• Establishing stable brain tumor stem cell lines and translational research for new treatments

  Choroid plexus carcinomas (CPCs) have dismal prognoses with limited clinical options. A lack of characterized cell lines has hindered the development of new treatment strategies. Here, we perform whole genome sequencing analyses of two cell lines established from CPCs. Whole genome sequencing (WGS),was performed in CCHE-45 and NGT131 cell lines. Both cell lines harbored pathogenic TP53 point mutations; CCHE-45 additionally displayed TP53 loss. Furthermore, alterations of the NOTCH and WNT pathways were also detected in both cell lines. Two protein-coding gene fusions, BZW2-URGCP, and CTTNBP2-ERBB4, mutations of two oncodrivers, GBP-4 and KRTAP-12-2, and several copy number alterations were observed in CCHE-45, but not NGT131. The discovered difference's importance and implications highlight the possible diversity of choroid plexus carcinoma and call for additional research to fully understand disease pathogenesis. Whole genome sequencing revealed that the two choroid plexus carcinoma cell lines shared TP53 mutations and other common pathway alterations and activation of NOTCH and WNT pathways. Noticeable differences were also observed. These cell lines can serve as valuable models to propose new treatments in these rare but deadly brain tumors.

• Project for Development of Innovative Research on Cancer Therapeutics;Shuttle system between petient-derived xenograft and ex vivo culture for innovative platform of evaluating drug sensitivity.

  We developed CTOS (cancer tissue-originated spheroid) panel covering diversity among patients for colorectal cancer, lung cancer and cervical small cell carcinoma. We then carried out exome sequence analysis of tumor tissues, cell lines and CTOS derived from patients to validate qualitative changes in preparation, culture, cell line, transplantation and passage of CTOS pathologically, biochemically, molecular biologically.

• Molecular profiling for a patient with lipoblastoma-like tumor of the vulva

  Lipoblastoma-like tumors of the vulva (LLTVs) are exceptionally rare indolent adipocytic mesenchymal tumors arising in adults. Only total 19 cases have been reported previously and has just been categorized as mesenchymal tumours of the lower genital tract on the latest WHO classification of tumours, 5th edition. This is the first case of LLTV assessed for RNA-seq, WES, and WGS by next generation sequencing.

• Whole exome sequencing and RNA sequencing of cervical cancer

  We designed this study to identify molecular markers involved in the development and prognosis of cervical adenocarcinoma. In this study, we would like to elucidate the molecular biological characteristics of cervical adenocarcinoma in relation to the carcinogenesis of other cervical cancers (squamous cell carcinoma), vaginal and vulvar cancers. In addition, some squamous cell carcinomas of the cervix develop at a young age and have a poor prognosis. Furthermore, small cell carcinoma of the cervix also progresses rapidly and has a poor prognosis, making the establishment of diagnostic and therapeutic methods an urgent task.

• Identification of the genes associated with EGFR-mutant lung cancer

  To gain an insight into the genetic factors underlying the carcinogenesis of EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma, we sequenced the exomes in peripheral-blood DNA from the patients.

• Multi-omics analysis of pediatric high-risk neuroblastoma

  Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid malignancy among children originating from undifferentiated neural crest cells. Despite recent intensified treatment, high-risk patients still show a high mortality rate. To explore a new therapeutic strategy, we performed integrated analysis in 30 neuroblastoma cases.

• Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing for high-grade glioma

  We conducted whole-genome bisulfite sequencing to delineate base-resolution methylomes of gliomas harboring G34R mutation as well as those harboring K27M and no mutations in H3F3A. Comparative analysis of these three glioma subgroups revealed that G34 subgroup exhibited lower global methylation levels, comparable CpG island (CGI) methylation levels, and compromised hypermethylation of telomere-proximal CGIs, compared to the other two subgroups. Genomic regions specifically hypermethylated in G34 subgroup were enriched for CGIs. CGIs with G34V-mutated histone H3.3 in the glioma cell line KNS-42 were hypermethylated compared to those without it, suggesting a correlation between G34-mutated histone H3.3 in CGI hypermethylation.
