• Dual-mTOR inhibitor Rapalink-1 reduces prostate cancer patient-derived xenograft growth and alters tumor heterogeneity

  Bone metastasis is the leading cause of prostate cancer (PCa) mortality, frequently marking the progression to castration-resistant PCa. In this study, we compared the molecular pathways enriched in a set of bone metastasis from breast and prostate cancer from snap-frozen tissue. To further model PCa drug resistance mechanisms, we used two patient-derived xenografts (PDX) models of bone-metastatic PCa, BM18 and LAPC9.

• Differential gene expression in the colon mucosa of irritable bowel syndrome patients with mixed type symptoms

  The aim of this study is to characterize the pathophysiology of the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) on the functional level and in parallel on the gene expression level. For this purpose RNAseq of mucosal biopsies was performed. The data from the differential expression analysis will be further processed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) software to gather Information on activated or inhibited signaling pathways in the disease.

• Clinical impact of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) response, DNA damage repair (DDR) gene mutations and immune-cell infiltration in subtypes of metastatic melanoma

  Our study identified that immune cell infiltration and DNA damage repair (DDR) gene mutations may have an impact in response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) treatment in metastatic melanoma but differs among melanoma subtypes. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the role of immune infiltration cells, DDR gene mutations and copy number alterations could act as prognostic biomarkers for the ICI treatment among metastatic melanoma subtype patients.

• RNA-sequencing of mechanical stress induced osteoarthritis-like damage in aged human cartilage explants treated with the anti-deiodinase iopanoic acid

  The current study aimed to confirm chondroprotective effects of the D2 inhibitor iopanoic acid (IOP) in an ex vivo aged human osteochondral explant model in which injurious mechanical stress is applied to inflict OA-like damage. This dataset contains RNA-seq (Illumina HiSeq X ten) of osteochondral explant cartilage from aged human patients that underwent a joint replacement surgery due to OA (N=10 donors; n=21 explants).

• Mapping genetic effects on cell type-specific chromatin accessibility using single nucleus ATAC-seq

  Gene regulation is highly cell type-specific and understanding the function of non-coding genetic variants associated with complex traits requires molecular phenotyping at cell type resolution. In this study we performed single nucleus ATAC-seq (snATAC-seq) and genotyping in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 13 individuals. We mapped chromatin accessibility QTLs (caQTLs) in each immune cell type and sub-type in a subset of 10 samples of European genetic ancestry.

• scRNA-seq of total bone marrow mononuclear cells and CD3+ T cells of multiple myeloma patients and healthy donors

  The study includes 50 scRNA-seq samples of bone marrow aspirates of 11 multiple myeloma patients and 3 healthy donors generated with the 10x Genomics platform (Chromium Single Cell 3’ Solution v2). For the multiple myeloma patients, paired longitudinal samples are available from initial diagnosis and long-term surivor state. For each patient and timepoint, total bone marrow mononuclear cells and CD3+ T cells have been sequenced separately.

• Relevance of TMPRSS2, CD163/CD206 and CD33 in clinical severity stratification of COVID-19

  Our main objective is to incorporate new markers to classify COVID-19 patients based on mild or severe disease progression. To achieve this, we characterize SNP genotypes in critical genes involved in SARS-CoV infection (ACE2 (rs2285666), MX1 (rs469390), and TMPRSS2 (rs2070788) variants) and study the monocyte population by mass cytometry (CyTOF). Finally, the results obtained will be integrated to search for the best set of predictors of disease aggressiveness.

• Genetic scoring guide for personalized risk assessment in pediatric B-cell precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

  In this study a next-generation sequencing based method was applied to comprehensively screen for recurrent, disease-relevant copy number aberrations in a cohort of Hungarian patients. Diagnostic bone marrow samples from 260 children with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and were investigated by digital multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification using the disease-specific D007 probemix. Whole chromosome gains and losses, as well as subchromosomal copy number aberrations were simultaneously profiled.

• Blood Transcriptome Profiling Links Immunity to Disease Severity in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1)

  Here, we explore the molecular signatures in RNA sequencing data from blood associated with disease severity as measured in Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) patients with less than 400 CTG-repeat length size in the DMPK gene in blood. These DM1 patients participated in the OPTIMISTIC study. This approach involved stratifying those within the OPTIMISTIC study into different patient groups with different degrees of disease severity (as measured by the muscle-impairment rating scale (MIRS)) and assessed at baseline. Patients were divided into groups with mild (MIRS 1–2) and severe (MIRS 3–5) neuromuscular symptoms with different DMPK repeat length characteristics. Therefore these .Bam files are baseline samples from this study.

• Single nuclei sequencing of early, late-term, and early-onset pre-eclamptic decidua and villi.

  Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy, of which the multisystem syndrome pre-eclampsia is the most severe, leading to preterm delivery, maternal mortality, and life-long complications. To elucidate early disease dynamics, we present the first spatio-temporal study comparing single-nuclei transcriptomes of human preterm pre-eclamptic placentae and healthy controls, contextualizing this in a comprehensive study including early and late gestational placentae. This study includes early placentae samples from the fetal part (villi; n=10), maternal part (Decidua; n=3), late placentae samples from healthy pregnancies, villi (n=6), decidua (n=4), and late placentae samples from early-onset preeclamptic pregnancies, villi (n=5) and decidua (n=5).
