• Single cell transcriptional characterization of human megakaryocyte lineage commitment and maturation

  Single cell RNA-sequencing of sternal bone marrow reciding Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs) and Megakaryocytes (MKs) from individuals undergoing elective open heart valve replacement. HSCs were defined as Lineage-, CD34+, CD38-, CD45RA-, CD90+, CD49f+ cells. MKs where CD41a+, CD42b+ and ploidy was determined with Hoechst. A sternal bone marrow scraping was taken directly following median sternotomy using a Volkmann’s spoon. The sample was collected into an EDTA Vacutainer tube containing 1.8mg/ml EDTA. 4mL of Dulbecco’s phosphate buffered saline (PBS, Sigma) containing 10% human serum albumin (HSA, Gemini Bio Products) was added and the whole volume was resuspended by pipetting 2-3 times. The sample was then put on metallic thermal beads (ThermoFisher Scientific) at a temperature between 0-4°C and transported to the University of Cambridge for further processing. For HSC isolation the cells were stained with the following antibody cocktail: PECy5 conjugated anti-lineage specific antibodies: CD2 (BD), CD3 (BD), CD10 (BD), CD11b (BD), CD11c (BD), CD19 (BD), CD20 (BD), CD56 (BD), biotinylated CD42b (Pab5, NHS Blood and Transplant, International Blood Group Reference Laboratory [IBGRL]), biotinylated GP6 (Pab5, NHS Blood and Transplant, International Blood Group Reference Laboratory [IBGRL]) used in combination with PECy5 conjugated streptavidin (Biolegend). Alexa Fluor 700 conjugated anti-CD34 (BD), PerCP-Cy5.5 conjugated anti-CD38 (BD), Pacific Blue conjugated anti-CD45RA (Invitrogen), PECy7 conjugated anti-CD90 (BD),PE conjugated anti-CD49f (BD). After staining cells were kept at 4°C before sorting using a FACS Aria Fusion flow sorter (BD). Single HSCs defined as Lineage-, CD34+, CD38-, CD45RA-, CD90+, CD49f+ cells were sorted by FACS directly into individual wells of a 96-well plate. Index sort data was collected for each single cell. For MK isolation the cells were stained for surface MK markers with mouse anti-human CD41a APC conjugated antibody (BD) and mouse anti-human CD42b PE conjugated antibody (BD) and for ploidy analysis with 1ug/ml Hoechst 33342 (Invitrogen). After incubation at 37°C for 30 minutes, the cells were kept at 4°C before sorting using a FACS Aria Fusion flow sorter (BD). Single cells and MK pools of 20 cells were sorted by FACS according to ploidy level using a 100uM nozzle directly into individual wells of a 96-well plate. cDNA synthesis and poly(A) enrichment was performed following the G&T-seq protocol (Macaulay et al. 2015), a variation of the Smart-seq2 protocol1. ERCC spike-in RNA (Ambion) was added to the lysis buffer in a dilution of 1:4,000,000.

• RNA-Sequencing of cervical cancers

  Question: Can we identify cervical cancer patients who are at risk for distant metastatic (DM) recurrence following treatment with radiotherapy, concurrent weekly cisplatin and brachytherapy (RTCT). Findings: An immune-based 55 gene risk score was developed using a cohort of 81 patients treated with RTCT that was strongly predictive of DM and cause-specific survival (CSS). The risk score was validated in two independent patient cohorts. A high immune metastatic risk score was associated with a high tumor mutational burden and a ‘cold’, immune-excluded tumor microenvironment at diagnosis. Meaning: The immune gene expression risk score may help to identify patients at risk of DM and potential targets for mitigating this risk.

• Enhancer Mapping in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

  In this study we profile the epigenomic enhancer landscapes of CLL B cells (CD19+/CD5+) harvested from peripheral blood of patients from our Center. Included are results of ChIPseq profiling using chromatin immunoprecipitation of the enhancer histone mark H3K27ac (acetylated lysine 27 on histone H3), and open chromatin profiles using ATAC-seq (assay for transposase accessible chromatin). These profiles are used to define the global enhancer and super enhancer landscape of CLL B cells, and to derive active transcription factor networks associated with this disease. Also included are H3K27ac ChIP-seq and ATAC-seq datasets for non-CLL B cells obtained from the peripheral blood of normal adult donors.

