• Identification_of_cardiovascular_biomarkers_through_an_integrative_omics_approach

  Recent GWAS studies have made extensive use of large eQTL data sets to functionallyannotate index SNPs. With a large number of association signals located outside codingregions there has been an intense search among sequence variants affecting geneexpression at the transcriptional level. However, little progress has been made in mappingregulatory variants that affect protein levels at the translational or post-translational level. It isnow possible to undertake a protein QTL scan for focused sets of e.g. oxidized proteins bymass spectrometry. We have established a collaboration with a longitudinal, family-basedstudy in France, the Stanislas cohort, which comprises circa 1000 nuclear families (4,295individuals) and has follow up data for 10 years (three visits). We have undertaken a pilotstudy in a focus set of 257 subjects from 79 families with the aim to integrate GWAS,transcriptomic and DNA methylation data with proteomic data on a set of 100 proteinsmeasured in PBMCs. We have already generated GWAS data using Illumina's core-exomechip as well as DNA methylation profiles with the 450K array. We propose to use RNA seq togenerate transcriptomic data of the corresponding PBMCs.This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Sensitive Monogenic Noninvasive Prenatal Diagnosis by Targeted Haplotyping

  During pregnancy, cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in maternal blood encompasses a small percentage of cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA), an easilyaccessible source for determination of fetal disease status in risk families through non-invasive procedures. In case of monogenic heritabledisease, background maternal cfDNA prohibits direct observation of the maternally inherited allele. Non-invasive prenatal diagnostics(NIPD) of monogenic diseases therefore relies on parental haplotyping and statistical assessment of inherited alleles from cffDNA,techniques currently unavailable for routine clinical practice. Here, we present monogenic NIPD (MG-NIPD), which requires a bloodsample from both parents, for targeted locus amplification (TLA)-based phasing of heterozygous variants selectively at a gene of interest.Capture probes-based targeted sequencing of cfDNA from the pregnant mother and a tailored statistical analysis enables predicting fetalgene inheritance. MG-NIPD was validated for 18 pregnancies, focusing on CFTR, CYP21A2, and HBB. In all cases we could predict theinherited alleles with >98% confidence, even at relatively early stages (8 weeks) of pregnancy. This prediction and the accuracy ofparental haplotyping was confirmed by sequencing of fetal material obtained by parallel invasive procedures. MG-NIPD is a robustmethod that requires standard instrumentation and can be implemented in any clinic to provide families carrying a severe monogenicdisease with a prenatal diagnostic test based on a simple blood draw.

• Chromothripsis in human breast cancer (HIPO K26K/H017/A017)

  Chromothripsis is a form of genome instability, by which a presumably single catastrophic event generates extensive genomic rearrangements of one or a few chromosome(s). Widely assumed to be an early event in tumor development, this phenomenon plays a prominent role in tumor onset. We analyzed chromothripsis in 252 human breast cancers from two patient cohorts (149 metastatic breast cancers, 63 untreated primary tumors, 29 local relapses, 11 longitudinal pairs) using whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing. We showed that chromothripsis affects a substantial proportion of human breast cancers, with a prevalence over 60% in a cohort of metastatic cases and 25% in a cohort comprising predominantly luminal breast cancers (cohorts from HIPO K26K and H017 and A017). In the vast majority of cases, multiple chromosomes per tumor are affected, with most chromothriptic events on chromosomes 11 and 17 including, among other significantly altered drivers, CCND1, ERBB2, CDK12 and BRCA1. Importantly, chromothripsis generates recurrent fusions that drive tumor development. Chromothripsis-related rearrangements are linked with univocal mutational signatures, with clusters of point mutations due to kataegis in close proximity to the genomic breakpoints, and with the activation of specific signaling pathways. Analysis of the temporal order of events in tumors with and without chromothripsis as well as longitudinal analysis of chromothriptic patterns in tumor pairs revealed important insights on the role of chromothriptic chromosomes in tumor evolution.

• Targeted de-methylation of the FOXP3-TSDR

  CD4+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) are key mediators of immunological tolerance and promising effector cells for immuno-suppressive adoptive cellular therapy to fight autoimmunity and chronic inflammation. Their functional stability is critical for their clinical utility and has been correlated to the demethylated state of the TSDR/CNS2 enhancer element in the Treg lineage transcription factor FOXP3. However, proof for a causal contribution of the TSDR de-methylation to FOXP3 stability and Treg induction is so far lacking. We here established a powerful transient-transfection CRISPR-Cas9-based epigenetic-editing method for the selective de-methylation of the TSDR within the endogenous chromatin environment of a living cell. The induced de-methylated state was stable over weeks in clonal T cell proliferation cultures even after expression of the editing complex had ceased. Epigenetic editing of the TSDR resulted in FOXP3 expression, even in its physiological isoform distribution, proving a causal role for the de-methylated TSDR in FOXP3 regulation. However, successful FOXP3 induction was not associated with a switch towards a functional Treg phenotype, in contrast to what has been reported from FOXP3 overexpression approaches. Thus, TSDR de-methylation is required, but not sufficient for a stable Treg phenotype induction. Therefore, targeted demethylation of the TSDR may be a critical addition to published in vitro Treg induction protocols which so far lack FOXP3 stability.

