• Human Dorsal Root Ganglion RNA Landscape Profiling for Neuropathic and Chronic Pain

  Bulk and spatial RNA sequencing were performed on human Dorsal Root Ganglia (DRGs), peripheral sensory nerves and nodose ganglia and relative gene abundances were calculated. Various analyses were performed: Human DRG gene expression profiles were contrasted with a panel of gene expression profiles of relevant tissues in human and mouse (integrating, among other sources, datasets from ENCODE and GTex) in order to identify. DRG-enriched gene expression, co-expression modules of DRG-expressed genes, and key transcriptional regulators in humans. Contrasting the human and mouse DRG transcriptomes to identify DRG-enriched gene expression patterns that were conserved between human and mouse, identifying putative cell types of expression of these genes, and potential known drugs that might target the corresponding gene products. Characterization of non-coding RNA profile of human and mouse DRGs. Characterization of DRG-enriched alternative splicing and alternative transcription start site usage based transcript variants in humans and mouse, and the overlap between these two species. Contrasting of human DRG and GTex human tibial nerve samples to identify putative axonally transported mRNAs in sensory neurons. Human DRG and peripheral nerves transcriptomes from donors suffering from neuropathic and/or chronic pain were contrasted with controls to identify. Differentially expressed genes, pathways and regulators path play a potential role in neuronal plasticity, electrophysiological activity, immune signaling and response. Predictive models (Random Forests) were built to jointly predict the sex and pain state of samples based on information contained solely in autosomal gene expression profile. Gene co-expression modules were identified and gene set enrichment analysis performed.to identify sample - pathway associations, and to broadly characterize plasticity in human DRG cell types. Spatial transcriptomics was performed on human DRGs and nodose ganglia to obtain near single-neuron resolution. We identified distinct clusters of human DRG sensory neurons. We characterized the expression of different gene families (e.g., GPCRs, sodium channels, potassium channels, etc.). We investigated differences between male and female neurons.

• RNA-Sequencing of B-Lymphoblastic Leukemia with Glucocorticoids and PI3K Delta Inhibition

  Mononuclear cells were isolated from bone marrow or peripheral blood of 7 pediatric subjects with B-lymphoblastic leukemia at the time of diagnosis. To determine the effect of PI3K delta inhibition on glucocorticoid-induced gene regulation, B-lymphoblastic leukemia cells were treated with glucocorticoids +/- the PI3K delta inhibitor, idelalisib, for 24 hours prior to RNA extraction and sequencing. Biological replicates were performed for 4 of the 7 subjects; 2 of these subjects had specimens demonstrating an additive response to the combination of glucocorticoids and idelalisib in viability testing in vitro, and 2 subjects' specimens demonstrated a synergistic response. All 7 subjects were analyzed together and the 4 specimens with biological replicates were also evaluated in an additional analysis. An average of 40 million reads per specimen and treatment condition were obtained. We compared gene expression in each treatment condition to vehicle-treated cells and expression in glucocorticoid or idelalisib only treated cells to combination treated cells. Using a high dose of dexamethasone (25 or 50 nM) and an equivalent dose of prednisolone, we found that the addition of idelalisib (500 nM) enhanced prednisolone-induced gene regulation but not dexamethasone-induced gene regulation. Surprisingly, the specimens with additive response to combination therapy demonstrated enhancement of prednisolone-induced gene regulation with the addition of idelalisib, while the specimens with synergistic responses did not. Raw sequencing data (FASTQ) and count tables will be available through dbGaP.

• High Glucose Macrophage Exosomes Enhance Atherosclerosis by Driving Cellular Proliferation and Hematopoiesis

  In this study, we aimed to explore whether hyperglycemia alters inflammatory properties and microRNA levels in immune cells as well as their extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a mode of intercellular communication in cardiovascular disease. To this end, we isolated EVs from the plasma of diabetic mice as well as from human subjects that included 7 healthy individuals (control), 5 individuals with diagnosed peripheral arterial disease but no diabetes, 9 diabetic individuals with no vascular disease and 5 diabetic subjects with established vascular disease. The human plasma EVs were examined for the content of microRNA and their capacity to communicate signaling when incubated with cultured human THP1 macrophages. Subsequently, the plasma EV-exposed macrophages were examined for total RNA sequencing to identify inflammatory and molecular pathways targeted by the human EVs.

