• Genome Wide Association Study of Serum Creatinine during Vancomycin Therapy and Vancomycin Pharmacokinetics

  The goal of this study was to identify genetic variants associated with risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients being treated with vancomycin and genetic variants associated with variability in vancomycin pharmacokinetics. AKI is a common adverse drug event and known complication of vancomycin therapy. Known risk factors fail to accurately predict renal toxicity. Our hypothesis, that genetic variants modify the risk of AKI, was tested by performing genome-wide association and linear regression in 429 patients of European descent using the outcome of peak serum creatinine while on vancomycin. We also tested the hypothesis that genetic variants associate with vancomycin pharmacokinetics, using vancomycin trough levels and calculated renal elimination rate constant as outcomes.

• 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.

• Tumor microenvironment study of ovarian granulosa cell tumors

  Adult-type granulosa cell tumors (aGCT) are rare ovarian sex cord tumors with few 41 effective treatments for recurrent disease. The objective of this study was to compare global gene expression profiles and characterize the tumor microenvironment (TME) of primary and recurrent aGCTs in order to identify correlates of disease recurrence. Total RNA sequencing was performed on 24 pathologically confirmed, cryopreserved aGCT samples, including 8 primary and 16 recurrent tumors. A total of 31 differentially expressed genes were identified between primary and recurrent aGCT. TME analysis demonstrated significantly higher fractions of neutrophils and macrophages in recurrent tumors in conjunction with significantly lower fractions of cancer-associated fibroblasts and endothelial cells.

• Neural Systems, Inhibitory Control, and Methamphetamine Dependence

  The Neural Systems, Inhibitory Control, and Methamphetamine Dependence study started in 2011 and is currently finishing data collection for its last participants. The study included methamphetamine abusing individuals and healthy control participants aged 18-55 years. Participants who qualified over the telephone were scheduled to visit the London Laboratory at the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior for the In-Person Screening Phase. The screening procedures, usually scheduled over two visits, determined if participants were eligible to complete the subsequent study visits. Both groups completed identical screening procedures, with the exception of more in-depth drug use questions for the methamphetamine users. After providing written consent, participants completed questionnaires about their mood, medical, psychiatric and drug use history, personality and life experiences. They also provided a urine sample to determine what drugs they recently used and a breath sample to determine the carbon monoxide levels in their system. The drug screen tested for recent methamphetamine, cocaine, opiates/opioids, benzodiazepines, THC and other amphetamines. Methamphetamine participants needed to test positive for methamphetamine at admission. If methamphetamine participants tested positive for any drugs other than methamphetamine or marijuana, and if healthy control participants tested positive for any drugs other than marijuana, they were excluded from the study. Additionally, the urine samples of female participants were tested for pregnancy; pregnant females were also excluded. If no exclusionary criteria were met during the first screening visit, participants completed a second screening visit to ensure they were mentally and physically healthy enough to participate. The second screening visit included a psychiatric diagnostic interview (DSM-IV (SCID-I) for first 500 participants and the MINI International Neuropsychiatric Interview M.I.N.I for the last 50 participants). Additionally, laboratory tests and procedures were completed by the UCLA General Clinical Research Center and interpreted by a study physician. Laboratory tests included vital signs (heart rate--BPM, blood pressure, and respirations), an electrocardiogram (ECG) to record the electrical activity of the heart, and an 18-cc blood sample to perform laboratory tests which included a complete chemistry and metabolic panel, hepatic panel, Hepatitis-C tests, and HIV test. The laboratory tests from this blood sample ensured that participants' liver and kidneys were functioning normally, and that their standard blood counts (red cell, white cell, and salts) were also normal. If a Hepatitis-C (HCV) or HIV test was positive, participants were not allowed to continue in the study and their results were reported to the California State Health Department. Participants deemed eligible to continue in the methamphetamine group participated on an outpatient basis or were admitted to the UCLA Medical Center to participate on an inpatient basis for up to 10 days. Typically, detectable levels of methamphetamine in urinalysis remain for 2-3 days, therefore inpatient days 0-3 served as a "washout period" and the methamphetamine abusing inpatient participants provided daily urine samples to test for recent drug use and pregnancy (female participants only). Outpatient participants were also required to remain abstinent from all drugs except nicotine and marijuana for at least 4 days prior to study sessions. Self-reported abstinence for outpatients was verified by urine toxicology and saliva screening at every visit to UCLA before completion of study procedures. Neurocognitive assessments, about three hours each, typically took place on two separate days. The purpose of the neurocognitive sessions were to assess participants' intellectual and neurocognitive functioning. On either the same day as the neurocognitive testing or on separate days, both methamphetamine abusers and healthy controls were administered a structural MRI to collect information on brain structure.
