• Epigenome Wide DNA Methylation Study for Osteoporosis Risk

  Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD). The advancement of high-throughput technologies and integrative approaches provided an opportunity for deciphering the mechanisms underlying osteoporosis. In this study, we generated genomic (from whole blood DNA), transcriptomic and methylomic (from peripheral blood monocytes, PBMs), and serum metabolomic datasets from 143 premenopausal Caucasian females aged 25-40 years, including 74 with relatively high hip BMD (Z scores ≥ 0.8) and 69 with relatively low hip BMD (Z scores ≤ -0.8). The BMD Z score was defined as the number of standard deviations a subject's BMD differed from the mean BMD of their age-, gender-, and ethnicity-matched population. We identified differentially methylated CpG sites (DMCs) in peripheral blood monocytes (PBMs) at the whole methylome level between premenopausal women with high BMD and those with low BMD and deciphered how the DMCs influence the BMD variation through affecting the expression of the relevant genes. We also performed differential gene expression and metabolic analysis to assess their biological interaction and causal mechanisms. Our study provided novel insights into the pathogenesis of osteoporosis.

• Advancing fast in the analysis of circulating tumour DNA

  In cancer patients, solid tumours also release DNA fragments into the blood, and they are called Circulating Tumours DNA (ctDNA). Nowadays, the standard procedure for cancer monitoring is analysis of surgically obtained biopsies. They generate a big amount of material, but the operation is highly invasive and provide medical doctors with a single-time snapshot of the tumours, which are often highly changeable. Analysis of ctDNA, on the other hand, can provide continuous information regarding the tumour itself without the need of invasive procedures. This is why interest in this method is growing, and with it, the need for its technological optimization. Guanhua Zhu and colleagues, at the Genome Institute of Singapore, developed a methodology to quantify ctDNA burden, which means to estimate the amount of tumours derived circulating DNA among all cell-free DNA in the blood of individuals. Their work, published in Nature Communications in april 2021 and summarized in a sketch below, uses state-of-the art methods to analyse cfDNA degradation patterns at promoters and exon regions, to discern it from the DNA coming from the tumours. The bright point of their approach is that simultaneously enable for profiling of actionable cancer mutations and quantitative estimation of ctDNA burden. Their sequencing data of ctDNA has been deposited in the EGA under the accession number EGAS00001004657. This study sums up to a total of 37 of cfDNA and 36 about ctDNA present up to date in the EGA archive. The existence of cfDNA was firstly described back in 2002, while the use of ctDNA analysis in the oncological field exploded only after 2016. The approach is rapidly evolving, moving in parallel with the ever-improving sequencing technologies. Especially, the possibility to obtain high quality sequences from minimal amount of material is a crucial factor. Being able to alleviate cancer patients of disturbing and often slow-recovery procedures, while at the same time improving the quality of diagnosis and disease monitoring seems like a lot to ask. Thankfully, we are blessed with brilliant and dedicated scientists from all around the world who collaborate to make this a reality, sharing their results, knowledge and data.

• Liquid biopsy-based minimal residual disease monitoring for early risk stratification and decision-making in advanced non-small cell lung cancer

  Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring shows promise for risk stratification and decision-making in cancer patients. However, factors like background noise from non-tumor DNA, clonal haematopoiesis, and non-shedding tumors may complicate manual interpretation and limit its clinical application. In this proof-of-concept study in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), we developed an algorithm that automatically classifies serial cell-free DNA (cfDNA) samples, thereby enabling reliable and reproducible interpretation, and preventing time-consuming manual interpretation in approximately 75% of patients. Importantly, application of the algorithm allowed early risk stratification and decision-making, specifically identifying approximately 35% of patients with short-term clinical benefit and approximately 25% of patients who may potentially benefit from treatment escalation. Simultaneous serum tumor marker (STM) monitoring further improved risk stratification and decision-making in our study, enabling accurate identification of all patients with a clinical benefit of at least one year.

• The dataset of Southeast Borneo individuals (Banjar and Ngaju ethnic groups) was used as comparative data to determine the Asian parental population of the Malagasy. Our study found strong support for an origin of the Asian ancestry of Malagasy among the Banjar.

