• Genomic sequencing of Ewing's Sarcoma

  The Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (EFT) is a group of malignant small round blue cell tumors that arise in bone or soft tissue. Ewing sarcoma (ES) is the second most common type of primary bone tumor to affect children and adolescents and accounts for 2.9% of all childhood cancers. This data set reports whole-genome sequencing of 6 primary Ewing's Sarcoma samples and matching germline samples.

• Genome-Wide Approach to Measure Variant-Based Heritability of Drug Outcome Phenotypes

  Current pharmacogenetic approaches often use a few large-effect alleles to predict drug outcomes. However, many drug outcome phenotypes are determined by complex pathways that may be influenced by common single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) across the genome. We ascertained how much variation in drug response is explained by common SNVs for pharmacokinetic (drug levels) and pharmacodynamic phenotypes (highest creatinine) for 4 drugs: vancomycin, gentamicin, cyclosporine and tacrolimus.

• Susceptibility to Respiratory Infections Due to Autosomal Recessive IFIH1 Mutations

  We studied a child with life-threatening and recurrent respiratory tract infections, caused by multiple viruses including rhinovirus, influenza virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). We identified in her a homozygous missense mutation in IFIH1 that encodes MDA5 by Whole Exome Sequencing. MDA5-deficiency is a novel inborn error of innate immunity that results in impaired dsRNA-sensing, reduced IFN induction, and susceptibility to the common cold virus.

• Integrated Genetic and Pharmacologic Interrogation of Rare Cancers

  Due to the paucity of patient derived models in rare cancers, identification of therapeutic targets remains challenging. We developed a patient derived model, CLF-PED-015-T, from a patient with an undifferentiated sarcoma. From this model, we performed pooled RNAi and CRISPR-Cas9 negative selection screens and integrated that with a small molecule screen. Integration of these data identified CDK4 and XPO1 as potential therapeutic targets.

• Mapping the Evolution of T Cell States During Response and Resistance to Adoptive Cellular Therapy

  We investigated single T cell transcriptional states that define donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) response and resistance from cryopreserved bone marrow mononuclear cells from 15 patients with relapsed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. By integrating bulk ATAC-seq data from sorted T cell populations from these bone marrow samples, we also defined gene regulatory networks that underlay these clusters.

• Clinical and Genetic Analysis of Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)

  Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of childhood blindness worldwide and is treated based on the presence of symptoms of "plus disease", a dilation and tortuosity of retinal vessels. This project aims to identify the genetic and clinical underpinnings of the disease by comparing the germline variants of ~1,400 premature babies. 100 samples have been selected for WES and all have been genotyped.

• Laser Capture Microscopy (LCM)-RNAseq for Topological Mapping of Synovial Pathology during Rheumatoid Arthritis

  Synovial tissue from the hip or knee was collected from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) patients at the time of joint replacement surgery. Samples were analyzed using laser capture microdissection (LCM) followed by RNA-seq to evaluate the transcriptome in distinct synovial compartments. Results indicated that synovial compartments have both shared and distinct transcriptional signatures that correspond to key pathways relevant to RA pathogenesis.

• ScRNA sequencing and snp-array genotyping of peripheral immune cells in Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)

  Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a prototypic endocrine autoimmune disease resulting from an immune-mediated destruction of pancreatic insulin-secreting beta-cells. A comprehensive immune cell phenotype evaluation in T1DM has not been performed thus far at the single. In this cross-sectional analysis, we generated a single-cell transcriptomic dataset of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 46 manifest T1DM (Stage 3) cases and 31 matched controls.Our study reveals a surprisingly strong systemic dimension at the level of immune cell network in T1DM, defines disease-relevant molecular subtypes and has the potential to guide non-invasive test development and patient stratification.

• RNA-seq following miR-130a knock-down (KD) in Flag-tag AML1-ETO Kasumi-1 cells

  We performed RNA-seq on Flag-tag AML1-ETO Kasumi-1 cells transduced with Control or miR-130a KD lentiviruses to identify differentially expressed genes. Kasumi-1 cells were transduced in 3 independent replicates for control and miR-130a KD samples with lentiviruses containing GFP reporter gene. GFP+ cells were sorted 3 days post-transduction and RNA was harvested for library preparation and sequencing.

• Clonal Evolution and Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm - Two Cases

  Here we present two case studies of sequential whole exome sequencing (WES) in patients, who both developed BPDCN throughout their medical history but primarily presented with lymphoid cancers (clonally related ALK-negative anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) and T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL)) and whose bone marrow at remission exhibited a CMML phenotype, from which in both cases BPDCN clones arose that subsequently became treatment refractory.
