• What is metadata?

  What is metadata? Data represents units of information and metadata can be seen, simply put, as data about other data. For example, in a simple experiment in which a patient genome was sequenced, there are multiple and diverse fields of metadata: from the biological sex of the patient to the sequencing platform used. Another way to understand metadata, following our genomic experiment example, is going through the different layers of (meta)data: One of the basic units of information (data) would be the sequence of nucleotides (e.g. GCTGG and GCCGG). This DNA sequence can be contextualised within a chromosome by providing its locus (e.g. β-globin gene). This data, the locus, is about other data, the sequence of nucleotides, which would render it metadata. We can go one step further, and provide more context, by giving the associated phenotype of each of these sequences: GCTGG corresponds to a healthy individual, while GCCGG corresponds to a person with β-thalassaemia. Once again, this data is contextualising the data we have provided up to this point, which makes it metadata. With this simple example, what we are doing is adding layers of data that describe the ones below. Had we given the sequences alone, little would be possible from the researchers' point of view. But, now that the data has its accompanying metadata, a researcher could compare both sequences and their phenotypes to infer a possible cause of the disorder. Each layer of information broadens the possible applications of the data. Now that we know what metadata is, it is time to emphasise the importance of submitting good quality metadata. The quality of the metadata will determine whether the data is usable, discoverable, and interpretable by researchers and clinicians. One example that highlights the importance of good quality metadata is the description of biological sex of a patient: while the terms "female," "girl," or "woman" all represent the same concept, they are not harmonised. These different representations of a concept can create confusion and errors in data analysis. By applying standard definitions and terminologies to biological sex metadata, we can avoid misunderstandings and facilitate the integration of different datasets.  In order to comply with the FAIR principles and, more specifically, to allow for the (meta)data to be interoperable (i.e. used universally and unambiguously), we need to place some standards onto the (meta)data EGA  archives. These can be as simple as asserting that the given patient's biological sex is one of the correct terms (e.g. female or male); or as complex as multiple layers and combinations of validation steps with existing records. You can find further details on how EGA manages these standards on our metadata model page.

• The double-hit signature identifies double-hit diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with genetic events cryptic to FISH​

  High-grade B-cell lymphomas with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements (HGBL-DH/THs) include a group of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) with inferior outcomes after standard chemoimmunotherapy. We recently described a gene expression signature that identifies 27% of germinal center B-cell DLBCLs (GCB-DLBCLs) as having a double-hit-like expression pattern (DHITsig) and inferior outcomes; however, only half of these cases have both MYC and BCL2 translocations identifiable using standard breakapart fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Here, 20 DHITsig+ GCB-DLBCLs apparently lacking MYC and/or BCL2 rearrangements underwent whole-genome sequencing. This revealed 6 tumors with MYC or BCL2 rearrangements that were cryptic to breakapart FISH. Copy-number analysis identified 3 tumors with MYC and 6 tumors with MIR17HG gains or amplifications, both of which may contribute to dysregulation of MYC and its downstream pathways. Focal deletions of the PVT1 promoter were observed exclusively among DHITsig+ tumors lacking MYC translocations; this may also contribute to MYC overexpression. These results highlight that FISH fails to identify all HGBL-DH/THs, while revealing a range of other genetic mechanisms potentially underlying MYC dysregulation in DHITsig+ DLBCL, suggesting that gene expression profiling is more sensitive for identifying the biology underlying poor outcomes in GCB-DLBCL.

• Polyclonal selection of immune checkpoint mutations in thyroid autoimmunity - ExomeNanoSeq

  Our immune system contains multiple tolerance checkpoints to prevent the activation of self-reactive lymphocytes. How some lymphocytes escape these constraints to cause autoimmune disease remains poorly understood. A long-standing hypothesis in autoimmunity posits that somatic mutations in immune regulatory genes may enable self-reactive lymphocytes to bypass tolerance checkpoints. However, testing this hypothesis has proved challenging due to technical limitations in detecting somatic mutations in polyclonal cell populations. Here, we use deep whole-exome and targeted NanoSeq, a highly accurate single-molecule DNA sequencing protocol, to comprehensively search for driver mutations in autoimmune thyroid disease. This revealed a remarkably high number of B cell clones convergently acquiring loss-of-function somatic mutations in key immune checkpoint genes TNFRSF14 (also known as HVEM) and CD274 (encoding PD-L1), as well as less frequent driver mutations in a diversity of other immune genes. In highly inflamed biopsies, we detected tens to hundreds of independent immune-checkpoint mutant clones. Laser capture microdissection, methylation sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, immunohistochemistry and single-nucleus DNA sequencing localised these mutations to non-naive B cells and revealed frequent co-occurrence of drivers in single cells. We found widespread TNFRSF14 biallelic loss in mutant B cells, and several clones with as many as 4-6 driver mutations. Whilst each clone accounts for a small proportion of cells (typically <1%), the myriad mutant clones in each donor collectively amounted to a substantial fraction of B cells harbouring one or more driver mutations. Our results support the hypothesis that somatic mutations in autoimmune lymphocytes may allow them to escape tolerance constraints through a polyclonal cascade of somatic evolution. These findings provide new insights into the molecular basis of autoimmune disease and suggest novel diagnostic and therapeutic avenues.
