• The Role of ZEB2 during Human Neural Crest Cell Formation

  This study examined the role of ZEB2 during human neural crest cell formation. Human neural crest cells were differentiated from WiCell H1 human embryonic stem cells (WA01). Genome-wide transcriptional analysis (RNA-seq) was performed at day-3 and day-5 of human neural crest cell formation following siRNA knockdown of ZEB2 and using an N-terminal ZEB2 mutant H1 human embryonic stem cell line generated using CRISPR genome editing. RNA-seq was also performed on edited and unedited H1 human embryonic stem cells. ATAC-seq analysis was performed at day-3 and day-5 human neural crest differentiated from the N-terminal ZEB2 mutant embryonic stem cell line. Together, these data reveal the regulatory role of ZEB2 in the human neural crest gene regulatory network. We provide raw sequencing files for all RNA-seq and ATAC-seq samples.

• Dysregulation of Alternative Splicing Is a Transcriptomic Feature of Patient Derived Fibroblasts From CAG Repeat Expansion Spinocerebellar Ataxias

  The aim of this study was to characterize transcriptomic changes in patient-derived cell lines of CAG repeat expansion spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs), using RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq), to help us better understand disease pathogenesis. The data consists of two SCA1, two SCA3, and one SCA7 cell lines with 5 unaffected controls. Widespread alternative splicing dysregulation was identified across all SCA cell lines. Alternative splicing analysis also revealed that the dysregulation affected disease-relevant pathways with novel skipped-exon splicing events from the RNA-Seq data validated with RT-PCR. These findings are consistent with a previous study that identified robust transcriptomic dysregulation, specifically at the splicing level, in SCA1, -3, and -7 mouse models even at presymptomatic ages. Therefore, alternative splicing has the potential to be used as a biomarker not only in mouse models, but also patient models of repeat expansion SCAs.

• Whole Exome Sequencing of Uveal Melanoma

  Uveal melanoma is a rare form of melanoma that occurs in the eye and has no effective treatment once metastatic. To further characterize the genomic events driving uveal melanoma, whole exome sequencing was performed on 61 primary tumors derived from enucleations, 3 liver metasases, and paired normal DNA. Recurrent somatic genetic alterations including point mutations, small insertions and deletions, as well as copy number variations were identified. In addition, RNA sequencing of uveal melanoma cell lines expressing shRNAs was performed from total RNA as well as polysome-associated mRNA in order to identify transcripts regulated by EIF1AX at the level of translation.

• Transcriptomic Profiling of Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

  The study is a retrospective transcriptomic profiling of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. The pathologic database was queried for squamous cell carcinoma tumors originating from the anatomic oropharynx (tonsil or tongue base) with available samples from surgical archives. This retrospective RNA sequencing cohort included cases dating prior to the routine implementation of p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing at our institution, therefore, p16 status was not required for inclusion in this study. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples were sent to the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center (LCCC) Translational Genomics Lab (TGL) for RNA isolation using the Maxwell 16 MDx Instrument (Promega AS3000) and the Maxwell 16 LEV RNA FFPE Kit (Promega AS1260) following the manufacturer's protocol (Promega 9FB167). After a pathology review of a hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained slides to identify tumor area, RNA was extracted from unstained slides using macrodissection. Total RNA quality was measured using a NanoDrop spectrophotometer (Thermo Scientific ND-2000C) and a TapeStation 4200 (Agilent G2991AA). Total RNA concentration was quantified using a Qubit 3.0 fluorometer (Life Technologies Q33216). Libraries were prepared with Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA with Ribo-Zero protocol. Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq2500 sequencer. Paired end read data, with read lengths of 75 were collected.

• RNA Sequencing of ECOG-E1308

  This study reports the RNA sequencing of HPV positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma samples from patients with HPV-associated stage III or stage IV cancer of the oropharynx that was surgically resectible. These patients participated in the ECOG-E1308 trial, a phase II trial that studied paclitaxel, cisplatin, and cetuximab followed by cetuximab and two different doses of intensity-modulated radiation therapy.

• HipSci RNA sequencing for embryonic stem cell control lines

  The HipSci project brings together diverse constituents in genomics, proteomics, cell biology and clinical genetics to create a UK national iPS cell resource and use it to carry out cellular genetic studies. In this sub-study we perform RNA sequencing on commercially available embryonic stem cell lines as control samples against which to compare HipSci's iPS cell lines.

• Single cell RNA sequencing of bone marrow mononuclear cells

  Bone marrow aspirates were obtained from patients with relapsed/refractory large B cell lymphoma (rrLBCL), mononuclear cells isolated by ficoll density-gradient centrifugation, and loaded onto a 10X Chromium for single cell RNA-sequencing using 5’ chemistry without prior cryopreservation. Healthy donor bone marrow mononuclear cells were obtained from healthy allogeneic stem cell transplant donors and analyzed following viable cryopreservation.

• Evolution of Core Archetypal Phenotypes in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (HGSOC)

  The evolution of resistance in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) cells in response to chemotherapy is only partially understood. To uncover phenotypic changes associated with chemotherapy resistance, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) or whole-genome sequencing of 23 total patients, with longitudinal samples collected from 9, treatment-naïve samples from 8 patients, and post-treatment samples from 6 patients. Our study revealed that the HGSOC transcriptome could be described using three core archetypal phenotypes, defined as oncogenic tasks that describe majority of the transcriptional data. We implemented a multi-task learning approach to identify the biological tasks of each archetype and identified metabolism and proliferation, cellular defense response, and DNA repair signaling. The “metabolism and proliferation” archetype evolved during treatment and was enriched in cancer cells from patients that received multiple-lines of treatment and had elevated tumor burden indicated by CA-125 levels. The emergence of archetypes was not consistently linked to specific whole-genome driver mutations. However, archetypes were closely associated with sub-clonal clusters at the single-cell level, indicating that cancer cell sub-populations specialize in particular biological tasks. Our study reveals a defining principle of ovarian tumor evolution using temporal scRNA-seq profiles, identifies the key phenotypic features across patients and links metabolic shifts with a response to chemotherapy.

• Identification of gene mutations and fusion genes in patients with Sézary Syndrome

  Sezary syndrome (SS) is a leukemic form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) with an aggressive clinical course. The goal of our study is to understand the genetic basis of the disease by looking for driver gene mutations and fusion genes in 15 erythrodermic patients with circulating Sezary cels, fourteen of them fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of SS. Peripheral blood samples were collected for each patient and CD4+ T-lymphocytes and Granulocytes were isolated. DNA and RNA was extracted for matched normal and tumor materials. Whole exome sequencing was performed on matched normal and tumor tissues of 12 patients and RNA sequencing was performed on 10 patients. For 7 of these patients, we have both exome as well as RNA sequencing data. In this study, we present a complex genomic landscape of Sezary syndrome with several point mutations, copy number variations and fusion events which could contribute to the pathogenesis of SS.