• Single Cell Transcriptomic Data from CD4+ T Cells from Children with MIS-C

  Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a severe complication of SARS-CoV-2 infections in the pediatric population characterized by fever, multi-organ involvement and systemic inflammation. Single-cell RNA sequencing was used to evaluate the transcriptomic signature of CD4+ T cells obtained from the peripheral blood of patients with MIS-C before (n=3) and after (n=5) immunomodulatory treatment, along with pediatric controls (n=4). Compared to controls and treated children with MIS-C, T cells obtained from pre-treatment MIS-C patients upregulated genes associated with activation, such as NF-kB signaling. This single-cell transcriptomic data was used in the context of a larger study entitled, "Notch1-CD22-Dependent Immune Dysregulation in the SARSCoV2-Associated Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children."

• Multimodal Mapping of the Immune Landscape in Human Pancreatic Cancer

  Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is characterized by an immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment that has rendered it largely refractory to immunotherapy. We used single-cell RNA sequencing on patient tumors and matched blood, and we uncovered a previously unappreciated, complex environment of immune-suppressive cellular interactions. These experiments reveal immune checkpoint expression heterogeneity on individual patient T cells, with corresponding ligands on neoplastic and myeloid cells. TIGIT was upregulated on tumor infiltrating CD8+ T cells and was the only checkpoint receptor consistently expressed by exhausted CD8+ T cells. Clinical annotation of the samples revealed that the exhausted signature is most prominent in patients with advanced stages of disease. Our findings suggest individualized combination therapy, involving anti-TIGIT therapies, may be necessary to extend the benefits of immunotherapy to pancreatic cancer patients.

• Dysregulation of Naive T Cell Quiescence during Aging

  TEA-seq (novel trimodal single-cell analysis of mRNA transcripts, surface protein epitopes, and chromatin accessibility) was performed on CD3+ T cells isolated from peripheral blood of healthy pediatric (11–13 yrs, n = 8) and older adult (55–65 yrs, n = 8) female donors. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was additionally performed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from a healthy cohort of 16 pediatric, 16 young adult (25–35 yrs), and 16 older adult donors with equal sex distribution. Using these data, we dissected the compositional and molecular alterations within the T cell compartment across the spectrum of healthy age, showing broad transcriptional and epigenetic alterations within the T cell compartment of older adults compared to children, as well as a novel population of pediatric-specific CD8aa T cells.

• ECM-free patient-derived organoids preserve diverse prostate cancer lineages and uncover in vitro-enriched cell types

  Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) hold promise for modeling various cancers, yet their application in prostate cancer (PCa) has been limited due to low culture success and the predominance of non-tumor-like cells. Using 164 PCa samples and optimizing culture conditions, we demonstrate that an extracellular matrix (ECM)-free culture method improves PDO take-rates, fostering cell populations with luminal and PCa-specific characteristics. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) reveals that these ECM-free PDOs closely mirror their original tumors at the transcriptomic level and maintain a diverse array of tumor cell types, unlike traditional Matrigel-based cultures which predominantly yield benign-like cells. This study introduces a PCa PDO single-cell atlas, providing a valuable resource for advancing prostate cancer research.

• IMCISION RNAseq

  RNA sequencing could be performed on all 32 baseline and 30 on-treatment primary tumor biopsies. Based on gene-set enrichment analysis, the epithelial to mesenchymal transition signature was enriched in baseline tumors of patients without MPR, though its expression was insufficient to predict ICB response. Baseline and on-treatment IFNγ and T-cell signature expression (Z-score) were not significantly higher in patients with an MPR.­­­ Baseline primary tumor hypoxia-associated gene expression in IMCISION did not predict ICB response. However, on-treatment biopsies of MPR tumor samples showed significantly lower hypoxia gene expression when compared to non-MPR samples. Moreover, in a paired analysis of baseline and corresponding on-treatment samples, a significant decrease of hypoxia-related gene expression was observed in MPR biopsies, while this decrease was absent in non-MPR biopsies.

• Identification and Characterization of Skin-Resident Memory T cells in Patients with Melanoma-Associated Vitiligo

  Metastatic melanoma patients who develop melanoma-associated vitiligo, an autoimmune cutaneous side effect after receiving immunotherapy, have better overall survival than those who do not develop vitiligo. The objective of this study is to determine the tumor-specific memory T cell responses in the skin, tumor and blood of melanoma patients with vitiligo. Matched melanoma tumor, distant vitiligo-affected skin, and blood were collected and sorted for T cells to perform paralleled single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-cell TCR sequencing (scTCR-seq) on the day of tissue collection. The transcriptional analysis identified three resident memory T (TRM) cell subsets which were shared between tumors and vitiligo-affected skin. scRNA-seq identified CD8+ T-cell clonotypes in tumors that co-existed as TRM in skin and as effector memory T (TEM) cells in blood. This study revealed that long-term melanoma survivors maintained memory T cell responses as broadly-distributed TRM and TEM compartments.

