• Role of Tobacco Smoke in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

  Background. Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common histologically defined renal cancer. However, it is not a uniform disease and includes several genetic subtypes with different prognoses. ccRCC is also characterized by distinguished metabolic reprogramming. Tobacco smoking (TS) is an established risk factor for ccRCC with unknown effects on tumor pathobiology.Methods. We investigated the landscape of ccRCCs and paired normal kidney tissues (NKTs) using integrated transcriptomic, metabolomic and metallomic approaches in a cohort of never smokers (NS) and long-term current smokers (LTS) Caucasian males. Results. All three Omics domains consistently identified a distinct metabolic subtype of ccRCCs in LTS, characterized by activation of oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) coupled with reprogramming of the malate-aspartate shuttle and metabolism of aspartate, glutamate, glutamine and histidine. Cadmium, copper and inorganic arsenic accumulated in LTS tumors showing redistribution among intracellular pools, including relocation of copper into the cytochrome c oxidase complex. Gene expression signature based on the LTS metabolic subtype provided prognostic stratification of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) ccRCC tumors that was independent from genomic alterations.Conclusions. The work identified the TS related metabolic subtype of ccRCC with vulnerabilities that can be exploited for precision medicine approaches targeting metabolic pathways. The results provided rationale for the development of metabolic biomarkers with diagnostic and prognostic applications using evaluation of OxPhos status. The metallomic analysis revealed the role of disrupted metal homeostasis in ccRCC highlighting the importance of studying effects of metals from e-cigarettes and environmental exposures.

• Genetics of Mammographic Density in Ashkenazi Jews

  Mammographic density (MD) is a strong risk factor for breast cancer and is also a highly heritable trait with ~60-70% of the variance due to genetic factors, based on twin studies. MD is also higher in families with a strong history of breast cancer. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS), which focus on common genetic variants, have identified several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with MD. However, these SNPs explain a very small fraction of the variance of MD, suggesting many other genes are involved. Thus, the vast majority of the heritability of mammographic density remains unexplained and may be explained, at least in part, by rare variants. Ashkenazi Jewish women are a founder population; founder populations frequently have alleles affecting phenotypes which may be unique and/or extremely rare in other populations. Prior reports have identified an association between higher mammographic density and Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. Therefore, we developed a study of mammographic density in AJ women. We combined datasets from several different cohorts including (a) the California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute (b) the Athena Breast Health Cohort and (c) the Marin Women's study. In each study, we identified women who reported AJ ancestry (determined by self-report or by genetic analysis). We identified mammograms by linking the women to the San Francisco Mammography Registry. We retrieved digital mammographic results and used software to infer volumetric density and percent volumetric density for each woman. We then performed genome-wide genotyping of the samples using the Illumina MEGA array.

• Intra-tumor heterogeneity and clonal evolution of papillary renal cell carcinoma

  Limited knowledge of intratumor heterogeneity (ITH), and clonal evolution of papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) and rare kidney tumor subtypes hinders understanding of tumorigenesis and therapeutic efficacy. We conducted an integrative genomic and epigenomic ITH analysis and studied clonal evolutionary history of pRCC and rare kidney tumor subtypes. We dissected multiple consecutive samples from the center of the tumor towards the tumor's periphery, a normal sample ~5 cm distant from the tumor, and, where feasible, metastatic regions in the adrenal gland. Specifically, we performed 60X multi-region whole-genome sequencing (mWGS), both genome-wide methylation and SNP array profiling, and deep targeted sequencing (average 500X coverage) of 254 cancer driver genes (PMID:24390350). The study population comprises 39 patients with kidney cancers, including 23 with papillary type 1 (pRCC1), 12 with papillary type 2 (pRCC2), one of which also had areas of clear cell, and one each with collecting duct tumor (cdRCC), renal fibrosarcoma rSRC, mixed pRCC1/pRCC2, and an unclassified renal cancer with mixed features of pRCC2 and cdRCC. Based on DNA sample availability, we conducted whole genome sequencing (WGS) on 124 samples from 29 subjects, deep targeted sequencing on 139 samples from 38 subjects, SNP array genotyping on 101 samples from 38 subjects, and genome-wide methylation profiling on 139 samples from 28 subjects. All assays were performed on tumor, metastasis and normal tissue samples, with the exception of the SNP array genotyping, which was conducted only on tumor samples.

