• Region-specific Transcriptome Analysis of the Human Retina and Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE)/Choroid

  Proper spatial differentiation of retinal cell types is necessary for normal human vision. Many retinal diseases, such as Best disease and male germ cell associated kinase (MAK)-associated retinitis pigmentosa, preferentially affect distinct topographic regions of the retina. While much is known about the distribution of cell types in the retina, the distribution of molecular components across the posterior pole of the eye has not been well-studied. To investigate regional difference in molecular composition of ocular tissues, we assessed differential gene expression across the temporal, macular, and nasal retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid of human eyes using RNA-Seq. RNA from temporal, macular, and nasal retina and RPE/choroid from four human donor eyes was extracted, poly-A selected, fragmented, and sequenced as 100 bp read pairs. Digital read files were mapped to the human genome and analyzed for differential expression using the Tuxedo software suite. Retina and RPE/choroid samples were clearly distinguishable at the transcriptome level. Numerous transcription factors were differentially expressed between regions of the retina and RPE/choroid. Photoreceptor-specific genes were enriched in the peripheral samples, while ganglion cell and amacrine cell genes were enriched in the macula. Within the RPE/choroid, RPE-specific genes were upregulated at the periphery while endothelium associated genes were upregulated in the macula. Consistent with previous studies, BEST1 expression was lower in macular than extramacular regions. The MAK gene was expressed at lower levels in macula than in extramacular regions, but did not exhibit a significant difference between nasal and temporal retina. The regional molecular distinction is greatest between macula and periphery and decreases between different peripheral regions within a tissue. Datasets such as these can be used to prioritize candidate genes for possible involvement in retinal diseases with regional phenotypes.

• Integrative Single-Cell Analysis of Transcriptome, Epigenome, and Lineage in HIV Latency and Activation

  With the development of triple combination antiretroviral therapy, routine HIV treatment eliminates nearly all actively infected cells. Nevertheless, the small reservoir of latently infected cells, which can remain dormant for long periods of time before becoming active and producing new virus particles, represents a crucial barrier to completely curing the disease. Identifying markers that identify latently infected cells or the biochemical factors that control latency activation could enable the effective use of a “shock and kill” strategy, where specific targeting or activation of latently infected cells eliminates the viral reservoir. Our recent work suggests that the global transcriptomic and epigenomic changes during hematopoietic differentiation affect viral latency and activation. Additionally, we recently found that global inhibition of histone deacetylase activity increases viral activation in these cells, further implicating epigenomic changes during activation. These results raise fundamental questions: What are the markers of latently infected cells? How do the transcriptomic and epigenomic states of a cell affect latency and activation? How does the differentiation state relate to viral latency? Here, we leverage our experimental platform for identifying latently and actively infected cells, single-cell transcriptome and epigenome sequencing, and our recently developed computational integration methods to investigate these questions. Our interdisciplinary team combines expertise in HIV basic science, HIV clinical treatment, and bioinformatics to develop an experimental and computational framework for integrated gene expression, chromatin accessibility, and lineage into a single picture of viral latency and activation. Specifically, this project will (1) use single-cell RNA-seq and single-cell ATAC-seq to map the diversity of infected cells, (2) investigate the relationship between hematopoietic differentiation state and viral activation, (3) determine viral integration sites through single-cell RNA-seq, (4) computationally integrate single-cell transcriptome and epigenome profiles, and (5) computationally infer cell lineage relationships among viral genomes and infected cells. To accomplish these goals, we will carry out the following aims: (1) Characterize lineage, transcriptomic and epigenomic diversity of single latently and actively infected primary cells. (2) Investigate latency and activation during in vitro differentiation. (3) Survey single cell diversity of re-activated and in vitro infected cells from cART-suppressed patients. Together, these aims will produce a comprehensive, integrated transcriptomic and epigenomic atlas of the HIV reservoir, identify DNA and RNA biomarkers of latency, and characterize clonal expansion patterns. Our work also develops a broadly applicable experimental and computational framework, laying a foundation for the discovery of novel insights into HIV latency and activation.

• Bulk RNAseq from in vitro generated macrophages and T cells

  Monocyte derived macrophages were polarised into M1 or M2 using IFNg+ ILP or IL-4 respectively (n =4) . Pan T cells were cultured with or without IL-2 for 4 days (n=4 - 6). Pan T cells were co-cultured with THP1 tumour cells for 20 hours in the presence or absence of ImmTAC molecules and in the presence or absence of M2 macrophages. Sorted T cells and macrophage populations prior and post co-culture were analysed by bulk RNA sequencing (60 million reads per sample) using the Illumina NovaSeq system

• FASTQ Files from Breast Tumor Biopsies Collected Across Five Timepoints in the PROMETEO Phase II Trial

  The dataset contains RNA sequencing raw data from tumor biopsies collected at five time points during the SOLTI-1503 PROMETEO trial: baseline (pre-NAC), post-NAC screening, Cycle 2 Day 1, Cycle 3 Day 1, and surgery. The study intervention consisted of intratumoral injections of T-VEC followed by intravenous administrations of atezolizumab prior to surgery. The data is obtained from tumor samples of patients included in the study: female breast cancer patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, including both triple-negative and Luminal B-like subtypes. Each sample includes raw paired-end RNAseq reads (~110 million reads per library) aligned to the GRCh38/hg38 reference genome

• Massive parallel RNA sequencing of highly purified mesenchymal cells derived from bone marrow specimens of 4 Shwachman-Diamond syndrome cases

  Highly purified mesenchymal cells (CD45-/7AAD-/CD235a-/CD31-/CD271+/CD105+) were prospectively FACS-isolated from bone marrow specimens of 4 Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS) cases. This data set, comprising 4 SDS cases, is used as complement to 45 low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LRMDS) and 3 Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) cases to demonstrate aberrant inflammatory signaling as a common mechanism in pre-leukemia syndromes to induce genotoxic stress in hematopoietic stem cells. In addition this data set is used to determine different overlapping gene expression signatures in pre-leukemia syndromes compared to gene expression profiles of highly purified mesenchymal cells of healthy donors.

• Gene expression profiles of single disseminated breast cancer cells

  A set of 56 EpCAM-positive cells derived from bone marrow aspirates of breast cancer patients or patients without a cancererous disease (30 cells from 21 M0-stage and 11 cells from five M1-stage breast cancer patients, 15 cells from seven non-cancer patients serving as controls). EpCAM-positive cells from breast cancer patients were considered disseminated tumor cells as they harbored copy number alterations and showed high expression of the epithelial marker EpCAM and the mammary luminal progenitor marker KIT in comparison to EpCAM-positive bone marrow cells from non-cancer patients. Paired-end RNA-Sequencing of the samples was performed on Illumina NovaSeq6000, raw data are provided in the Fastq format.

• ScRNA-seq of PBMC and whole blood samples reveales a dysregulated myeloid cell compartment in severe COVID-19

  In a dual-center, two-cohort study, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing of whole blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells to determine changes in immune cell composition and activation in mild vs. severe COVID-19 over time. This study provides detailed insights into the systemic immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection and reveals profound alterations in the myeloid cell compartment associated with severe COVID-19.
