• Ongoing_mutagenesis_RNAseq

  One of the key questions to be explored is whether the biological processes generating specific mutational signatures continue to operate in the human cancer cell lines or simply reflect past mutagenic activity which is no longer operative. To address this question, we have extracted mutational signatures from 1,000 cancer cell lines of diverse cancer types. Several cell lines with mutational signatures of interest were selected, subcloned over a defined period of time and their genomes sequenced. The increased load of the mutations representative of a specific mutational signature within the genome of a subclone when compared to its parental clone was informative of the on-going mutational processes. To further study the recent observation that some of the clones belonging to a same cell line acquired differencet numbers of mutations over a set period of time, their RNA will be subjected to RNA-sequencing to study their differences.

• Molecular Characterization for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC)

  Total RNA was isolated from 50 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) specimens using the RecoverAll Total Nucleic Acid Isolation kit (Ambion). Tumor RNA libraries were prepared with 200ng RNA using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded Total RNA kit with Ribo-Zero Gold, and sequenced with >80 million 100 bp paired-end reads.

• Whole transcriptome profiling of liquid biopsies from tumour xenografted mouse models: validation cohort

  While cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in liquid biopsies is widely being used and investigated, free circulating RNA (extracellular RNA, exRNA) has the potential to improve therapy response monitoring and cancer detection due to its dynamic nature. A fundamental open question hampering the initiation of large-scale liquid biopsy collections for tumour exRNA analysis is that it remains unclear in which blood subcompartment tumour-derived exRNAs primarily reside. We set out to develop a host-xenograft deconvolution framework, exRNAxeno, with cDNA mapping strategies to either a combined human-mouse reference genome or both species genomes in parallel, that can be applied to exRNA sequencing data from liquid biopsies of human xenograft mouse models, enabling to distinguish (human) tumoural RNA from (murine) host RNA, and as such to specifically analyse tumour-derived exRNA. Subsequently, the preferred exRNAxeno combination pipeline was applied to total exRNA sequencing data from blood platelets and three plasma fractions from a breast cancer patient-derived and neuroblastoma cell line-derived xenograft mouse model. We show that tumoural exRNA concentrations are not determined by plasma platelet levels, while host exRNA concentrations increase with platelet content. Furthermore, a large variability in exRNA levels and gene content across individual mice is observed. In general, the tumoural gene detectability in plasma is correlated with the RNA expression levels in the tumour tissue or cancer cell line. Our results unravel new aspects of tumour-derived exRNA biology in xenograft mouse models.

• Human glioblastoma single cell RNA-seq from two patient, sampled at different positions within as well as outside tumor

  We performed deep single-cell RNA sequencing of two rare glioblastoma cases where tissue could be sampled from tumor core to macroscopically normal cortex. We processed two to three replicates per sample with the 10X Genomics V3.1 kits. Deep sequencing was performed to about 100,000 reads per cell on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform, resulting in a total of 37 BAM files.

• RNA-seq after drug perturbation of primary lymphoma samples

  3'-end low-depth RNA sequencing data from 108 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and 8 patients with lymphoma. Each primary patient sample was treated in vitro with DMSO as a control and with up to ten small-molecule inhibitors (ibrutinib, duvelisib, everolimus, trametinib, nutlin-3a, I-BET762, MK2206, selinexor, compound 26, and a combination of ibrutinib and compound 26). Sequencing was performed on the Illumina HiSeq4000. The dataset contains FASTQ files.

• Single-cell RNA sequencing of Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors (SI-NET)

  Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed on cells isolated from intestinal mucosa and small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) to compare their transcriptomic profiles. Tumor and adjacent normal tissues were collected from two SI-NET patients, enzymatically dissociated, and processed into single-cell suspensions. Single-cell libraries were generated using the Chromium Single Cell 3′ Reagent Kit v3 and sequenced on an Illumina platform to produce FASTQ files for downstream analysis.

• WGS,RNA data of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) refractory to immunomodulatory agents (IMiDs) and proteasome inhibitors (PIs)

  Paired WGS and RNA-Seq data of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) refractory to immunomodulatory agents (IMiDs) and proteasome inhibitors (PIs). We performed whole genome and transcriptome sequencing of 39 heavily pretreated RRMM patients with at least double refractoriness revealing complex structural changes and a high mutational load.

• RNA-Seq of GM adipose tissue samples

  This dataset contains 210 fastq files (RNA sequencing was performed in two centers) from 105 individuals (106 files in subcutaneous tissue and 104 files in visceral tissue). Of the 210 fastq files, 129 files are in PEx100 mode (appeared in a single fastq file) and 81 files are in PEx49bp mode (appeared in two separate fastq files). Sequencing was done on the Illumina HiSeq2000 platform.

• Gene Expression Signatures Characterized by Longitudinal Stability and Inter-Individual Variability Delineate Baseline Phenotypic Groups with Distinct Responses to Immune Stimulation

  RNA sequencing (RNAseq) of peripheral blood lymphocytes was used to develop a means to assess immune function in a way that can be used in discovery science and applied to patients individually in clinical settings. The premise is that profiles of RNA present in immune cells is reflective of the combined influence of genetic and environmental variation on immune potential of individuals and that this potential can be tapped to understand human immunity in a variety of biological contexts. CD4+ cells were isolated from fresh whole blood via positive magnetic bead selection and cell lysates were prepared using Qiazol (QIAGEN) and stored at -80ºC for 3 to 8 months. RNA was extracted in batches for cDNA library preparation and RNA-Seq. For this study, we developed standard operating procedures for handling human blood samples and determined: a) the best way to enrich for CD4+ T cells from whole blood and yield high quality RNA, b) the sensitivity of this RNA profiling strategy, and c) the reproducibility of generated immune profiles from healthy subjects. We then developed bioinformatics processes to establish immune response signatures and immune response phenotypes within cohorts of individuals.

• Identification and Characterization of Skin-Resident Memory T cells in Patients with Melanoma-Associated Vitiligo

  Metastatic melanoma patients who develop melanoma-associated vitiligo, an autoimmune cutaneous side effect after receiving immunotherapy, have better overall survival than those who do not develop vitiligo. The objective of this study is to determine the tumor-specific memory T cell responses in the skin, tumor and blood of melanoma patients with vitiligo. Matched melanoma tumor, distant vitiligo-affected skin, and blood were collected and sorted for T cells to perform paralleled single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-cell TCR sequencing (scTCR-seq) on the day of tissue collection. The transcriptional analysis identified three resident memory T (TRM) cell subsets which were shared between tumors and vitiligo-affected skin. scRNA-seq identified CD8+ T-cell clonotypes in tumors that co-existed as TRM in skin and as effector memory T (TEM) cells in blood. This study revealed that long-term melanoma survivors maintained memory T cell responses as broadly-distributed TRM and TEM compartments.