  Malagasy genetic diversity results from an exceptional proto-globalisation process that took place over a thousand years ago across the Indian Ocean. Previous efforts to locate the Asian origin of Malagasy have highlighted Borneo broadly as a potential source, but so far no firm source populations have been identified. Here, we have generated genome-wide data from two Southeast Borneo populations, the Banjar and the Ngaju, together with published data compiled from populations across the Indian Ocean region. We find strong support for an origin of the Asian ancestry of Malagasy among the Banjar. This group emerged from the long-standing presence of a Malay Empire trading post in Southeast Borneo, which favoured admixture between the Malay and an autochthonous Borneo group, the Ma’anyan. Reconciling genetic, historical and linguistic data, we show that the Banjar, in Malay-led voyages, were the most probable Asian source among the analysed groups in the founding of the Malagasy gene pool.

• An instructive role for IL7RA in the development of human B-cell precursor leukemia

  Kinase signaling fuels growth of B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). Yet its role in leukemia initiation is unclear and has not been shown in primary human hematopoietic cells. We previously described activating mutations in interleukin-7 receptor alpha (IL7RA) in poor-prognosis “ph-like” BCP-ALL. Here we show that expression of activated mutant IL7RA in human CD34+ hematopoietic cells creates a preleukemic state in transplanted NOD/LtSz-scid IL2Rγnull mice, characterized by persistence of self-renewing Pro-B cells with non-productive V(D)J gene rearrangements. Preleukemic CD34+CD10highCD19+ cells evolved to a BCP-ALL with spontaneously acquired CDKN2A deletions as commonly observed in primary human BCP-ALL. CRISPR mediated silencing of CDKN2A in primary human CD34+ cells transduced with activated IL7RA resulted in robust development of BCP-ALLs in-vivo. Thus, we demonstrate for the first time that constitutive activation of IL7RA can initiate preleukemia in primary human hematopoietic progenitors and cooperates with CDKN2A silencing in progression into BCP-ALL.

• Whole Exome Sequencing of One Nuclear Family with Non-syndromic Sensorineural Hearing Loss

  Our goal is to find genes responsible for non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. Blood samples were collected from the JS6 family affected with hearing loss. The family is of Caribbean Hispanic ethnicity. Family JS6 consisted of two deaf siblings, JS6.001 (Male) and JS6.002 (Female) and healthy parents, JS6.100 (mother) and JS6.200 (father). The siblings had no other medical findings. Audiometry tests and Rinne and Weber tuning fork tests identified sensorineural hearing loss in the two siblings. We performed whole exome sequencing of the four individuals and identified a recessive mutation, p.(Arg186Trp), in the CIB2 gene in the two affected siblings. Both parents were unaffected carriers.

• Next Generation Mendelian Genetics: Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis

  The NHGRI Next Generation Mendelian Genetics project uses exome resequencing to identify variants in unsolved Mendelian diseases. Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (fHLH) is a serious immune disorder that results from defective cytotoxic lymphocyte function. Autosomal recessive mutations in PFP1, UNC13D, STX11, STBP2, or RAB27, and hemizygous mutations in SH2D1A or BIRC4, account for known causes of the disease, but 30-70% of patients in North America lack a known genetic etiology. This project was designed to identify additional genetic abnormalities from HLH patients. The exome sequences of four unrelated individuals with a diagnosis of HLH, but without mutations in genes known to cause disease, were obtained by massively parallel DNA sequencing.

• Breast Cancer Risk Pathways

  We sought to identify genomic variants that differed between individuals who developed familial breast cancer and individuals who had a family history of breast cancer but who had not developed breast cancer. We aggregated these data at the pathway level to identify pathways that play a role in familial breast cancer development. We profiled peripheral blood cells, extracted DNA, and sequenced the DNA using exome-capture sequencing to identify genomic variants in these samples. For 34 of the 35 samples, we also profiled peripheral blood using Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array microarrays. Those data can be found in Gene Expression Omnibus under accession identifier GSE47862.

• Genome-wide chromatin accessibility profiling of primary human glomerular and kidney cortex tubular outgrowth cultures

  We generated primary cultures from mechanically isolated kidney glomeruli (filtration unit of the nephron) which are composed of podocytes and mesangial cells. In parallel, we generated primary kidney cortex tubule cell cultures, which are composed primarily of proximal tubule cells. Early passage cultures of these two cell types were subjected to chromatin accessibility profiling (DNase-Seq) and gene expression profiling (RNA-Seq). We found thousands of dynamically regulated enhancers in both cell types that potentially regulate nearby and distal target genes that are differentially expressed. These data will be useful for understanding the epigenomic regulation of gene transcription in key kidney cell types.