• Mayo Clinic - Fecal Microbiota and Adenomas

  Background: Adenomatous polyps are the most common precursor to colorectal cancer (CRC), the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. We sought to learn more about early events of carcinogenesis by investigating shifts in the gut microbiota of patients with adenomas. Methods: We analyzed 16S rRNA gene sequences from the fecal microbiota of patients with adenomas (n=233) and without (n=547). Results: Multiple taxa were significantly more abundant in patients with adenomas, including Bilophila, Desulfovibrio, pro-inflammatory bacteria in the genus Mogibacterium, and multiple Bacteroidetes species. Patients without adenomas had greater abundances of Veillonella, Firmicutes (Order Clostridia), and Actinobacteria (family Bifidobacteriales). Many of our findings were consistent with previously reported shifts in the gut microbiota of CRC patients. Importantly, the altered adenoma profile is predicted to increase primary and secondary bile acid production, as well as starch, sucrose, lipid, and phenylpropanoid metabolism. Conclusions: These data suggest that diets rich in refined sugar, protein, and lipids may lead to increased bile acid production, creating a colonic environment that promotes the growth of bile-tolerant microbes such as Bilophilia and Desulfovibrio. In turn, these microbes may produce genotoxic or inflammatory metabolites such as H2S and secondary bile acids, catalyzing adenoma development and eventually CRC. Impact: This study suggests a plausible biological mechanism to explain the links between diet, shifts in the microbiota, and CRC. This represents a first step toward resolving the complex interactions that shape the adenoma-carcinoma sequence of CRC and may facilitate personalized therapeutics focused on the microbiota.

• Circulating Tumor DNA Analysis in ERBB2-Amplified Colorectal Cancer: Biomarker Analysis of the MyPathway Trial

  Combination of two HER2-directed antibodies, pertuzumab and trastuzumab (P+T), has antitumor activity in HER2-positive colorectal cancer (CRC). Although liquid biopsies are increasingly being used in clinical oncology, the association between tumor and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) ERBB2 status and ctDNA monitoring for early response and resistance are unknown. Eighty-five patients with ERBB2-amplified and/or overexpressed CRC were treated with P+T in the MyPathway trial; 42 had ctDNA testing at Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1), and 38 had longitudinal plasma tested for ctDNA. We analyzed the ctDNA vs tissue ERBB2 concordance, genomic co-alterations, and ctDNA dynamics and association with response. Forty-one (98%) of 42 patients had genomic alterations detected in ctDNA at C1D1, and 29 (69%) had ERBB2 amplification in ctDNA. There was a strong correlation between ERBB2 copy number on next-generation sequencing in tissue and C1D1 ERBB2 ctDNA copy number. Thirty-seven percent achieved a molecular response by C3D1 on P+T, which was associated with prolonged progression-free survival and overall survival (OS). CDKN2A and KRAS mutations were associated with shorter OS, and a trend was seen with PIK3CA mutations. Several emerging co-alterations were identified in ctDNA at progression, including in the MAPK and PI3K pathways and other tyrosine receptor kinases. ctDNA can detect ERBB2 amplification in many, but not all, patients with ERBB2 amplification detected in tumor samples. ctDNA molecular response was associated with better survival, and ctDNA co-alterations may offer insights into mechanisms of intrinsic and acquired resistance.

• Mutational signatures in normal tissues of patients treated with clinical stage G-quadruplex binder CX5461

  Drug induced photoreactions following exposure to UVA have been documented for several therapeutic compound classes, including psoralens and fluoroquinolones. CX5461, a quinolone-derived small molecule currently in phase 1 studies for cancer treatment, has been shown to be a clinically significant UV photosensitizer. Here we examined the mutagenic spectrum of CX5461 in normal tissues of patients undergoing treatment, by comparing deep whole genome sequencing (WGS) from skin biopsies taken from non-sun exposed areas pre and post drug exposure of patients in the Canadian Cancer Clinical Trials Group (CCTG) IND.231 trial (NCT02719977). We show that a low burden of SNVs (<100) and indels (<40) mutations was detected in post CX5461 skin biopsies, with a pattern resembling background or sequencing artefact signatures. To further characterize the mutational pattern of CX5461 photoreactivity, we compared mutational profiles of human retinal pigment epithelial cells exposed to UVA, CX5461, or a combination of both UV and CX5461. Treatment with CX5461 or UVA alone, resulted in a low SNV burden. In contrast, human cells exposed to UVA and CX5461 had a two to four orders higher mutational burden, with a distinct mutational pattern characterized by T>A, T>C mutations, dissimilar to that of UV alone or CX5461 alone. Our results suggest that human exposure to CX5461 alone is not associated with high levels of single base mutagenesis. However, CX5461 is a very potent UV photosensitizer, underscoring the need for adequate UV screening and controls when studying the effects of photosensitizing small molecules on single base DNA variation.

