• Expanding the utility of transcriptome analysis for mutation detection in high-risk childhood precision oncology

  In precision oncology, rapid and comprehensive mutation detection is essential for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. Whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) offers unique advantages by capturing functional consequences of genomic alterations and has the potential to detect not only oncogenic fusions, but also a broad spectrum of clinically relevant mutations traditionally identified from DNA-based approaches. We evaluated the utility of RNA-seq in a cohort of 477 high-risk paediatric tumours enrolled in the ZERO childhood cancer precision medicine programme with matched WGS data. A combination of reference-guided and reference-free RNA-seq algorithms were used to detect and interpret fusions and intragenic structural variants (SVs), resolving events from complex rearrangements and paralogous loci. RNA-seq detected 95% of gene fusions, including 33 missed by WGS. All intragenic SVs (100%) detected by WGS were also identified by RNA-seq and RNA-seq was essential for identification and/or interpretation of 30% of SVs. Additional functional insight such as aberrant splice-junctions and transcript abundance were critical for resolving pathogenicity. For single nucleotide variants and small insertions/deletions (SNVs/Indels), RNA-seq confirmed 92% and was essential for refining pathogenicity in 22% through allele-specific expression and splice assessment. These findings highlight RNA-seq as a critical complement to WGS, that transforms interpretation by adding functional context, thereby elevating diagnostic confidence and clinical decision-making.

• Identification of novel fusion genes in lung cancer using breakpoint assembly of transcriptome sequencing data

  Genomic translocation events frequently underlie cancer development through generation of gene fusions with oncogenic properties. Identification of such fusion transcripts by transcriptome sequencing might help to discover new potential therapeutic targets. We developed TRUP (Tumor-specimen suited RNA-seq Unified Pipeline (https://github.com/ruping/TRUP), a computational approach that combines split-read and read-pair analysis with de-novo assembly for the identification of chimeric transcripts in cancer specimens. We apply TRUP to RNA-seq data of different tumor types, and find it to be more sensitive than alternative tools in detecting chimeric transcripts, such as secondaryrearrangements in EML4-ALK-positive lung tumors, or recurrent inactivating rearrangements affecting RASSF8.

• Profiling RNA Translation in Pediatric Medulloblastoma

  This study provides RNA-sequencing and ribosome profiling data for patient-derived cell lines and patient tissue samples for children with medulloblastoma. Ribosome profiling is a variant protocol of RNA-sequencing that directly sequences ribosome-bound RNA fragments only. Associated RNA-seq and Ribo-seq data obtained separately for some cancer cell lines can be found on the NCBI SRA as PRJNA957428. Samples were processed for poly-A mRNA sequencing using the Roche Kapa Kit. Ribosome profiling was performed as described in the manuscript referenced below (Hofman et al.) and based on the article by McGlincy et al., Methods (2017). Ribo-seq data were analyzed for sample quality using RiboseQC (Calviello, Nat Struct Mol Biol, 2020). These data were used to quantify P-sites of open reading frames. RNAseq and ribo-seq data were integrated and compared to determine translational efficiency values using TPM (Ribo-seq) over TPM (RNA-seq) as the metric. Ribo-seq data on 14 samples and RNAseq data on 21 samples derived from 16 fresh-frozen surgical samples for medulloblastoma and 5 autopsy samples are available through dbGaP. A second cohort of 4 medulloblastoma samples (RNAseq, Ribo-seq) related to this study can be found on the EGA at EGAS00001007426.

• RNA-seq for "A preinvasive regulatory T cell axis for lung cancer interception" paper

  Bulk RNA sequencing data generated from primary resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumour tissue collected through the ASCENT study (Analysis of Screen-Detected Lung Cancers’ Genomic Traits; NCT04204499). The dataset comprises tumour RNA-seq from 89 patients with CT screen-detected NSCLC, predominantly early-stage disease, including lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma. The RNA-seq data were used to characterise tumour-immune transcriptional programmes and were analysed alongside matched peripheral blood immune profiling and clinical follow-up data.

• Assessing gene expression profiling from FFPE Patient Samples: A Comparison of Two Library Preparation Approaches and Recommendations

  Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) has transformed cancer research and clinical practice, with Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) driving advances in mutational profiling and personalized oncology. Yet, transcriptomic signatures remain essential for understanding disease mechanisms, including therapy resistance pathways. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), however, faces unique challenges when dealing with low-input or degraded RNA, as often found in archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues. Although previous studies have compared library preparation protocols, rapidly evolving technologies call for updated evaluations. Here, we present a direct comparison of two FFPE-compatible stranded RNA-seq library preparation kits: TaKaRa™ SMARTer® Stranded Total RNA-Seq Kit v2 (Kit A) and Illumina Stranded Total RNA Prep Ligation with Ribo-Zero Plus (Kit B). Both kits generated high-quality RNA-seq data, yet important differences emerged. Notably, Kit A achieved comparable gene expression quantification to Kit B while requiring 20-fold less RNA input, a crucial advantage for limited samples, albeit with increased sequencing depth. We critically discuss these results in relation to RNA availability, technical performance, cost-effectiveness, processing time, and automation potential, offering practical guidance for selecting optimal RNA-seq strategies in clinical and translational research settings

• ProstOmics: spatial and bulk multi-omics of prostate cancer

  In this ERC-funded ProstOmics project we have used spatial and bulk multi-omics on fresh frozen prostate cancer samples to investigate cancer biology and find for biomarkers to improve patient treatment. All tissue material were collected from prostate cancer patients undergoing radical prostatectomy who had not received any prior cancer-specific treatment.Of the 498 prostate tissue samples (114 patients) included in our project, 176 samples (N=37 patients) have been analyzed with bulk transcriptomics (RNA-seq). Some of these 176 samples were also analyzed with spatial transcriptomics (n=32, N=8, Visium 10x RNA-seq) and DNA methylomics (n=96, N=24, array). All datasets include metadata for histopathological evaluation. Patient metadata include information of age at surgery, time (months) until reported relapse, pre-surgery PSA and post-surgery T-stage.