• A Comprehensive Platform for Analyzing Longitudinal Multi-Omics Data

  PALMO (Platform for Analyzing Longitudinal Multi-omics data) is a platform for analyzing longitudinal data from bulk as well as single cell. It allows to identify inter-, intra-donor variations in genes over longitudinal time points. The analysis can be done on bulk expression dataset without known cell type information or single cell with cell type or user defined groups. It allows to infer stable and variable features in a given donor and each cell type or a user defined group. The outlier analysis can be performed to identify technical/biological perturbed samples in a donor or a participant. Further, differential analysis can be performed to decipher time-wise changes in gene expression in a cell type. The data that is available in the dbGaP is the demo longitudinal samples used in the study, which includes hashed raw fastq files for single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) and non-hashed fastq files for single-cell ATAC-sequencing (scATAC) experiment.

• Functional Dynamics of the Elderly Gut Microbiome During Probiotic Consumption

  A mechanistic understanding of the health benefits conferred by consumption of probiotic bacteria has been limited by our knowledge of the resident gut microbiota and its interaction with the host. We used fecal samples from a study of twelve healthy individuals aged 65-80 to characterize the structure and functional dynamics of the gut microbiota associated with consumption of the single-organism probiotic, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG ATCC 53103 (LGG). Samples were collected prior to probiotic consumption (day 0), on day 28 immediately after consuming 10^10 CFU of LGG twice daily for 28 days and day 56, one month after stopping LGG consumption. Our integrative approach incorporated bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequencing, whole-community expression profiling using RNA-seq, and metagenomic sequencing. We highlight the value of combinatorial 'omics methods and concomitant high-resolution informatics to probe the role that probiotics may play on the structure and function of the resident microbiota.

• Integrative Age-Related Changes in Genome and Epigenome in Human Lung in Relation to Smoking

  The Integrative Age-Related Changes in Genome and Epigenome in Human Lung in Relation to Smoking study was designed to assess DNA methylation and gene expression profiles in cytologically normal bronchial progenitor "basal" cells. The cells were collected from 54 consented bronchoscopy specimen donors at standard airway locations during clinically indicated bronchoscopy, and then outgrown in primary cultures. DNA methylation profiles were assessed using Enzymatic-Methyl sequencing (EM-seq: 96% genomic coverage, 7.5x depth) in all 54 donors' samples. The gene expression profile was evaluated by bulk RNA-Seq in 39 donors' samples. The study participants were at the ages of 33 - 81 years old at enrollment. Of the 54 donors, 31 were newly diagnosed with lung cancer. As for tobacco smoke exposure, there were 19 current, 18, former, and 17 never smokers. There are 26 subjects whose specimens were used for single cell whole-genome sequencing study phs002758.

• Integrative Somatic and Germline Computational Biology to Redefine Clinical Actionability in Solid Tumors

  Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are rare cancers that arise in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas. The fundamental mechanisms driving gastroenteropancreatic NETs (GEP-NETs) growth remain incompletely elucidated; however, the heterogeneous clinical behavior of GEP-NETs suggests that both cellular lineage dynamics and tumor microenvironment influence tumor pathophysiology. Here, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of fresh resections of GEP-NETs, including four pancreatic NETs, three small intestinal NETs, and one perigastric NET. We used single-cell sequencing to investigate the tumor and immune cellular landscapes of GEP-NET patients. Malignant GEP-NET gene and regulon expression was compared with normal, gastrointestinal endocrine cell differentiation and fate determination stages. We further characterized immune-immune and immune-tumor interaction networks within GEP-NETs, identifying novel therapeutic opportunities in the myeloid compartment of the microenvironment. Our findings highlight the transcriptomic heterogeneity that distinguishes the cellular landscapes of GEP-NET anatomic subtypes and reveal potential avenues for future precision medicine therapeutics.

