• Integrated single-cell profiling dissects cell-state-specific enhancer landscapes of human tumor infiltrating T cells.

  Despite extensive studies on the chromatin landscape of exhausted T cells, the transcriptional wiring underlying functional and dysfunctional states of human tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) is incompletely understood. Here, we identify tissue-specific and general gene-regulatory landscapes in the wide breadth of CD8+ TIL functional states covering four cancer entities using single-cell chromatin profiling. We map enhancer-promoter interactions in human TILs by integrating single-cell chromatin accessibility with single-cell RNA-seq data from tumor entity-matching samples and prioritize key elements by super enhancer analysis. Our analysis reveals a human core chromatin trajectory to TIL dysfunction and identifies key enhancers, transcriptional regulators, and deregulated target genes involved in this process. Finally, we validate enhancer regulation at loci encoding PD1, TCF1, and TIM3 by targeting non-coding regulatory elements with potent CRISPR activators and repressors. In summary, our study advances the understanding of molecular regulation of TIL (dys-)function and provides a framework for modulating immunotherapeutic relevant TIL genes via their enhancers.

• Cholesterol homeostasis and lipid raft dynamics at the basis of tumor-induced immune dysfunction in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

  Autologous T-cell therapies show limited efficacy in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), where acquired immune dysfunction prevails. In CLL, disturbed mitochondrial metabolism has been linked to defective T-cell activation and proliferation. Recent research suggests that lipid metabolism regulates mitochondrial function and differentiation in T cells, yet its role in CLL remains unexplored. This comprehensive study compares T-cell lipid metabolism in CLL patients and healthy donors, revealing critical dependence on exogenous cholesterol for human T-cell expansion following TCR-mediated activation. Using multi-omics and functional assays, we found that T cells present in viably frozen samples of patients with CLL (CLL T cells) showed impaired adaptation to cholesterol deprivation and inadequate upregulation of key lipid metabolism transcription factors. CLL T cells exhibited altered lipid storage, with increased triacylglycerols and decreased cholesterol, and inefficient fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Functional consequences of reduced FAO in T cells were studied using samples from patients with inherent FAO disorders. Reduced FAO was associated with lower T-cell activation but did not affect proliferation. This implicates low cholesterol levels as a primary factor limiting T-cell proliferation in CLL. Consequently, CLL T cells displayed fewer and less clustered lipid rafts, potentially explaining the impaired immune synapse formation observed in these patients. Our findings highlight significant disruptions in lipid metabolism as drivers of functional deficiencies in CLL T cells, underscoring the pivotal role of cholesterol in T-cell proliferation. This study suggests that modulating cholesterol metabolism could enhance T-cell function in CLL, presenting novel immunotherapeutic approaches to improve outcome in this challenging disease.

• Genomic diversity of the African-descent Makranis of Pakistan

  From the eighth century onward, the Indian Ocean was the scene of extensive trade of sub-Saharan African slaves, via sea routes controlled by Muslim Arab and Swahili traders. Several populations in present-day Pakistan and India are thought to be the descendants of such slaves, yet their genetic ancestries and history of admixture and natural selection remain largely undefined. Here we studied the genome-wide diversity of the African-descent Makranis, residing on the Arabian Sea coast of Pakistan, together with that of four neighboring Pakistani populations, to investigate the genetic legacy, population dynamics and tempo of the Indian Ocean slave trade. We show that the Makranis result from an admixture event between local Baluch tribes and Bantu-speaking populations from eastern/southeastern Africa, which we dated to ~300 years ago during the Omani Empire domination. Levels of inbreeding, measured through cumulative runs of homozygosity, were found to be similar across Pakistani populations, suggesting that the admixed Makranis rapidly adopted the traditional practice of endogamous marriages. Finally, we searched for signatures of post-admixture selection at several traits evolving under positive selection, including skin color, lactase persistence and resistance to malaria. We demonstrate that the African-specific Duffy-null blood group — believed to confer resistance against Plasmodium vivax infection — was recently introduced to Pakistan through the slave trade and evolved under positive selection in this vivax malaria-endemic region. Collectively, our study reconstructs the genetic and adaptive history of a neglected episode of the African Diaspora, and illustrates the impact of recent admixture on the diffusion of adaptive traits across human populations.

• HIPO016 - glioblastoma tumour methylation microarray profiling

  Methylation microarray profiling (Illumina Human Methylation 450k and EPIC platforms) of 60 adult glioblastomas. Tumours were subtyped using the approach from Sturm et al. (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ccr.2012.08.024): 12 IDH, 18 MES, 12 RTK I, 18 RTK II. DNA was prepared, assayed on the microarrays, and raw data computationally processed as described in Capper et al., "DNA methylation-based classification of central nervous system tumours": https://www.nature.com/articles/nature26000

• Epigenome-wide association study of cocaine use disorder in postmortem human brain tissue

  Analysis of cocaine use disorder (CUD) associated epigenome-wide DNA methylation (DNAm) alterations in human postmortem brain tissue of Brodmann Area 9. Tissue samples from N=21 CUD cases and N=21 individuals without CUD originating from the Douglas Bell Canada Brain Bank (DBCBB) were included. Epigenome-wide DNAm was investigated using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array.

• WES data from tumors and matching controls collected from 11 UTSW translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC) patients.

  This study investigates translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC) to identify mutations contributing to tRCC progression. The analysis relies on Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) data obtained from 11 patients treated at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW) affiliated hospitals, including Parkland Hospital and Children’s Medical Center. Tumor samples and their corresponding normal DNA were sequenced using the Illumina platform.

• RNA sequencing of BCP-LBL patients samples

  In order to perform comprehensive transcriptomics and gene fusion analyses of a cohort of BCP-LBL patients, we performed RNA sequencing of 49 tissue samples from BCP-LBL patients. Because the material was available as FFPE, and had a relative low quality, we used a capture-based approach, where NGS libraries obtained from total RNA were captured in 4-plex, using a whole exome capture panel.

• Whole Exome Sequencing Bipolar cases matched controls performed at Broad Inst on cohort from Germany

  This research project was a collaboration between University Hospital Frankfurt and the Stanley Center at the Broad Institute. In this project we sequenced and analyzed the whole exomes of 823 Bipolar case/control samples from collaborators in Germany. Genomic DNA from each sample was sequenced to a mean depth of 20x. The exome used Twist capture and samples were sequenced on Illumina HiSeqX machines producing cram files.
