• Systematic comparative analysis of single-nucleotide variant detection methods from single-cell RNA sequencing data

  In this study, we performed systematic comparative analysis of seven widely-used SNV-calling methods, including SAMtools, the GATK Best Practices pipeline, CTAT, FreeBayes, MuTect2, Strelka2 and VarScan2, on both simulated and real single-cell RNA-seq datasets. We generated SMART-seq2 data for 70 CD45- single cells, which were derived from two colorectal cancer patients (P0411 and P0413). The average sequencing depths of these cells were 1.4 million reads per cell. We also generated tumor and adjacent normal bulk WES data, as well as tumor bulk RNA-seq data for these patients.

• Single cell RNA sequencing of colorectal cancer with diverse tissue dissociation protocols or fresh vs. frozen cell preparations.

  To evaluate 3 different tissue dissociation protocols or fresh vs. frozen cell preparations, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on cancer or distant normal tissue dissociates from 2 colorectal cancer patients. Total 18,409 cells from 10 sample preparations were analyzed (5 primary colorectal cancer and 5 matched normal mucosa). The results suggest highly consistent cellular proportions were recovered with different sample preparation methods.

• Tobacco exposure and somatic mutations in normal human bronchial epithelium

  That tobacco smoking causes lung cancer is well-established, but we lack quantitative understanding of its effects on genomes of normal bronchial epithelium. We sequenced whole genomes of 632 colonies derived from single bronchial epithelial cells across 16 subjects. Tobacco smoking is the major influence on mutation burden, adding 1000-10,000+ mutations/cell, massively increasing both between-subject and within-subject variance, and generating several distinct signatures of substitutions and indels. A population of cells in subjects with smoking history had mutation burdens equivalent to that expected for never-smokers: these cells lacked tobacco-specific mutational signatures, were four-fold more frequent in ex-smokers than current smokers, and had significantly longer telomeres than their more mutated counterparts. Driver mutations increased in frequency with age, affecting 4-14% of cells in middle-aged never-smokers. In current smokers, ≥25% of cells carried driver mutations and 0-6% cells had 2 or even 3 drivers. Thus, tobacco smoking increases mutation burden, cell-to-cell heterogeneity and driver mutations, but quitting promotes replenishment of bronchial epithelium from mitotically quiescent cells that have avoided tobacco mutagenesis.

• IBD-dysplasia

  This data set concerns DNA copy number alterations and mutation data from 30 IBD-associated dysplastic lesions and 13 IBD-associated cancers. DNA was isolated from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material. Whole-genome shallow seq and Truseq amplicon cancer panel (Illumina) were used for detection of DNA copy number alterations and gene mutations, respectively.

• Latency and interval therapy affect the evolution in metastatic colorectal cancer

  The cohort of 15 patients included ten patients with available tissue from the primary tumor and ≥1 metastatic site, four patients with pairs of metastases only, and one patient with an anastomotic recurrence five years after initial resection of the primary tumor

• Single cell RNA sequencing of colorectal cancer

  To understand intrinsic cancer cell signatures and the surrounding microenvironemt and their interactions, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on 63,689 cells from 23 patients with 23 primary colorectal cancer and 10 matched normal mucosa samples. Analyzing of primary colorectal cancer and normal mucosa samples show a comprehensive cellular landscape of colon cancer, which is a valuable resource for the development of therapeutic strategies.

• The mutational landscape of normal human endometrial epithelium - Additional Samples

  All normal somatic cells are thought to acquire mutations but understanding of the rates, patterns, causes and consequences of somatic mutation in normal cells is limited. Uterine endometrium adopts multiple physiological states over a lifetime and is lined by a gland-forming epithelium. Whole genome sequencing of normal endometrial glands from women aged 19 to 81 years showed them to be clonal cell populations derived from recent common ancestors, with total mutation burdens that increase with age at ~29 base substitutions/year and which are many-fold lower than endometrial cancers. Normal endometrial glands frequently carry driver mutations in cancer genes. Driver mutation burdens increase with age and correlate negatively with parity. Phylogenetic trees of normal endometrial glands constructed using whole genome sequences indicated that clones with drivers often originate during the first decades and spread to colonise the endometrial epithelial lining. The results show that driver mutation landscapes differ between normal cell types, perhaps shaped by differences in normal tissue physiology, and suggest that the procession of neoplastic changes leading to endometrial cancer is initiated early in life.

• MutWP4: CRUK Grand Challenge Mutographs of Cancer: Gastric Organoids (2019-08-07)

  The Mutographs project aims to advance our understanding of the causes of cancer through studies of mutational signatures. Led by Mike Stratton, together with Paul Brennan, Ludmil Alexandrov, Allan Balmain, David Phillips and Peter Campbell, this large-scale international research endeavour was awarded a Cancer Research UK Grand Challenge. Different patterns of somatic mutation are generated by the different environmental, lifestyle and genetic factors that cause cancer, many of them are still unknown. Within Mutographs, Kings College London will characterise the mutational signatures induced by putative human carcinogens in order to identify the origins of mutational signatures found in human cancers. To achieve this human organoid cell cultures will be exposed to a representative catalogue of known or suspected human carcinogens and mutagens and, using whole genome sequencing, the patterns of mutations induced by them will be determined. Somatic mutational signatures will be subsequently extracted by non-negative matrix factorisation methods and correlated with exposure data. Through an enhanced understanding of cancer aetiology, Mutographs unprecedented effort is anticipated to outline modifiable risk factors, lead to new approaches to prevent cancer, and provide opportunities to empower early detection, refine high-risk groups and contribute to further therapeutic development. . This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2019-08-07.
