• Multimodal Immune Profiling to Determine Mechanisms of COVID-19 Clinical Trajectory in Uganda

  We conducted a prospective cohort study of adults (RESERVE-U-C19) admitted to Entebbe Regional Referral Hospital (ERRH), a national COVID-19 referral center, across three viral variant-driven phases of the pandemic in Uganda. In this cohort, which reflects the entire spectrum of SARS-CoV-2 infection, we integrated clinical data with serum proteomics (N=306) and whole-blood transcriptomics (N=100) to determine a range of host responses associated with COVID-19 severity, SARS-CoV-2/HIV co-infection, and circulating viral variants. Beyond the prognostic importance of myeloid cell-driven immune activation and lymphopenia, we show that multifaceted impairment of host protein synthesis and extensive redox imbalance define core metabolic signatures of severe COVID-19, with central roles for IL-7, IL-15, and lymphotoxin-α in COVID-19 respiratory failure. While prognostic signatures were generally consistent in SARS-CoV-2/HIV-coinfection, type I interferon responses uniquely scaled with COVID-19 severity in persons living with HIV. Throughout the pandemic, COVID-19 severity peaked during phases dominated by A.23/A.23.1 and Delta B.1.617.2/AY variants, with Delta phase COVID-19 distinguished by exaggerated pro-inflammatory myeloid cell and inflammasome activation, NK and CD8+ T-cell depletion, impaired host protein synthesis, and upregulation of viral cell entry and trafficking pathways. Data from this study available through dbGaP include raw RNA-Seq data from whole-blood of adult participants (N=100).

• Genomic Profiling of Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma

  Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are malignant and highly aggressive hematologic tumors arising from mature post-thymic T cells. The diagnosis of PTCL includes diverse lymphoma subgroups, altogether accounting for about 15% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Despite recent advances in uncovering the mutational landscape of PTCLs, the prognoses of most PTCLs remain poor. To overcome the limits of exome sequencing and identify new genomic abnormalities in PTCL, we performed RNAseq and whole genome sequencing. From our analyses, we identified a recurrent in-frame deletion (VAV1 Δ778-786) generated by a focal deletion-driven alternative splicing mechanism as well as novel VAV1 gene fusions (VAV1-THAP4, VAV1-MYO1F, and VAV1-S100A7). These genetic lesions result in increased activation of VAV1 catalytic-dependent (MAPK, JNK) and non-catalytic-dependent (nuclear factor of activated T cells, NFAT) VAV1 effector pathways. These results support an oncogenic role for VAV1 signaling in the pathogenesis of PTCL (Abate et al., 2017). Recently, we have also identified a novel chimeric oncogene, FYN-TRAF3IP2, in the RNA-seq and whole genome sequencing analyses. FYN-TRAF3IP2 leads to aberrant NF-κβ activity downstream of T-cell receptor signaling and induces NF-κβ-driven T-cell transformation when expressed in hematopoietic progenitors in mice. This novel gene fusion supports the oncogenic driver role of NF-κβ signaling in the pathogenesis of PTCL (Kim et al., in review).

• Detection and Targeting of Splicing Deregulation in Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia Stem Cells

  This study evaluates the gene expression and splicing changes between pediatric patients with and without Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and pediatric and adult patients with AML. We obtained bone marrow or peripheral blood from patients and isolated CD34+ stem and/or progenitor cells from pediatric patients with AML (10) or without AML (6) and adult patients with AML (5). In parallel, a targeted analysis for known, deleterious, genetic mutations in the KRAS, NRAS, and KMT2C genes identified 2, 5, and 6 AML patients with alterations, respectively. Additionally, Tapestri analysis further identified a mutation in the intronic region of the SF3B1 gene in multiple pediatric AML patients. RNA-Seq was performed on the purified cell populations at The Scripps Research Institute Next Generation Core on an Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencer with 150bp paired-end reads.These datasets revealed that, similar to adult AML, pediatric AML samples were enriched for Leukemia Stem Cells (LSC) markers. A deeper analysis showed widespread dysregulation of splicing in pediatric AML samples compared to age-matched non-leukemic samples. In addition, the splicing regulator RBFOX2 was downregulated with an accompanying increase in specific CD47 splice isoforms in the pediatric AML samples. Thus, the increased presence of LSCs in pediatric AML is possibly driven by global splicing deregulation, and the treatment with splicing modulators like Rebecsinib has a potential therapeutic value for eradicating LSCs in these patients.

• Left Atrial Cardiomyocyte Transcriptomic Analysis of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation

  After IRB approval and informed consent, cardiomyocytes were isolated from human left atrial tissue samples obtained along the standard atriotomy incision during mitral valve surgery. RNA was isolated from cardiomyocytes and RNA libraries were prepared after rRNA depletion. RNA sequencing and whole transcriptome analysis were performed to identify differential gene expression associated with new onset postoperative atrial fibrillation.

• Oncogenic cooperation between the TCF7-SPI1 fusion and NRAS(G12D) requires β-catenin activity to drive T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

  In this study we investigate the role of TCF7-SPI1 fusions, more specifically in cooperation with RAS mutations. We make use of patients samples. This study contains paired-end RNA sequencing of the patients, Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing, single cell RNA sequencing and RNA sequencing of treatment with inhibitors of these samples.