• Sequence Analysis of Mutations and Translocations Across Breast Cancer Subtypes

  This study combined whole exome (103 samples) and whole genome (22 samples) sequencing over a total of 108 breast tumors and matched normal DNA to identify novel mutations and translocations. Samples were subjected to paired-end Illumina sequencing with goal of 30x coverage of tumor/normal for whole genomes and 100x tumor/normal coverage for whole exomes. From these sequences, we used various computational techniques to identify somatic point mutations, insertion/deletions and structural rearrangements in these tumors. From these data, we identified new insights into the rates of background mutations in these cancers, novel recurrent mutated genes, and multiple gene rearrangements. One of these rearrangements appears to be a recurrent event in breast cancer.

• Epilepsy Genetics Initiative

  The Epilepsy Genetics Initiative (EGI) was created in 2014 with the goal of amassing a database of clinically-generated exome sequence data for patients with epilepsy who have had diagnostic whole exome sequencing. Most of the subjects enrolled in the study did not receive a secure genetic diagnosis from their initial sequencing. Following participant/family consent, EGI transfers raw data from the respective clinical lab to the Institute for Genomic Medicine at Columbia University Medical Center. The strategy of the initiative has been to carry out systematic reanalysis of data to identify new diagnoses that were not possible or missed at the time of initial sequencing and to aid in novel gene discovery in epilepsy.

• Single-cell RNA sequencing of pediatric Hodgkin Lymphoma to study the inhibition of T cell subtypes

  Here, we applied single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) on isolated HRS cells and the immune cells from the same cHL tumors. This allowed us to identify genes of cell surface proteins that are consistently overexpressed in HRS cells and can potentially be used as targets for antibody-drug conjugates or CAR T cells. Finally, we identify potential interactions by which HRS cells inhibit T cells, among which the Galectin-1/CD69 and HLA-DRA/LAG3 interactions. However, high levels of inter-patient heterogeneity of the interaction strength were observed. In conclusion, this study identifies new potential therapeutic targets for cHL and highlights the importance of studying heterogeneity when identifying therapy targets.

• Precision Diagnosis of Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Middle Eastern Populations

  We constructed de novo genome assemblies for six family trios from diverse Middle Eastern ancestries (Sudan, Jordan, Syria, Qatar, and Afghanistan), involving probands with various unresolved neurodevelopmental conditions. We generated high-quality, nearly complete genome assemblies for trios, revealing extended novel sequence impacting known genes, novel HLA/KIR alleles, and strong signals of inbreeding, with runs of homozygosity covering large parts of individual chromosomes. We also identified potential disease variants underlying the unresolved symptoms. Also, the assemblies uncovered unique variation relative to existing references, showing enhanced mapping and variant calling of Middle Eastern genomes. The dataset available through dbGaP includes raw short (Illumina) and long (PacBio) sequencing reads and assembled haplotypes.

• CpG methylation changes associated with hyperglycemia in type 1 diabetes occur at angiogenic glomerular and retinal gene loci.

  Retinal and glomerular microangiopathy, and cardiovascular disease, contribute to the morbidity and mortality observed in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). While the level and duration of hyperglycemia are primary factors influencing these complications, the underlying molecular mechanisms behind glucose-induced organ damage remain poorly understood. In this study, blood samples from young T1D patients at diagnosis and three years later in average were analyzed for DNA methylation using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. Significant DNA methylation changes in critical angiogenic gene loci were associated with HbA1c, a direct hallmark of chronic hyperglycemia. This finding may offer novel epigenetic insights for a better understanding of T1D complications.

• Splicing signature analysis of RNU2-2 samples

  Dominant pathogenic variants in the snRNA RNU2-2 were recently reported as a cause of neurodevelopmental disorders. In our study we identified additional individuals with dominant variants (n.4G>A and n.35A>G) and we also identified biallelic variants as a novel frequent cause of neurodevelopmental disorder. We obtained blood samples and performed short-term lymhocytes cultures for 19 cases (5 n.4; 5 n.35; 9 biallelic). We generated exome-capture RNA-Seq for these cases that we compared to 49 controls (probands affected from a neurodevelopmental disorder but without RNU2-2 variants). We observed that RNU2-2 variants mainly disturb alternative exon skipping, although affecting different exons.

