• Genomics of Relapsed Small Cell Lung Cancer Progression

  Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for nearly 15% of all patients with lung cancer. Though the response to initial therapy is favorable in many patients, a majority of patients go on to develop recurrent disease which is very difficult to treat. The response rates to chemotherapy are very low and most patients succumb to relapsed SCLC within a few months. Virtually no progress has been made in the treatment of SCLC in the last three decades. In order to better understand the molecular alterations in relapsed SCLC, we have generated exome and RNA sequence from normal, primary tumor and relapse tissues of SCLC patients.

• Integrative analysis of whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing and methylome array of 20 carcinosarcomas.

  Carcinosarcomas of the female genital tract, or GCS, are uncommon but clinically highly aggressive neoplasms with biphasic histology of carcinomatous (C) and sarcomatous (S) elements. These tumors represent a unique model to study the genetic and phenotypic diversity of cancer cells and the link between cellular plasticity and resistance to therapy. The aim of ICGC GCS program is to genomically characterize C and S components of 20 tumors, from endometrium or ovary, through an integrative analysis of whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing and methylome array.

• Tumor-resident T-cell regulate responses to checkpoint blockade immunotherapies

  In cancer models, CD103+CD8 TRM cells are implicated in the response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy, and a subset of CD4 TRM cells expressing the integrin CD49a is required for response to anti-CTLA-4 immunotherapy. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing on tumour-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TILs) isolated from colon carcinoma et unsupervised analyses reveal several TRM populations.

• Integrated single-cell profiling dissects cell-state-specific enhancer landscapes of human tumor infiltrating T cells.

  Despite extensive studies on the chromatin landscape of exhausted T cells, the transcriptional wiring underlying functional and dysfunctional states of human tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) is incompletely understood. Here, we identify tissue-specific and general gene-regulatory landscapes in the wide breadth of CD8+ TIL functional states covering four cancer entities using single-cell chromatin profiling. We map enhancer-promoter interactions in human TILs by integrating single-cell chromatin accessibility with single-cell RNA-seq data from tumor entity-matching samples and prioritize key elements by super enhancer analysis. Our analysis reveals a human core chromatin trajectory to TIL dysfunction and identifies key enhancers, transcriptional regulators, and deregulated target genes involved in this process. Finally, we validate enhancer regulation at loci encoding PD1, TCF1, and TIM3 by targeting non-coding regulatory elements with potent CRISPR activators and repressors. In summary, our study advances the understanding of molecular regulation of TIL (dys-)function and provides a framework for modulating immunotherapeutic relevant TIL genes via their enhancers.

• RNA-Seq of human longitudinal whole blood samples from PCR-positive and PCR-negative recent household contacts of COVID-19 index cases.

  Little is known about the transcriptomic profile of individuals who are exposed to SARS-CoV-2 yet resist becoming PCR positive. To investigate this, longitudinal whole-blood samples were taken (0, 7, 14, and 28 days after enrolment) from PCR positive and PCR negative SARS-CoV-2-naïve household contacts who were recently exposed to a COVID-19 index. Samples were also taken from pre- and post-pandemic unexposed controls. Total RNA was extracted from PAXgene tubes before undergoing poly(A) selection followed by globin and rRNA depletion. DNA libraries were constructed using the NEBNext® Ultra™ II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina. All samples were then sequenced across 2 flowcells of an Illumina HiSeq 4000.

• RNA-Seq of Whole Blood from Pediatric Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) Patients

  The aim of this study is to define the immune cell transcriptome by next generation RNA sequencing in blood from individuals with SCA, in comparison to healthy African American controls. This study has a cross-sectional case-control design. We will compare the transcriptome profiles of blood mononuclear cells from healthy age-matched African American children without cardiovascular disease or risk factors (“Controls”) to those of children with SCA, age 5 -21 years, who are not receiving chronic red blood cell transfusions or hydroxyurea therapy to identify genes that are differentially expressed in SCA.

• Genomic Analysis of Nucleic Acid Sequences from Pancreatic Cancer

  Our study aims to perform multi-omics analysis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. We performed dual single-cell RNA sequencing and whole genome sequencing on fresh tumor specimens and dual bulk RNA-sequencing and 16S amplicon sequencing on frozen tumor specimens to identify human and non-human nucleic acid sequences. Additionally, we identified microbial sequences and found that bacterial taxonomic profiles from the same sample strongly correlated across technologies.

• Characterization of MCSP+ melanoma DCC and MelDCC lines

  To dissect the sequence of genotypic and phenotypic progression during early metastatic colonization, we searched for the earliest detectable disseminated cancer cells (DCC) and identified MCSP+ melanoma cells as strong candidates for metastasis founder cells (MFC) in lymph nodes. We isolated MCSP+ DCC from various stages of metastatic colony-formation, performed scRNA-seq and unravelled their phenotypic progression. Further we performed bulk sequencing on patient-derived DCC models (MelDCC) and showed that they exhibit an immunosuppressive activity on CD8 T cells.

• untargeted whole genome sequencing - Evaluation and correction of GC biases in cell-free DNA at the fragment level

  These are aligned paired-end reads from Illumina NovaSeq 6000 whole-genome sequencing of 4 cfDNA samples extracted from blood plasma (plasma-Seq). Three samples from patients with breast cancer, prostate cancer, or colorectal cancer and one sample from a healthy individual were aligned to GRCh38 (GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38_no_alt_plus_hs38d1_analysis_set). The observed GC bias is different in each of these cfDNA samples which leads to different average GC content per sample. This bias is corrected using the GCparagon commandline tool.

• Epigenome maps of time-resolved monocyte to macrophage differentiation and innate immune memory

  Innate immune memory is the phenomenon whereby innate immune cells such as monocytes or macrophages undergo functional reprogramming after exposure to microbial components such as LPS. We apply an integrated epigenomic approach to characterize the molecular events involved in LPS-induced tolerance in a time dependent manner. ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, WGBS and ATAC-seq data were generated. This analysis identified epigenetic programs in tolerance and trained macrophages, and the potential transcription factors involved. Experimental set-up Time-course in vitro culture of human monocytes. Two innate immune memory states can be induced in culture through an initial exposure of primary human monocytes to either LPS or BG for 24 hours, followed by removal of stimulus and differentiation to macrophages for an additional 5 days. Cells were collected at baseline (day 0), 1 hour, 4 hour, 24 hour and 6 days.

• MicroRNA expression in malignant and benign breast tissue – the Norwegian Women and Cancer study

  The Norwegian Women and Cancer study (NOWAC) is a prospective study which started in 1991 and includes 172 000 Norwegian women aged 30-70 years. The study is based on questionnaires with information on variables of importance to breast cancer risk. Later, about 49 500 samples of peripheral blood have been collected (the NOWAC postgenome cohort). Participants in the NOWAC postgenome cohort with a diagnosis of breast cancer have been identified, and breast cancer cases in Northern Norway diagnosed in 2004-2008 were included in this pilot study. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue was retrieved from the pathology labs, tissue cores were collected and RNA extracted. As normal controls, FFPE tissue from benign breast specimens (breast reductions) was included in the study. Microarray analyses of microRNA expression were perfomed by Exiqon using the 7th generation miRCURY LNA microRNA microarray system.od- to be deleted