• Loss of IFN-gamma Signaling in Tumor Cells Associates with Primary Resistance to Anti-CTLA-4 Therapy

  Antibody blockade of the inhibitory CTLA-4 pathway has led to clinical benefit in a subset of patients with metastatic melanoma. Anti-CTLA-4 enhances T cell responses, including production of IFN-γ, which is a critical cytokine for host immune responses. However, the role of IFN-γ signaling in tumor cells in the setting of anti-CTLA-4 therapy remains unknown. Here we demonstrate that, based upon exome sequencing data, patients identified as non-responders to anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab) harbor a much higher genomic defects in the IFN-γ pathway genes than melanoma patients who had clinical response to ipilimumab therapy.

• DNA methylation in rhabdomyosarcoma PDX and PDX-derived primary cells

  Conditions to maintain primary tumor cells in culture are largely unknown for most tumor entities including rhabdomyosarcoma. In this collaborative study with Dr. Beat Schäfer's laboratory, we performed DNA methylation profiles of rhabdomyosarcoma patient-derived xenograft (PDX) and their matching PDX-derived primary cells (PPC), where the PPCs were developed and maintained under optimized culture conditions. We further compared DNA methylation profiles between these PDXs and PPCs. Exome sequencing and copy number analysis between these rhabdomyosarcoma PDXs and PPXs were also carried out. These analyses may help us to evaluate a feasibility of in vitro profiling of primary rhabdomyosarcoma cells from a genomic perspective.

• DNA Methylation age and mortality in the Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936

  The study examined the association between DNA methylation age and mortality. Methylation age was estimated in 4 cohorts (including the Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936) and related to subsequent time-to-death. Across all four cohorts there was a strong correlation between predicted methylation age and chronological age. For individuals with a 5 year age acceleration (DNA methylation age - chronological age = 5), there was a meta analysed hazard ratio of mortality of 1.21 [1.14, 1.29]. Phenotype data associated with the study are available through dbGaP, the methylation raw data are available through the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA; accession number EGAS00001000910).

• Genomics of Relapsed Small Cell Lung Cancer Progression

  Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for nearly 15% of all patients with lung cancer. Though the response to initial therapy is favorable in many patients, a majority of patients go on to develop recurrent disease which is very difficult to treat. The response rates to chemotherapy are very low and most patients succumb to relapsed SCLC within a few months. Virtually no progress has been made in the treatment of SCLC in the last three decades. In order to better understand the molecular alterations in relapsed SCLC, we have generated exome and RNA sequence from normal, primary tumor and relapse tissues of SCLC patients.

  This is a case pharmacogenetic study of bronchodilator drug response (Albuterol) among racially admixed Latino children with asthma between the ages of 8-40. Lung function testing was performed using the KoKo PFT system and each participant was administered albuterol dependent on age. Participants under 16 years of age, were administered 2 puffs of albuterol from a standard metered dose inhaler and 4 puffs for participants over 16 years old. The overall goal is to identify genetic factors which are predictive of drug response in children with asthma. The principal tools include a questionnaire and biological specimen collection. Participants with asthma have physician-diagnosed asthma, symptoms and medications.

• NHLBI TOPMed: Childhood Asthma Management Program (CAMP)

  The Childhood Asthma Management Program (CAMP) was designed to evaluate whether continuous, long-term treatment (over a period of four to six years) with either an inhaled corticosteroid (budesonide) or an inhaled noncorticosteroid drug (nedocromil) safely produces an improvement in lung growth as compared with treatment for symptoms only (with albuterol and, if necessary, prednisone, administered as needed). The primary outcome in the study was lung growth, as assessed by the change in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1, expressed as a percentage of the predicted value) after the administration of a bronchodilator. Secondary outcomes included the degree of airway responsiveness, morbidity, physical growth, and psychological development.

