.8%) and focal amplifications in 2q24.3 (7.0%) predominantly in the child and infant HBLs. Motif enrichment analysis of the specific hypomethylated enhancers in these HBL subtypes suggests specific binding of ASCL2, the regulatory transcription factor for definitive endoderm and digestive systems. Transcriptome and histochemical analysis revealed that ASCL2 is upregulated not in HCC and TLCT but in child and infant HBL, suggesting their ?cell of origin? derived from the premature hepatoblast with high proliferative potential such as intestinal epithelial cells. Systematic molecular profiling of HBL will provide a fundamental understanding of hepatoblast carcinogenesis and clues for risk stratification.

• Identification and Characterization of Cancer Mutations in Japanese LungAdenocarcinoma without Sequencing of Normal Tissue Counterparts

  We analyzed whole-exome sequencing data from 97 Japanese lung adenocarcinomapatients and identified several putative cancer-related genes and pathways. Particularly, we observed that cancer-related mutation patterns were significantly different between different ethnic groups. As previously reported, mutations in the EGFR gene were characteristic to Japanese, while those in the KRAS gene were more frequent in Caucasians. Furthermore, during the course of this analysis, we found that cancer-specific somatic mutations can be detected without sequencing normal tissue counterparts. 64% of the germline variants could be excluded using a total of 217 external Japanese exome datasets. We also show that a similar approach may beused for other three ethnic groups, although the discriminative power depends on the ethnic group. We demonstrate that the ATM gene and the PAPPA2 gene could be identified as cancer prognosis related genes. By bypassing the sequencing of normaltissue counterparts, this approach provides a useful means of not only reducing the time and cost of sequencing but also analyzing archive samples, for which normal tissue counterparts are not available.

• Global Architecture of anti-Tumor B-Cell Immunity against Gastric Cancer

  Recent successes in tumor immunotherapies have warranted the importance of tumor immunity. Compared to the T-cell immunity, B-cell immune system in cancer is largely elusive. Here we immunogenetically profiled tumor-infiltrating B-cell and T-cell repertoires for exome- characterized diffuse-type gastric carcinoma (DGC), which is remarkable for its B-cell infiltrations, unraveling previously un-defined architectures of B-cell immunity and its interplays with T-cell immunity in cancer. We also performed transcriptome analysis to enumerate the proportions of tumor-infiltrating immune cells in the gastric cancer environment .

• CAGE analysis for non-small cell lung carcinoma

  Targeted therapies based on the molecular and histological features of cancer types are becoming standard practice. The most effective regimen in lung cancers is different between squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma (AD). Therefore a precise diagnosis is crucial, but this has been difficult, particularly for poorly differentiated SCC (PDSCC) and AD without a lepidic growth component (non-lepidic AD). Biomarkers enabling a precise diagnosis are therefore urgently needed. To achieve this goal, we performed CAGE (Cap Analysis of Gene Expression) to quantify promoter activities on 97 frozen tissues from surgically resected lung cancers (22 SCC and 75 AD). The result was followed up by by immunohistochemical analysis (IHC) in an independent group.

• The genetic analysis of circulating tumor DNA in blood of the digestive cancer patients to investigate the prognostic factors of metastasis and reccurence.

  A Darwinian evolutionary shift occurred early in the neutral evolution of advanced colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and copy number aberrations (CNA) were essential in the transition from adenoma to carcinoma. Subsequent to the primary evolution, we now focus on the evolutionary principle of the genome to foster postoperative recurrence of CRC. SO, We compared CNA, single nucleotide variance (SNV), RNA sequences between 8 primary and 11 metastatic sites from 10 CRCR cases.