• Comprehensive analysis of the (epi)genome of pediatric atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumours (AT/RTs)

  Whole exome sequencing of atypical teratoid /rhabdoid tumors (AT/RTs) revealed recurrent mutations only in SMARCB1, a gene involved in chromatin remodeling. However, preliminary data from our lab using gene expression and DNA methylation arrays shows that there are three distinct molecular subgroups of AT/RTs, suggesting that other molecular alterations underlying the development of these aggressive pediatric brain tumors must be found outside the coding genome or at the epigenomic level. Identification of these (epi)genomic alterations, which we intend to address in this project, may lead to novel treatment strategies for these tumors and reveal options for meaningful patient stratification.

• Genomic profiling of IBC

  We collected matched pretreatment blood and tumor samples from 19 patients with primary TN-IBC enrolled in a phase II clinical trial (NCT02876107). Patients were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) or the anti-EGFR antibody panitumumab (PmAb) plus NAC (PmAb/NAC). We conducted whole-exome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and CIBERSORT analyses for these TN-IBC samples and compare the genetic and molecular profiles with similarly analyzed stage III TN-non-IBC patient samples. We also compared the genetic and molecular characteristics of TN-IBC in patients who had a pathologic complete response (pCR) to NAC or PmAb/NAC treatment, a suitable surrogate endpoint for IBC, with those who did not have pCR (non-pCR).

• ABIS_1_MeDIP-seq

  We investigated changes in whole genome DNA-methylation in a group of 48 healthy five-year-old children differentiated by their hair cortisol levels. By combining this novel biomarker for chronic stress with methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-seq), we found that high cortisol were associated with a genome-wide decrease in DNA-methylation targeted to specific zinc finger transcription factor binding sites, repetitive elements and genes important for neurodevelopment and calcium transport. Large scale hypomethylation of repetitive regions, as well as a deficient calcium transport, have been reported in many stress related diseases, as well as in many cancers and biological aging. Thus our findings may aid in our understanding of how susceptibility to these diseases develops.

• scRNA-seq of HSPC treated with gemcitabine and carboplatin

  4 samples of 2000000 HSPCs in 2 ml media each were then prepared and treated for 24 hours: carboplatin-high: 150 µg/ml carboplatin carboplatin-low: 18.75 µg/ml carboplatin gemcitabine: 25 ng/ml gemcitabine control: no drug Single-cells were subsequently extracted using the ddSEQ™ Single-Cell Isolator (Bio-Rad) and later sequenced using the SureCell™ Whole Transcriptome Analysis 3' Library Prep Kit (Illumina) on the NextSeq 500 System (Illumina) using the NextSeq 500/550 High Output Kit v2.5 150 Cycles (Illumina) all following the manufacturer's instructions. The raw FASTQ-files are available as read 1 and read 2 files from 4 lanes for each sample giving a total of 16 FASTQ-files. The FASTQ-files were also processed following the ddSeeker (Romagnoli, D., et al., BMC Genomics 2018, doi:10.1186/s12864-018-5249-x) and Drop-seq (Macosko, E.Z., et al., Cell 2015, doi:10.1016/j.cell.2015.05.002) protocols for processing scRNA-seq data to yield the final digital gene expression (dge) for each cell of each sample. This has resulted in one dge text file and one dge summary text file per sample. These 8 text-files with dge data are found in the zip-compressed analysis data-file.

• RNA-seq study of human long-term and short-term hematopoietic stem cells from umblical cord blood with lentiviral overexpression of S1PR3

  To investigate the molecular and biological pathways altered by S1PR3OE in human hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), we performed RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of LT- and ST-HSC 3 days after transduction with control or S1PR3 overexpression (OE) lentiviral vectors. LT-HSC and ST-HSC from 3 pool of CB lin- were FACS-purified, cells were prestimulated for 4 hours and transduced with lentiviral vectors. At day 3, 2000-5300 BFP+ cells were FACS-purified for RNA isolation with a PicoPure kit. We were able to isolate only 1600-1800 BFP+ cells from LT-HSC control samples as opposed to 4000-5400 BFP+ cells from S1PR3OE samples. Thus, we pooled all control BFP+ LT-HSC cells into one sample for RNA-seq analysis. BFP- LT-HSC from control vector transduction were purified from CB1 as an additional LT-HSC control. Nextera libraries generated from 10 ng RNA from 5 LT-HSC samples (2 controls, 3 S1PR3OE) and 6 ST-HSC samples (3 controls, 3 S1PR3OE) were subjected to 125 bp, paired-end RNA-sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq 2500 with an average of 50 million reads/sample at the Center for Applied Genomics, Sick Kids Hospital.