• Characterizing the secretome of licensed hiPSC-derived MSCs

  Although mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from primary tissues have been successfully applied in the clinic, their expansion capabilities are limited and results are variable. MSCs derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiMSCs) are expected to overcome these limitations and serve as a reproducible and sustainable cell source. We have explored characteristics and therapeutic potential of hiMSCs in comparison to hBMSCs. Our data qualify hiMSCs as a promising source for cell therapy and/or cell-based therapeutic products. Additionally, the herewith generated database will add to our understanding of the mode of action of regenerative cell-based therapies and could be used to identify relevant potency markers.

• Tracing the molecular route to progression in miRNA biogenesis-defective thyroid lesions

  Alterations in the DICER1 and DGCR8 microprocessor genes confer risk to the development of benign and malignant thyroid lesions. The involvement of 2 miRNA biogenesis genes in benign and malignant thyroid tumors highlights the key role of miRNAs in the thyroid gland. We traced the progression from benignity to malignancy in DICER1- and DGCR8-mutated thyroid lesions by performing a multiomic characterization of these lesions aiming to uncover unique features characterizing either form for potential use as biomarkers. This multiomic characterization included whole exome sequencing (WES) (N=18), miRNA profiling (N=38), spatial transcriptomics (N=2) and/or methylome (N=281).

  We performed scRNAseq analysis of CD8 T cells infiltrating the bladder and tumor of 4 non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer patients, before and after BCG treatment. In order to identify tumor-specific T cells, we selected CD8 T cells that were enriched in the tumor of the patient. We also selected CD8 T cells appearing in the bladder after BCG treatment, with the hypothesis that BCG treatment stimulates tumor-specific CD8 T cells. Next, we cloned the TCR of these T cells in a Jurkat cell line and tested these TCR for recognition of tumor-specific antigens.

• Whole genome sequencing data of paediatric T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL)

  T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy accounting for approximately 15–25% of pediatric and adult ALL cases. Despite significant therapeutic improvements over the last decade, the prognosis of T-ALL remains less favorable than that of B-ALL, with 5-year EFS and OS of around 76–82% and 80–88%, respectively, depending on the treatment protocol used. T-ALL patients often suffer from failure of induction therapy or early relapse, which is associated with a dismal prognosis. Approximately 10–15% of T-ALL patients experience relapse, and survival after relapse is poor.

• Multi-modal spatial characterization of tumor-immune microenvironments in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

  We have leveraged spatial transcriptomics together with proteomic and genomic analysis to investigate the spatial immunology and pathobiology of DLBCL. We define distinct cellular niches that differ in frequency across tumors, related to both Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection status and the anatomical site of the tumor, and show that residence within different cellular niches is associated with divergent functional states of T-cells and tumor B-cells due to different patterns of cell-cell communication. This provides a framework for understanding stereotyped patterns of spatial organization in DLBCL and immunological interactions associated with heterogeneity in immune cell infiltration and function across patients.

• Extracellular vesicles from TGF-β-activated cancer-associated fibroblasts remodel the tumor microenvironment through EV surface-associated proteins.

  In this study, we explored the function of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from non-activated cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and TGF-β-activated CAFs. We tested these two types of EVs on other cell types in the tumor environment, including cancer cells, CD8+ T cells, and CAFs. We further explored the protein cargo in EVs altered by TGF-β treatment using quantitative proteomics, and selected several highly upregulated proteins for further analysis. We found that the majority of these proteins were presented on the EV surface, and they regulated the target cells in an EV-cell contact dependent manner.

• Gene expression profiling by RNAseq of multiple cell types derived from patients with LSD1 mutations and healthy controls, and in isogenic cell lines with LSD1 mutation introduced by CRISPR-Cas9

  Cell lines (fibroblasts, reprogrammed from them hiPSCs and differentiated from hiPSCs endoderm, mesoderm and neuronal cells) derived from two male CPRF patients carrying distinct LSD1 mtuations and their healthy fathers as controls were subjected to gene expression analysis by bulk RNAseq to identify mis-regulated genes. Some cell lines were subject to treatment with HDAC inhibitor valproic acid (VPA) or DMSO as controls and also underwent RNAseq analysis. Two isogenic LSD1 mutant hiPSC lines with CRISPR-edited Family B LSD1 mutation were also used for RNAseq analysis (after endoderm differentiation, with or without VPA treatment).