• Integrative Analysis for Multi-Omics Data in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer

  We conducted epigenetic and transcriptomic mapping of primary non-small cell lung tumors and non-neoplastic tissues. 20 non-neoplastic lung tissues and 18 non-small cell lung tumors were obtained from Biorepository and Tissue Technology Shared Resource at Moores Cancer Center, UC San Diego. All tumor samples were in pathological stages I and II. 8 pairs of samples were "matched", meaning that the tumor and normal tissues came from the same patient. Microfluidic oscillatory washing–based chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (MOWChIP-seq) was used to profile the binding of H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K27ac and H3K27me3. SmartSeq-2 was used to map mRNA expression. We identified a large number of differentially modified regions for both epigenetic and transcriptomic markers between tumors and normal tissues. Deep learning model showed extensive transcription factor network rewiring. Raw sequencing data of the ChIP-seq and RNA-seq libraries are available through this dbGaP submission.

• Ipilimumab and Decitabine in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Myelodysplastic Syndrome or Acute Myeloid Leukemia

  The NCI Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN)/Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP) 10026 study (NCT02890329) tested combined ipilimumab and decitabine treatment in two cohorts: Arm A consisted of patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Arm B consisted of patients with advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or AML that did not previously undergo stem cell transplantation. During the study, peripheral blood and bone marrow samples were obtained from study participants at study entry (screening), following the first lead-in cycle of decitabine monotherapy, during combined treatment with decitabine and ipilimumab, and at the end of treatment.This study tested the combination of the CTLA-4 blocking antibody ipilimumab and the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor decitabine in advanced myeloid disease in the transplant-naive and post-transplant context. The samples were used for bulk and single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) as well as whole exome sequencing (WES).

• Pooled Mutant KRAS-Targeted Long Peptide Vaccine Combined with Nivolumab and Ipilimumab for Patients with Resected MMR-p Colorectal and Pancreatic Cancer

  We developed INtraCEllular Reverse Transcription with Sorting and sequencing (INCERTS), an approach to combine molecular indexing of receptor repertoires within intact cells and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). We demonstrate that INCERTS enables efficient processing of millions of cells from pooled human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples while retaining robust association between T cell receptor (TCR) sequences and cellular phenotypes. We used INCERTS to discover antigen-specific TCRs from patients with cancer immunized with a novel mutant KRAS peptide vaccine. After ex vivo stimulation, 28 uniquely barcoded samples were pooled prior to FACS into peptide-reactive and non-reactive CD4+ and CD8+ populations. Combining complementary patient-matched single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data enabled retrieval of full-length, paired TCR alpha and beta chain sequences for future validation of therapeutic utility. Data available through dbGaP include scRNA-seq with matched TCR-seq.

• Adjuvant nivolumab in resected esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer: exploratory biomarker analyses from CheckMate 577

  Adjuvant nivolumab demonstrated a significant improvement in disease-free survival (DFS; primary endpoint) versus placebo in patients with resected esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer and residual pathologic disease following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in the phase III CheckMate 577 study, leading to global approval and widespread adoption. Exploratory biomarker analyses were performed using whole-exome sequencing, RNA sequencing, and immunohistochemistry. Hazard ratios for DFS favored nivolumab versus placebo in patients with higher inflammation and proliferation gene expression signature scores; lower M2 macrophage, endothelial, and stromal GES scores; and higher densities of CD3+/CD8- T cells and natural killer cells. Assessments of pre-CRT and post-CRT tumor tissue found post-CRT increases in programmed death ligand 1 combined positive score in 51% of patients, which appeared to be associated with greater DFS benefit. Through these analyses, we identified patient subpopulations that appear to derive improved DFS benefit from adjuvant nivolumab in this setting.

• Nivolumab plus chemotherapy or ipilimumab in gastroesophageal cancer: CheckMate 649 biomarker analyses

  First-line nivolumab-plus-chemotherapy demonstrated superior overall survival (OS) versus chemotherapy for advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (CheckMate 649). Nivolumab-plus-ipilimumab provided durable responses and higher survival rates versus chemotherapy; however, the prespecified OS significance boundary was not met. To identify biomarkers predictive of differential efficacy outcomes, exploratory analyses were performed using whole-exome sequencing and RNA sequencing. Nivolumab-based therapies demonstrated improved efficacy versus chemotherapy in hypermutated and, to a lesser degree, Epstein Bar Virus-positive tumors compared with chromosomally unstable and genomically stable tumors. Within the KRAS-altered subgroup, only patients treated with nivolumab-plus-chemotherapy demonstrated improved OS benefit versus chemotherapy. Low stroma gene expression signature scores were associated with OS benefit with nivolumab-based regimens; high regulatory T-cell signatures were associated with OS benefit only with nivolumab-plus-ipilimumab. Our analyses suggest that distinct and overlapping pathways contribute to the efficacy of nivolumab-based regimens in gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.
