• Characterization of mutational signatures in human cancer cell lines reveals episodic APOBEC mutagenesis

  Multiple signatures of somatic mutations have been identified in human cancer genomes. To investigate whether mutational signatures continue to be generated, and if so their temporal patterns of activity, subsets of cell lines were cultured in vitro for extended periods and subjected to single cell cloning and whole genome or exome sequencing or directly to single cell whole genome sequencing. As expected, signatures of past exogenous exposures, such as tobacco smoke and ultraviolet light, were not generated in vitro. In contrast, signatures of normal and defective DNA repair and replication continued to be generated at essentially constant mutation rates. Signatures of APOBEC cytidine deaminase DNA-editing activity exhibited a distinctive pattern with substantial fluctuations in mutation rate over time and episodic bursts of mutations. The initiating factors for these bursts are unclear although retrotransposon mobilisation may play a role. This cell line set now constitutes a comprehensive resource of live experimental models of mutational processes of both known and unknown aetiologies potentially retaining the patterns of activity and regulatory influences operative in human cells in vivo.

• Ovarian Cancer Organoid Biobank - RNASeq data

  Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous disease usually diagnosed at a late stage. Experimental in vitro models that faithfully capture the hallmarks and tumor heterogeneity of OC are limited and hard to establish. We present a novel protocol that enables efficient derivation and long-term expansion of OC organoids. Utilizing this protocol, we have established 56 organoid lines from 32 patients, representing the spectrum of ovarian neoplasms, including non-malignant borderline tumors, as well as mucinous, clear-cell, endometrioid, low- and high-grade serous carcinomas. OC organoids recapitulate histological and genomic features of the pertinent lesion from which they were derived, illustrating intra- and inter-patient heterogeneity, and can be genetically modified. We show that OC organoids can be used for drug screening assays and capture different tumor subtype responses to the gold standard platinum-based chemotherapy, including acquisition of chemoresistance in recurrent disease. Finally, OC organoids can be xenografted, enabling in vivo drug sensitivity assays. Taken together, this demonstrates their potential application for research and personalized medicine.

• Personalized Onco-Genomic Project for pediatric and adolescent patients in British Columbia

  This is an extension of the BC Cancer Agency's Personalized Onco-Genomics (POG) project to children and adolescents treated at BC Children's Hospital. The project provides access to whole genome and transcriptome sequencing, and integrated bioinformatics analyses, of relapsed, refractory or poor prognosis cancers with an aim to identify actionable variants that can inform clinical decision making.

• The long term effects of chemotherapy on normal blood - Nanoseq dataset

  In developed countries, ~10% of individuals are exposed to systemic chemotherapy for cancer and other diseases. Many chemotherapeutic agents act by increasing DNA damage in cancer cells, hence triggering cell death. However, there is limited understanding of the extent and consequences of collateral DNA damage to normal tissues. To investigate the impact of chemotherapy on mutation burdens and cell population structure of a normal tissue we sequenced blood cell genomes from 23 individuals, aged 3-80 years, treated with a range of chemotherapy regimens. Substantial additional mutation loads with characteristic mutational signatures were imposed by some chemotherapeutic agents, but there were differences in burden between different classes of agent, different agents of the same class and different blood cell types. Chemotherapy also induced premature changes in the cell population structure of normal blood, similar to those of normal ageing. The results constitute an initial survey of the long-term biological consequences of cytotoxic agents to which a substantial fraction of the population is exposed during the course of their disease management, raising mechanistic questions and highlighting opportunities for mitigation of adverse effects.

• CEBP-Beta/IL-1-Beta/ TNF-alpha Feedback Loop Drives Drug Resistance to BCL2 and MDM2 Inhibitors in Monocytic Leukemia Cells

  To uncover the mechanisms of MDM2 inhibitor resistance that are mediated by IL-1, we performed RNAseq on three primary AML patient cells treated with idasanutlin in the presence or absence of IL-1β. These three leukemia samples were chosen because they exhibit high blast counts and are protected by IL-1β when treated with idasanutlin, as determined by apoptosis assay. We observed that a majority of the major p53 pathway targets remained upregulated in the presence of IL-1β. We next performed differential expressed gene (DEG) analysis following IL-1β treatment with and without idasanutlin. IL-1β treatment upregulated 3295, 1353, and 680 genes with ≥1 Log2FC, in each of the three patient samples, and a significant majority of these genes (82%, 62.4%, and 47.6%) remained upregulated in the presence of idasanutlin. Pathway analysis showed that IL-1β upregulated genes were associated with NF-κB, Interleukin-1 family signaling pathways, immune and inflammatory associated genes and myeloid maturation markers. To identify downstream targets that contribute to the protective effect of IL-1β during idasanutlin treatment, we performed DEG analysis on IL-1β + idasanutlin treatment compared to idasanutlin treatment alone. Interestingly, IL-1β induces its own expression and other pro-survival cytokines including TNF, CSF2 (GMCSF), IL-6, CSF3 (GCSF), as well as their respective receptors and/or coactivators, including IL1RL1 and multiple TNF receptors. We verified that IL-1β and TNF-α induce the upregulation of their own membrane-bound forms, their corresponding receptors, CSF2RB, and monocytic markers, as determined by flow cytometry immunophenotyping. Furthermore, IL-1β upregulated a number of pro-inflammatory chemokines, including CXCL13, CXCL2, etc. These findings highlight a pleiotropic role of IL-1β. The RNA expression of these three samples in the presence and absence of IL-1β and idasanutlin treatment will be deposited in dbGaP.