• The genomic landscape of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer and arises from B- or T-lineage lymphocyte precursors. ALL comprises dozens of subtypes, and genomic analyses have largely been performed within these subtypes. Here we analyze pediatric ALL genomes across all subtypes, including 768 whole genomes, 1,729 exomes, and 1,889 transcriptomes in 2,754 patients. Most ALL subtypes harbor 4 or more driver alterations per sample, similar to adult cancers, despite low mutation burdens. Hyperdiploid B-ALL copy gains are likely acquired early and synchronously, with copy gains occurring before ultraviolet-induced mutations. By contrast, ultraviolet-induced mutations precede copy gains in iAMP21 B-ALL. Overall, we identified 378 putative ALL driver genes. Most driver alterations vary in prevalence across ALL subtypes, with B-ALL enriched for Ras and B-lineage-related alterations, and T-ALL enriched for PI3K, JAK, and cell cycle alterations. Most B-ALL (54.3%) and T-ALL (51.2%) samples bear at least one rare driver gene alteration (present in less than 2% of samples), including 30 putative novel cancer driver genes associated with ubiquitination, SUMOylation, non-coding, and other functions. Known or novel alterations associated with poor outcomes in specific subtypes include TBL1XR1 alterations in ETV6-RUNX1 patients, CREBBP in Ph-like-CRLF2, SETD2 in hyperdiploid, and PTEN in TAL1 patients. Intriguingly, DUX4 and KMT2A subtypes separate into CEBPA/FLT3- or NFATC4-expressing subgroups with potential clinical implications. Together, these results deepen understanding of ALL etiology and outcomes, and facilitate ALL model development.

• Mutation-specific non-canonical pathway of PTEN as a distinct therapeutic target for glioblastoma

  PTEN is one of most frequently altered tumor suppressor genes in malignant tumors. The dominant negative effect of PTEN alteration suggests that aberrant function of PTEN mutation might be more disastrous than deletion, the most frequent genomic event in glioblastoma (GBM). This study aimed to understand the functional properties of various PTEN missense mutations and to investigate their clinical relevance. The genomic landscape of PTEN alteration was analyzed using the Samsung Medical Center GBM cohort and validated via The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset. Several hot-spot mutations were identified, and their subcellular distributions and phenotypes were evaluated. We established a library of cancer cell lines that over-express these mutant proteins using the U87MG and patient-derived cell models lacking functional PTEN. PTEN mutations were categorized into two major subsets: missense mutations in the phosphatase domain and truncal mutations in the C2 domain. We determined the subcellular compartmentalization of four mutant proteins (H93Y, C124S, R130Q, and R173C) from the former group and found that they had distinct localizations; those associated with invasive phenotypes (‘edge mutations’) localized to the cell periphery, while the R173C mutant localized to the nucleus. Invasive phenotypes derived from edge substitutions were unaffected by an anti-PI3K/Akt agent but were disrupted by microtubule inhibitors. PTEN mutations exhibit distinct functional properties with regard to their subcellular localization. Further, some missense mutations (‘edge mutations’) in the phosphatase domain caused enhanced invasiveness associated with dysfunctional cytoskeletal assembly, thus suggesting it to be a potent therapeutic target.

