• Single-cell bisulfite-seq analyses of 29-year-old prospermatogonia and adult spermatogonial stem cell

  To examine the timing of de novo methylation during human male germ cell development, single-cell bisulfite sequencing was carried out on human germ cells. FACS-purified Prospermatogonia from three teratoma patients (1-year-0-month, 1-year-5-months, and 1-year-8-months) and spermatogonial stem cells from a 29-year-old obstructive azoospermia patient with normal spermatogenesis were analyzed. The three 1-year-old prospermatogonia exhibited average methylation levels of 41.4% (23.1-54.4%, 1-year-0-month), 53.1% (32.0-62.4%, 1-year-5-months), and 32.6% (10.2-54.7%, 1-year-8-months). In contrast, adult spermatogonia showed an average level of 75.7% (73.3-76.8%). Although teratoma may have influenced the developmental timing of prospermatogonia within the same testes, prospermatogonia across all 1-year-old samples remained in an intermediate phase of DNA methylation establishment.

• Genomic subtypes and cellular phenotypes of high-grade endometrial carcinoma

  Based on the mechanism of carcinogenesis, endometrial cancer (EC) is classified into two major types, Type I and Type II. Type I EC is characterized by G1/G2 histology, accounting for about 80% of all uterine carcinomas. On the other hand, Type II EC, which often develops after menopause, is estrogen-independent and consists of serous and clear cell carcinomas. G3 EC is often classified as a Type II EC, but the pathogenesis is thought to be a mixture of estrogen-dependent and estrogen-independent carcinogenesis. We will conduct an integrative genomic analysis to clarify the pathogenesis of Type II EC and redefine its classification by combining genomic status with cell phenotypes reflected in gene expression profiles.

• Whole-exome sequencing of uterine carcinosarcoma in a young woman with HBOC (tumor-normal pair)

  This study deposits controlled-access human genomic data (tumor-normal whole-exome sequencing) from a patient with uterine carcinosarcoma and hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome, to support reproducibility of reported genomic findings.

• Molecular Characterization of Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Lung by Multilayered Omics Analysis

  Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is a rare lung cancer type with a very poor prognosis. The underlying molecular features remain unclear. Here, we conducted a multi-omics analysis of 27 LCNEC cases along with 7 small cell lung carcinoma and aimed to propose new classification by extracting genomic and transcriptomic features in LCNEC, leading to the elucidation of the therapeutic approaches.

• Whole exome and ChIP sequencing of external auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma (EACSCC)

  We performed whole exome sequencing of the primary tumor tissues, peripheral blood mononuclear cells from an EACSCC patient as well as the cell line established from the primary tumor tissues. We performed ChIP sequencing of primary tumor tissues and noncancerous ear skin tissues from EACSCC patients as well.

• Single cell atlas of large B-cell lymphoma

  Large B-cell lymphomas (LBCL) are clinically and biologically heterogeneous lymphoid malignancies, shaped by complex tumor and microenvironments that play a critical role in disease progression. There has been no direct and comprehensive single-cell characterization of tumor microenvironment in LBCL that simultaneously captures lymphoid, myeloid, and stromal populations across a sufficiently large cohort to reveal reproducible and biologically meaningful patterns. Here, we performed single-nucleus multiome profiling, coupled with bulk DNA and RNA sequencing, on 232 tumor and control biopsies to comprehensively map cell subpopulations of LBCL. Through this integrative approach, we identified Lymphoma Microenvironment Archetype Profiles (LymphoMAPs)—distinct, reproducible patterns defined by the co-occurrence of functionally specialized cell subsets. We further characterized the cell-cell communication pathways that shape these transcriptional phenotypes within archetypes. Importantly, we discovered associations between specific LymphoMAPs and clinical and molecular features of LBCL, including response to CD19 CAR T-cell therapy. Our study provides a valuable resource of lymphoid, myeloid, and non-hematopoietic cell states in LBCL and offers a framework for understanding how the abundance and functional state of cells within the tumor microenvironment may drive inter-patient variability in therapeutic outcome.

• Evolution of an adenomacarcinoma in response to selection by targeted kinase inhibitors

  Background - Adenocarcinomas of the tongue are rare and represent the minority (20-25%) of salivary gland tumors affecting the tongue. We investigated the utility of massively parallel sequencing to characterize an adenocarcinoma of the tongue, before and after treatment. Results - In the pre-treatment tumor we identified 7,629 genes within regions of copy number gain. 1,078 genes exhibited increased expression relative to the blood and unrelated tumors and four genes contained somatic protein-coding mutations. Our analysis suggested the tumor cells were driven by the RET oncogene. Genes whose protein products are targeted by the RET inhibitors sunitinib and sorafenib correlated with being amplified and or highly expressed. Consistent with our observations administration of sunitinib was associated with stable disease lasting 4 months, after which the lung lesions began to grow. Administration of sorafenib and sulindac provided disease stabilization for an additional 3 months after which the cancer progressed and new lesions appeared. A recurring metastasis possessed 7,288 genes within copy number amplicons, 385 genes exhibiting increased expression relative to other tumours and 9 new somatic protein coding mutations. The observed mutations and amplif ications were consistent with therapeutic resistance arising through activation of the MAPK and AKT pathways. Conclusions - We conclude that complete genomic characterization of a rare tumour has the potential to aid in clinical decision making and identifying therapeutic approaches where no established treatment protocols exist. These results also provide direct in-vivo genomic evidence for mutational evolution within a tumor under drug selection and potential mechanisms of drug resistance accrual.

• ARID1A Mutations in Endometriosis-Associated Ovarian Carcinomas

  We have sequenced the whole transcriptomes of 18 ovarian clear-cell carcinomas and 1 ovarian clear-cell carcinoma cell line and found somatic mutations in ARID1A (the AT-rich interactive domain 1A [SWI-like] gene) in 6 of the samples. ARID1A encodes BAF250a, a key component of the SWI–SNF chromatin remodeling complex. We sequenced ARID1A in an additional 210 ovarian carcinomas and a second ovarian clear-cell carcinoma cell line and measured BAF250a expression by means of immunohistochemical analysis in an additional 455 ovarian carcinomas