• Single-cell/single-nucleus RNA-seq of Embryonal Tumor with Multilayered Rosettes (ETMR)

  Embryonal tumor with multilayered rosettes (ETMR) is a pediatric brain tumor with dismal prognosis. We analyzed eleven ETMR patient samples using single-cell transcriptomics. We reveal a spatially distinct cellular hierarchy that spans highly proliferative neural stem-like cells and more differentiated neuron-like cells. C19MC is predominantly expressed in stem-like cells and controls a transcriptional network governing stemness and lineage commitment. Systematic analysis of receptor-ligand interactions between malignant cell types reveals FGFR and NOTCH signaling as oncogenic pathways. Our study provides fundamental insights into ETMR pathobiology and a powerful rationale for more effective targeted therapies.

• Whole genome sequencing data of pediatric hypodiploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  Hypodiploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a rare subtype of B-cell ALL characterized by chromosome number < 45 , encompassing near-haploid (24–29 chromosomes) and low-hypodiploid (30–39 chromosomes) subgroups. These subgroups display distinct genetic landscapes, including Ras and receptor tyrosine kinase pathway alterations in near-haploid ALL, and frequent IKZF2, RB1, and germline TP53 alterations in low-hypodiploid ALL. Clinically, hypodiploid ALL is associated with dismal prognosis, with 5-year overall survival rates often between 50-70% in children and markedly worse in adults. Despite advances in risk stratification and MRD-guided therapy, allogeneic stem cell transplantation remains the current standard recommendation for affected patients.

• Heritable pulmonary arterial hypertension - new genetic findings and environmental triggers

  Whole exome seqeuncing data were analysed for a total of 13 family members of five heritable pulmonary arterial hypertension (HPAH) families to identify a disease causing variant. In a first step, variants only present in affected family members and absent in healthy relatives of the respective family were selected. Subseqeuntly, due to incomplete penetrance of genes in PAH, the analysis was extended to variants present both in affected and healthy individuals. Heterozygous variants were primarily investigated followed by homozygous, compound heterozygous, and bi-allelic variants of interest. This study led to the identification of rare deleterious variants in three out of five families.

• The landscape of Usher syndrome-associated transcript isoforms in the human neural retina

  Usher syndrome is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder characterized by the combination of progressive loss of visual function due to retinitis pigmentosa, sensorineural hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction in a subset of cases. Usher syndrome is clinically and genetically heterogeneous. To date, eleven genes have been identified that are associated with Usher syndrome. It is known that these genes express multiple isoforms, however, for most of the known isoforms their relative importance in the human retina is unknown. To fill this gap, using PacBio long-read mRNA sequencing we aimed to provide an overview of the Usher syndrome transcripts in the human retina.

  We use cardiac and pericardial fluid biopsies collected during open-heart surgery in control, ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and myocardial infarction context. For each sample, single-nuclei RNA sequencing experiment is performed. We also perform spatial transcriptomics on the heart samples. We annotate the cells in major cell types, in addition to subtypes annotation of vascular and immune cells. The disease annotation enables us to reveal substantial differences in gene expression at the cell subpopulation levels.

• Clinical evaluation of long read sequencing-based episignature detection in developmental disorders

  Some developmental disorders (DD) are marked by specific genome-wide methylation changes, known as episignatures, which can support diagnosis and reveal underlying mechanisms. Current methods rely on indirect methylation profiling. Here, we assessed whether long-read whole genome sequencing with nanopore technology could directly detect both episignatures and genetic variants. We sequenced forty controls and twenty DD patients, using clustering and dimensional reduction to compare methylome patterns with microarray-based signatures. Our classifiers accurately identified episignatures in 17 of 19 patients with pathogenic variants, matching microarray results. This study shows nanopore sequencing enables comprehensive, haplotype-aware genomic and epigenomic analysis for DD diagnostics.

  Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) arise from hormone-producing cells in the gut, yet the molecular changes driving malignant transformation remain poorly understood. Bulk tissue-based analyses make it challenging to distinguish signals derived from normal cells from those of normal hormone-producing cells. In this study, we analyzed SI-NETs at single-cell resolution and directly compared tumor cells with their corresponding normal hormone-producing counterparts using single-cell RNA sequencing. Tissue samples were obtained from two patients undergoing tumor resection surgery. Cells from corresponding normal intestinal mucosa and SI-NET tumors were isolated using specific markers and analyzed for direct comparison.

