• Discovery and capture of novel dynamic DNA methylation in human sperm with preferential links to altered folate metabolism

  The sperm DNA methylation landscape is unique and critical for offspring health. If gamete-derived DNA methylation escapes reprogramming in early embryos, epigenetic defects in sperm may be transmitted to the next generation. Current techniques to assess sperm DNA methylation show bias towards CpG dense regions and do not target areas of dynamic methylation, those predicted to be environmentally sensitive and tunable regulatory elements. Thus, this study aim to assess variation in human sperm DNA methylation and design a targeted capture panel to interrogate the human sperm methylome.

• Multiple Tissue Monitoring in Huntington disease - RNAseq fibroblasts

  We examined whether peripheral tissues can serve as a source of readily accessible biological signatures at the RNA and protein level in Huntington disease (HD) patients. Under the MTM-HD study we generated large, high-quality human datasets from skeletal muscle, skin and adipose tissue, as well as primary human fibroblast lines to probe molecular changes in human pre-manifest and early manifest HD patients. We document the involvement of inflammation, energy metabolism and extracellular vesicle homeostasis. This demonstrates the potential to identify biological signatures from peripheral tissues in HD suitable as biomarkers in clinical trials.

• Characterization of chromatin accessibility in metastatic prostate cancer

  The development of resistance to second-generation AR-signaling inhibitors (ARSIs) and progression to metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) represents a huge obstacle to the improvement of patients’ clinical outcomes. Lineage plasticity is a common mechanism that drives the development of mCRPC by changing chromatin conformation at regulatory elements affecting downstream gene activity. ATAC-seq is a popular technique that measures accessible chromatin regions. To better understand of potential epigenomic mechanisms of ARSI resistance in prostate cancer, in this study, we performed ATAC-seq on 70 mCRPC tissue biopsies from the SU2C/PCF West Coast Dream Team (WCDT) cohort.

• Selective advantage of mutant stem cells in human clonal hematopoiesis is associated with attenuated response to inflammation and aging

  In this study we characterised the consequences of DNMT3A- and TET2-mutations in human clonal haematopoiesis. We screened 195 bone marrow samples for mutations by targeted DNA sequencing, and sequenced 99 paired peripheral blood samples to compare mutation detection between bone marrow and blood. We performed single-cell analysis with TARGET-seq+ on 13 samples (4 controls and 9 clonal haematopoiesis samples), which combines single-cell genotyping for targeted mutations with whole transcriptome sequencing on FACS sorted cells. Single-cell genotyping and transcriptomes were sequenced separately and linked by common single-cell identifiers.

• Single-cell proteogenomics of MDS upon AZA

  To study the evolution of the clonal molecular and cellular architecture of MDS upon the treatment with AZA, we performed scDNA-seq of an amplicon panel of 53 genes recurrently mutated in myeloid malignancies, as well as typically lost or gain DNA regions, and scProt-seq of 42 cell-surface proteins to provide a simultaneous landscape of the genetic setting and immunophenotype using the Tapestri platform (MissionBio). We sequenced thousands of cells from 14 MDS patients, where paired bone marrow samples were obtained at the timepoint of diagnosis and after AZA treatment.

• Organ_maturation_in_preparation_for_birth__Peds_RFA__to_develop_a_tissue__resource_and_a_single_cell_atlas_of_organ_development_and_maturation_for__dissemination_among_the_scientific_and_clinical_community__RNA

  Knowledge about abnormal organ development is important to understand pathology and to develop novel treatment approaches for individuals with congenital and acquired disease. Most of our current understanding is based on examination of tissues from the embryo and early foetus, collected from women undergoing termination of pregnancy in the first trimester (third) of pregnancy. There is very little known about normal and abnormal organ development from a developmental perspective during the crucial last two-thirds of pregnancy when much remodelling of foetal tissues occurs. This study will generate a single-cell atlas of late-foetal lungs, blood, heart, bone and immune organs.