• Analysis of the Elements Involved in the Enrichment of a Panel of Genomic Regions by Nanopore Sequencing Using Adaptive Sampling

  DNA sequencing using nanopore technologies with the affordable MinION device is useful for the identification and characterization of structural variants, long haplotypes, sequencing of repetitive regions and identification of epigenetic modifications. The main limitation of this approach is the low coverage obtained, which might be avoided by adaptive sampling, a computationally controlled method of enrichment for targeted genomic regions. This study dissects the factors involved in the enrichment by adaptive sampling of a panel of 18 human genome regions containing 20 genes implicated in breast cancer sequenced in 16 patients with familial breast cancer negative for NGS screening. An average coverage of 2.0x was obtained for the whole genome and 5.1x for selected regions. Sequencing time was the main factor improving coverage. The selection of long reads (&amp;gt;1 Kb) did not improve the enrichment. The length of the selected region, which in our study ranged from 126 to 565 Kb, did not play a significant role in enrichment. However, the region containing PMS2 showed significantly lower coverage, which could be explained by the high number of PMS2 pseudogenes (N = 14), which were also enriched. Our study shows new evidence of enrichment obtained by adaptive sampling in a panel of genomic regions and shows parameters, the relevance of sequencing time and the role of pseudogenes, that improve the enrichment yield with no library reloading or GPU use, data useful for a more efficient application of this procedure in future studies.

• Multivalent State Transitions Shape the Intratumoral Composition of Small Cell Lung Carcinoma

  Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is an aggressive, tobacco-associated tumor characterized by rapid growth, early metastases, and initial response followed by almost invariable resistance to chemotherapy. Studies to date have not resolved the extent that diverse transcriptional programs drive SCLC and contribute to its lethality. We combined patient-derived xenograft (PDX) (n = 64) resources with multi-omic profiling, single-cell fluorescence tracking of ex vivo tumor cells, and mathematical and statistical models to study the topology of the SCLC transcriptional state space and its plasticity.

• Whole-genome methylation profiling of menstrual stem cells identifies novel biomarkers for endometriosis

  Endometriosis, despite its high prevalence, is underdiagnosed and poorly managed due to lack of clinically validated biomarkers and pathophysiological insight. Menstrual bloodderived stem cells (MenSCs) have been implicated in disease pathogenesis, but their diagnostic potential remains unexplored. We conducted a clinical study (n=42; 19 endometriosis, 23 controls) to assess whether DNA methylation profiles of freshly isolated MenSCs can identify disease-specific biomarkers. Whole-genome methylation sequencing revealed differentially methylated regions (DMRs) enriched in genes linked to hallmarks of endometriosis (e.g., inflammation, tissue remodelling, development). These DMRs robustly distinguished cases from controls, independent of technical and clinical variables. Machine learning models trained and validated on these DMRs achieved high diagnostic performance (specificity 83%, sensitivity 79%). Integration with an independent single-cell RNA sequencing dataset showed that the DMRs may modulate gene expression, further supporting their biological relevance. These findings position MenSC DNA methylation profiling as a promising, non-invasive approach for early endometriosis diagnosis and personalised care.

• 10x dataset of an obese human subject

  Biopsies from visceral adipose tissue from the omental depot (OAT) were obtained from an obese individual with participant informed consent obtained after the nature and possible consequences of the studies were explained under protocols approved by the Institutional Review Boards of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, or the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center. The obese donor underwent bariatric surgery, the lean donor underwent cholecystectomy. OAT samples were placed in 1 mL of DMEM, and finely minced under sterile conditions before digestion in 50 mL of DMEM with 3 mg/1 mL collagenase IV (Gibco). Samples were incubated at 37°C in a rotating oven for 20-60 min. Adipocyte and stromal vascular fractions (SVF) were separated by centrifugation, and red blood cells (RBCs) were removed from the SVF by histopaque gradient (Sigma). Single-cell RNA-sequencing libraries were prepared using the Chromium platform (10x genomics), and sequenced on the MiSeq 500 or HiSeq 2500 Sequencing System (Illumina).

• Circular RNA characterization in functionally distinct brain regions

  Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a class of endogenous, non-coding RNAs that are formed when exons back splice to each other and that are both highly conserved and pervasively expressed in the mammalian brain. The goal of this study was thus to systematically identify and characterize circRNA expression and as well as to evaluate the predicted impact on regulatory networks in five functionally distinct cortical regions of healthy aged human brain - cerebellum (BC), inferior parietal lobe (IPL), middle temporal gyrus (MTG), occipital cortex (OC) and superior frontal gyrus (SGF).