• Genome-Wide Discovery of Novel Breast Cancer Predisposing Mutations

  Cancer risk shows clear heritability, but the inherited genetic factors remain largely unknown. This project will seek to identify new genes in which mutations confer hereditary risk for early onset breast cancer, with important implications for both biological understanding and clinical prediction and prevention. Identifying cancer predisposing mutations can provide new biological insights and significantly impact important clinical decision making regarding treatment, surveillance and preventive approaches. Examples include the BRCA1 breast cancer susceptibility gene, which affects treatment decisions (surgical management), surveillance (frequent breast MRI) and prevention (oophorectory for prevention of ovarian cancer). Hereditary early onset breast cancer patients commonly present to Cancer Genetics clinics, but the majority of these patients do not have identifiable mutations in known candidate genes. Here, we will perform whole exome sequencing to discover novel cancer susceptibility genes. The patients have been recruited from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (PIs Kenneth Offit and Zsofia Stadler) and Massachusetts General Hospital (PI Daniel Haber). All exome sequencing was performed at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT; samples sequence capture was performed using Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon Kit v2 and sequencing was performed on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 or 2500.

• Epigenetic Biomarkers of Aging

  The aim of the study was to discover new epigenetic biomarkers of aging. We used a genome-wide screen for genetic loci showing consistent changes of DNA methylation with progressive aging. Blood DNA samples from 19 apparently healthy individuals aged 22-80 years obtained from the NINDS repositories were analyzed for DNA methylation using Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing. We followed the New England Biolabs (NEB) protocol for methylated adaptors as described previously. Briefly, 1 microgram of genomic DNA was spiked with 100 picograms of lambda phage DNA as the unmethylated standard and digested with MspI endonuclease at C’CGG sites. Ends of restriction fragments were filled in, 3’-dA tailed and methylated adaptors were ligated to the ends of restriction fragments. Bisulfite treatment using the Epitect kit (Qiagen) followed. Bisulfite-converted libraries were amplified using EpiMark Taq DNA polymerase (NEB) and primers with dual barcode indices. The libraries were pooled and sequenced on Illumina HiSeqX instrument using paired end reads of 150 bases. We used Bismark v0.23.1 to align the sequences to hg19 human genome assembly. We used methylKit v1.22.0 to analyze differential methylation in individuals of different ages.

• Resistance Development in Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome through the Basal to Squamous Transition

  While basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) arise from ectopic hedgehog pathway activation and can be treated with pathway inhibitors, sporadic BCCs display high resistance rates, while tumors arising in Gorlin syndrome patients with germline Patched (PTCH1) mutations are uniformly suppressed by inhibitor therapy. In rare cases, Gorlin syndrome patients on long-term inhibitor therapy will develop individual resistant tumor clones that rapidly progress, but the basis of this resistance remains unstudied. Here we report a case of a Smoothened inhibitor (SMOi)-resistant tumor arising in a Gorlin patient on suppressive SMOi for nearly a decade. Using a combination of multi-omics and spatial transcriptomics, we define the tumor populations at the cellular and tissue level to conclude that Gorlin tumors can develop resistance to SMOi through the previously described basal to squamous cell carcinoma transition (BST). Intriguingly, through spatial whole exome genomic analysis, we nominate PCYT2, ETNK1, and the phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthetic pathway as novel genetic suppressors of BST resistance. These observations provide a general framework for studying tumor evolution and provide important clinical insight into mechanisms of resistance to SMOi for not only Gorlin syndrome but sporadic BCCs as well.

