• Myelodysplastic_syndrome_whole_genomes

  Wholegenome libraries will be prepared from at least two serial samples reflecting different stages of disease progression and matched constitutional DNA for 30 Myelodysplastic syndrome patient samples. Five lanes of Illumina HiSeq sequencing will be performed on each of the tumour samples and four lanes for each of the constitutional DNA. Sequencing data will mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome and analysis will be performed to characterize the spectrum of somatic variation present in these samples including single base pair mutations, insertions, deletions as well as larger structural variants and genomic rearrangements.

• Targeted exome sequencing of pleomorphic invasive lobular carcinoma (PILC).

  Pleomorphic invasive lobular carcinoma (PILC) is an aggressive variant of invasive lobular breast cancer that is associated with poor clinical outcomes. Limited molecular data are available to explain the mechanistic basis for PILC behavior. To address this issue, we performed targeted sequencing using the Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI) TumorCare™ gene panel that includes 1053 genes that were selected based upon their association with cancer. This sequencing analysis identified genes that distinguish PILC from classic ILC (CILC) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) by the incidence of their genomic changes.

• Myeloproliferative_Disorder_Sequencing

  Agilent whole exome hybridisation capture will be performed on genomic DNA derived from 50 myeloproliferative disorder samples and matched normal DNA from the same patients. Three lanes of Illumina GA sequencing will be performed on the resulting 100 exome libraries and mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the identification of novel cancer genes. In addition, 500bp, NO_PCR total genomic libraries will be prepared from the same samples and five lanes of Illumina GA sequencing will be analysed to characterise genome wide, somatically acquired structural variation.

• Whole exome sequencing of advanced gastric cancer

  To define the cellular characteristics of malignant ascites of advanced gastric cancer patients and search for therapeutic strategies, we obtained 5 malignant ascites and 1 cerebrospinal fluid from five patients with gastric cancer. We analyzed 180 cells from 4 malignant ascites and 1 cerebrospinal fluid metastasis. The results indicate that the anti-inflammatory characteristics of the tumor associated macrophages are concocted by the tumor cells. By constructing reference transcriptomes for M1 and M2 type macrophages, we found a strong non-inflammatory property of macrophages recovered from the malignant ascites of gastric cancer.

• RUNX1 mutated families show phenotype heterogeneity and a somatic mutation profile unique to germline predisposed AML

  We present the clinical phenotypes and genetic mutations detected in 10 novel RUNX1 mutated FPD-MM families. Genomic analyses on these families detected two partial gene deletions, three novel mutations and five recurrent mutations as the germline RUNX1 alterations leading to FPD-MM. On 15 individuals, across the 10 families, we performed additional whole exome or myeloid panel sequencing on blood or bone marrow to determine somatic mutations that co-exist with the germline RUNX1 mutation in tumour and pre-leukaemic states.

• Single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of the human hematopoietic stem cell compartment (CD34+CD38-CD45RA-)

  To identify a trajectory of human hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) activation single cell gene expression profiling of RNA from human HSC was performed by flow cytometry-based single cell deposition of CD34+CD38—CD45RA—cells from G-CSF-mobilized peripheral blood from 3 individual donors and 1 bone marrow donor in concert with single cell index-sorting (signals indexed: CD34, CD38, CD45RA, CD90, CD49f) and followed by SMARTseq2 based protocol. We show that INKA1 and CDK6/PAK4 expressing single cells segregate across alternative states of quiescence.

• RNASeq of PDX and CDX tumours treated with ADC

  Enapotamab vedotin (EnaV), an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting AXL, effectively targets tumors that display insensitivity to immunotherapy and/or tumor-specific T cells in several melanoma and lung cancer models. Mechanistically, EnaV treatment induced an inflammatory response and immunogenic cell death in tumor cells, and promoted induction of a memory-like phenotype in cytotoxic T cells. Combining EnaV with tumor-specific T cells proved superior to any treatment alone in models of melanoma and lung cancer, and increased ICB benefit in models otherwise insensitive to anti-PD-1 treatment.

• Genome-wide SNP genotyping and DNA methylation epigenotyping of African rainforest hunter-gatherers and neighbouring agriculturalists

  The epigenomic landscape of the human genome, in particular DNA methylation, is increasingly recognised as an important driver of phenotypic diversity in health and disease. However, the impact that genetic variation and changes in lifestyle and ecological habitat have on this epigenetic mark remains unknown. To address this question, we analysed genome-wide SNP and DNA methylation profiles of 362 individuals from African populations of rainforest hunter-gatherers and sedentary farmers with different past and present lifestyles and ecologies.

• The NIHR BioResource Rare Diseases BRIDGE consortium sequencing projects

  The NIHR BioResource Rare Diseases BRIDGE consortium is a collaboration between 13 Rare Disease projects that aim to discover the genetic sequence variants underlying unresolved inherited disorders and to improve identification of already identified high penetrance variants. BRIDGE projects cover a variety of rare disease research areas including Cardiovascular, Infection and Immunity and Neuroscience. The consortium aims to sequence 8,000 samples across the different projects by 2017.