• RNA sequencing data of pediatric BCR::ABL1 acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  The BCR::ABL1 fusion results from the t(9;22)(q34;11.2) translocation, also known as the Philadelphia chromosome. In children, BCR::ABL1-positive leukemia is rare, accounting for approximately 3% of cases. The BCR::ABL1 oncoprotein activates multiple signaling pathways that drive cell proliferation. Historically, this subtype was associated with an extremely poor prognosis; however, the incorporation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors into therapy has markedly improved outcomes, with overall survival now approaching 80% in pediatric patients. Relapse most commonly occurs through the emergence of clones harboring kinase domain mutations, yet 30–40% of relapses arise in the absence of such mutations, a phenomenon that remains poorly understood.

• cell-free DNA Target sequencing from primary and recurrent/metastatic breast cancer patients

  Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers occurring worldwide in women. Even after curative treatment based on clinical subtypes according to molecular features, the risk of relapse still remains. Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is an emerging tool for clinical cancer detection to monitor the risk of recurrence, therapeutic efficacy and tumor progression. In occurrence of relapse, genomic, transcriptomic and epigenetic profiles are altered, and reflected in cfDNA fragmentation patterns. In this study, we focus on the transcriptionally dynamic loci associated with therapy resistance in breast cancer, and develop the target sequencing approach using cfDNAs to detect individuals with recurrent/metastatic breast cancer.

• Molecular Characterization of ETMRs

  ETMRs are poorly characterized embryonal brain tumors with a dismal outcome. We collected tumors from 184 ETMR patients and 23 matched recurrences to investigate the genomic landscape of this distinct entity. Tumors without C19MC amplification, the proposed driver, harbor other miRNA related aberrations like DICER1 mutations and amplifications of the MIR17-92 miRNA cluster. All tumors behave molecularly similar and no subgrouping was observed. Whole-genome sequencing revealed an overall low recurrence of SNVs, but highly prevalent R-loop associated genomic instability. Finally, we show that targeting R-loops with TOP1 and PARP inhibitors might be an effective treatment strategy for this deadly disease.

  Objective: Plasma cells (PCs) are terminally differentiated B-lymphocytes that produce antibodies. The lamina propria of the small intestine is particularly rich in PCs. In coeliac disease (CeD) there is infiltration and increased density of PCs in the small intestinal lesion. Many of these PCs produce disease-specific autoantibodies targeting the enzyme transglutaminase 2 (TG2). The plasmacytosis and high numbers of disease-antigen reactive PCs in CeD motivated us to study the transcriptional programme of PCs from coeliac gut lesions.

  Our understanding of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is one of the most common forms of drug-resistant epilepsy in humans. Using RNA- and small RNA-sequencing in parallel, we explored differentially expressed genes in the hippocampus and cortex of MTLE patients who had undergone surgical resection and non-epileptic controls. We found significant enrichment for astrocytic and microglial genes amongst up-regulated genes and down-regulation of neuron-specific genes in the hippocampus of MTLE patients. The transcriptome profile of the small RNAs reflected disease state more robustly than mRNAs, even across brain regions which show very little pathology.

• Molecular profiling of longitudinally observed small colorectal polyps: a cohort study

  Knowledge of the natural history of colorectal adenomas is limited because these lesions are removed upon detection. The few studies in which small adenomas have been left in situ for a limited period of time have shown that most lesions remain stable or even completely vanish. Lesions that have grown in size more often turn out to be advanced adenomas when resected. Specific DNA copy number changes (cancer associated events or CAEs) are associated with progression of adenomas to cancer. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether growth of small colorectal polyps left in situ is associated with specific molecular features.

• Exome-sequencing of two UFM individuals and their Fragile X family members.

  Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a monogenic neurodevelopmental disease often caused by a CGG triplet expansion in the 5’UTR of the FMR1 gene, which results in DNA methylation of the FMR1 promoter and its transcriptional silencing. Exceptional healthy individuals named "unmethylated full mutation (UFM)" have been identified in the families of FX patients. They carry an expanded CGG repeat, but show normal FMR1 epigenetic configuration and expression. In this study we performed exome-sequencing of two UFM individuals and their family members to identify possible genetic mutations responsible for the escape of silencing in the unmethylated full mutation (UFM) phenotype.