• Genomic Analysis of Follicular Lymphoma

  We included tumors from newly diagnosed or untreated follicular lymphoma in this study. Samples consented to the University of Iowa and Mayo Clinic Lymphoma Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) were included for data sharing. RNA was extracted from 1) CD19 sorted B cells from tumor cell suspension frozen in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; RNA Tumor B Cell, n=77), 2) tumor cell suspensions frozen in DMSO (RNA Tumor DMSO, n=78), and 3) tumor tissue sections frozen in optimal cutting temperature compound (OCT; RNA Tumor OCT, n=53). For RNA sequencing, library preparation was done using the Illumina TruSeq RNA Exome Kit and sequenced with 100 nucleotide paired-end reads using the HiSeq 4000. DNA was extracted from 1) tumor cell suspensions frozen in DMSO (DNA Tumor DMSO, n=78), 2) tumor tissue sections frozen in OCT (DNA Tumor OCT, n=33), and 3) germline DNA from peripheral blood (n=102) and from normal tissue adjacent tumor (n=9). For whole exome sequencing (WES), library preparation was done using the Agilent SureSelect XT kit and sequenced with 100 nucleotide paired-end reads using the Illumina HiSeq 4000.

• Adipocytes Regulate Fibroblast Function and Their Loss Contributes to Fibroblast Dysfunction in Inflammatory Diseases

  We profiled live synovial cells from 16 individuals with no diagnosed arthritis using single-cell RNA sequencing. Our study was designed to provide a reference single cell RNA sequencing dataset for researchers interested in studying arthritic synovium, providing sequencing data on healthy synovial cells for comparison to cells from diseased synovial tissues. Synovial tissue was collected post-mortem from three different sources between 2019-2021: the National Disease Research Interchange, a collaboration with Rush University and the Gift of Hope, and the Brigham and Women's Hospital Autopsy Department. To be included in the study, patients had to be between the ages of 18 to 72 and have no diagnosed arthritis or autoimmune diseases. Additionally, this study includes bulk RNA sequencing data of cultured primary synovial fibroblasts isolated from three rheumatoid arthritis patents. Cells were stimulated with either cortisol, fat conditioned media, TGFβ, TNFα, fat conditioned media with mifepristone, TGFβ with fat conditioned media, or TNFα with fat conditioned media. Cells were harvested 4 or 22 hours later and lysates collected for sequencing. Data from this study submitted to the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) may be accessed via accession number GSE233504.

• Harnessing Epigenetic Regulators to improve HSC-based lentiviral gene therapy

  Curative benefits of autologous and allogeneic transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have been proven for various diseases. However, the low number of true HSCs that can be collected from patients and subsequently in vitro maintenance and expansion of true HSCs for genetic correction remain challenging. Addressing this issue, we here focused on optimizing culture conditions to improve the ex vivo expansion of true HSCs for gene therapy purposes. In particular, we explore the use of epigenetic regulators to enhance the effectiveness of HSC-based lentiviral (LV) gene therapy. The HDAC inhibitor Quisinostat and the bromodomain inhibitor CPI203 each promote ex vivo expansion of functional HSCs, as validated by xenotransplantation assays and single cell RNA-sequencing analysis. We confirmed the stealth effect of LV transduction on the loss of HSC numbers in commonly used culture protocols, while addition of Quisinostat or CPI203 improved expansion of HSCs in transduction protocols. Of note, we demonstrated that addition of Quisinostat improved LV transduction efficiency of HSCs and early progenitors. Our suggested culture conditions highlight the potential therapeutic effect of epigenetic regulators in hematopoietic stem cell biology and their clinical applications to advance HSC-based gene correction.

• Programs, Origins, and Immunomodulatory Functions of Myeloid Cells in Gliomas

  Gliomas are challenging malignancies characterized by an immunosuppressive microenvironment filled with myeloid cells, whose roles in immune modulation are not fully understood. In this study, we utilized single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from 85 primary human glioma tumors, related blood samples, and brain tumor organoid models. We found that nearly all glioma-associated myeloid cells express at least one of four distinct immunomodulatory activity programs. These programs include:1. Scavenger Immunosuppressive Program2. Complement Immunosuppressive Program3. Microglial Inflammatory Program4. Systemic Inflammatory ProgramAll four programs are found in both lower-grade and high-grade gliomas and are expressed across various myeloid cell types, whether derived from blood or resident origins. We validated the remarkable plasticity of myeloid cells by showing that the introduction of peripheral blood monocytes into glioma organoid models can induce the emergence of identities resembling microglia, macrophages, and dendritic cells, as well as all four immunomodulatory programs. Our study provides a valuable resource and a new framework for understanding the role of immunomodulatory myeloid cells in gliomas, laying the groundwork for developing effective immunotherapy strategies for glioma patients.