• An autoinflammatory RIG-I variant causing Singleton-Merten Syndrome associates with small non-coding Y-RNAs

  The RNA sensor RIG-I performs a critical role in surveying the cytoplasm for the presence of viral nucleic acids and initiating the downstream anti-viral type I interferon pathway. Through recognition of specific features, such as the presence of a 5’ di/triphosphate motif or highly structured base-paired regions, RIG-I effectively differentiates between RNA of viral- and self-origin. In Singleton-Merten syndrome (SMS), gain-of-function variants in RIG-I lead to a breakdown in this surveillance system and results in aberrant sensing of self-RNAs and deleterious upregulation of type I interferons. The identity of the self-RNAs binding to gain-of-function RIG-I mutants has remained elusive and would provide a greater understanding of the aetiology of SMS. Here we used an infrared individual-nucleotide resolution UV-crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (irCLIP) approach to determine the RNA profile bound to a previously characterised ATPase-deficient SMS variant, RIG-IC268F. irCLIP identified a broad array of self-RNAs, primarily those transcribed by RNA polymerase III, that were bound to RIG-I. Subsequent native RNA immunoprecipitation confirmed a prominent and specific interaction between RIG-IC268F and Y-RNAs, a family of four structurally similar non-coding RNAs. Manipulation of Y-RNAs alone by targeting either Y-RNA transcripts or Y-RNA stabilising proteins was insufficient to negate RIG-I induce interferon, hinting at a broader profile of RNA polymerase III-derived RNAs being influential in driving the sterile activation of gain-of-function RIG-I variants.

• C3 SNPs and outcome after lung transplantation

  Background: Development of chronic rejection is still a severe problem and causes high mortality rates after lung transplantation (LTx). Complement activation is important in the development of acute rejection (AR) and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, with C3 as a key complement factor. Methods: Since a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the C3 gene (rs2230199) is associated with long-term outcome after solid organ transplantation, we investigated this SNP in relation to LTx. In addition, we looked at local production of C3 by analyzing bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of LTx patients using isoelectric focusing (IEF). Results: We demonstrated the presence of C3 in BALF and showed that this is produced by the donor lung based on the genotype of SNP rs2230199. We also analyzed donor and patient SNP configurations and observed a significant association between the SNP configuration in patients and episodes of AR during 4-years follow-up. Survival analysis showed a lower AR-free survival in homozygous C3 slow patients (p=0.005). Furthermore, we found a significant association between the SNP configuration in donors and BOS development. Patients receiving a graft from a donor with at least one C3 fast variant for rs2230199 had an inferior BOS-free survival (p=0.044). Conclusions: In conclusion, our data indicate local C3 production by donor lung cells. In addition, a single C3 SNP present in recipients affects short-term outcome after LTx, while this SNP in donors has an opposite effect on long-term outcome after LTx. These results could contribute to an improved risk stratification after transplantation.

• Somatic mutations predict an aggressive phenotype in meningioma but do not drive grade progression

  A subset of meningiomas progress in histopathological grade and drivers of progression are poorly understood. We aimed to identify somatic mutations and copy number alterations (CNAs) associated with grade progression in a unique matched tumour dataset. Utilising a prospective database, we identified 10 patients with meningiomas that had undergone grade progression and for whom matched pre- and post-progression tissue (n=50 samples) was available for targeted next-generation sequencing. Mutations in NF2 were identified in 4/10 patients, 94% were non-skull base tumours. In one patient, three different NF2 mutations were identified in four tumours. NF2 mutated tumours showed large scale CNAs, with highly recurrent losses in 1p, 10, 22q, and frequent CNAs on chromosomes 2, 3 and 4. There was a correlation between grade and CNAs in a subset of patients. In two patients with sphenoid wing Grade III tumours without detected NF2 mutations, a STAT6-NAB2 inversion was identified. Two patients with tumours without detected NF2 mutations showed a combination of loss and high gain on chromosome 17q. Mutations in SETD2, TP53, TERT promoter and NF2 were not uniform across recurrent tumours and did not correspond with grade progression. Meningiomas that progress in grade generally have a mutational profile already detectable in the pre-progressed tumour, suggesting an aggressive phenotype . CNA profiling shows frequent alterations in NF2 mutated tumours compared to non NF2 mutated tumours and the pattern of CNAs may be associated with grade progression in a subset of cases.

• Accurate mutation detection in leukemia by re-sequencing a cancer gene set

  With the advent of whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing, high-quality catalogs of recurrently mutated cancer genes are becoming available for many cancer types. Increasing access to sequencing technology, including bench-top sequencers, provide the opportunity to re-sequence a limited set of cancer genes across a patient cohort with limited processing time. Here, we re-sequenced a set of cancer genes in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) using the Roche/454 technology coupled with Nimblegen sequence capture. First, we investigated how a maximal sensitivity and specificity of mutation detection can be achieved through a benchmark study. We tested nine combinations of different mapping and variant-calling methods, varied the variant calling parameters, and compared the predicted mutations with a large independent validation set obtained by capillary re-sequencing. We found that the combination of two mapping algorithms, namely BWA-SW and SSAHA2, coupled with the variant calling algorithm Atlas-SNP2 yields the highest sensitivity (95%) and the highest specificity (93%). Next, we applied this analysis pipeline to identify mutations in a set of 58 cancer genes, in a panel of 18 T-ALL cell lines and 15 T-ALL patient samples. We confirmed mutations in known T-ALL drivers, including PHF6, NF1, FBXW7, NOTCH1, KRAS, NRAS, PIK3CA, and PTEN. Interestingly, we also found mutations in several cancer genes that had not been linked to T-ALL before, including JAK3. Finally, we re-sequenced a small set of 39 candidate genes and identified recurrent mutations in TET1, SPRY3 and SPRY4. In conclusion, we established an optimized analysis pipeline for Roche/454 data that can be applied to accurately detect gene mutations in cancer, which led to the identification of several new candidate T-ALL driver mutations.
