• Comprehensive pharmacogenomic characterization of gastric cancer

  Gastric cancer is among the most lethal human malignancies. Previous studies have identified molecular aberrations that constitute dynamic biological networks and genomic complexities of gastric tumors. However, the clinical translation of molecular-guided targeted therapy is hampered by challenges. Notably, solid tumors often harbor multiple genetic alterations, complicating the development of effective treatments. To address such challenges, we established a comprehensive dataset of molecularly annotated patient derivatives coupled with pharmacological profiles for 60 targeted agents to explore dynamic pharmacogenomic interactions in gastric cancers. We identified lineage-specific drug sensitivities based on histopathological and molecular subclassification, including substantial sensitivities toward VEGFR and EGFR inhibition therapies in diffuse- and signet ring-type gastric tumors, respectively. We identified potential therapeutic opportunities for WNT pathway inhibitors in ALK-mutant tumors, a significant association between PIK3CA-E542K mutation and AZD5363 response, and transcriptome expression of RNF11 as a potential predictor of response to gefitinib. Collectively, our results demonstrate the feasibility of drug screening combined with tumor molecular characterization to facilitate personalized therapeutic regimens for gastric tumors.

• DCIS fresh frozen fragmentomics dataset

  Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor lesion of breast cancer (BC). Often detected by mammography, most cases are managed through surgical and/or radiotherapy approaches. Today, it is not possible to predict which patients will progress to invasive disease. Here, we evaluated high-depth whole-genome sequenced (WGS) DCIS, enriched for highgrade clinical lesions, to understand whether deep WGS could reveal biological insights and/or personalized therapeutic vulnerabilities that may be targetable. We find genomic locations that are likely susceptible to producing the initiating lesion for structural variations (SVs) prone to subsequent evolution, termed SHOREs (Susceptibility HOtspots for Rearrangements and ongoing Evolution). We additionally highlight individualized therapeutic potential that would otherwise not be appreciable without WGS. We posit that holistic WGS profiling could offer a more precise stratification approach, discerning higher-risk cases for prospective clinical studies on personalized therapies, from truly low-risk cases suitable for active monitoring. To substantiate our WGS findings, we also performed RNAseq on the same samples, this EGA study contains the RNAseq data.

• snRNA-seq analysis in multinucleated myogenic FSHD cells identifies heterogeneous FSHD transcriptome signatures associated with embryonic-like program activation and oxidative stress-induced apoptosis

  The sporadic nature of DUX4 expression in FSHD muscle challenges comparative transcriptome analyses between FSHD and control samples. A variety of DUX4 and FSHD-associated transcriptional changes have been identified, but bulk RNA-seq strategies prohibit comprehensive analysis of their spatiotemporal relation, interdependence and role in the disease process. In this study, we used single-nucleus RNA-sequencing of nuclei isolated from patient- and control-derived multinucleated primary myotubes to investigate the cellular heterogeneity in FSHD. Taking advantage of the increased resolution in snRNA-sequencing of fully differentiated myotubes, two distinct populations of DUX4-affected nuclei could be defined by their transcriptional profiles. Our data provides insights into the differences between these two populations and suggests heterogeneity in two well-known FSHD-associated transcriptional aberrations: increased oxidative stress and inhibition of myogenic differentiation. Additionally, we provide evidence that DUX4-affected nuclei share transcriptome features with early embryonic cells beyond the well-described cleavage stage, progressing into the 8-cell and blastocyst stages. Altogether, our data suggests that the FSHD transcriptional profile is defined by a mixture of individual and sometimes mutually exclusive DUX4-induced responses and cellular state-dependent downstream effects.

• Host pathogen interaction long read transcriptome

  Our incomplete knowledge of the human transcriptome impairs the detection of disease-causing variants, in particular in transcripts only expressed under certain conditions. These transcripts are often lacking from reference transcript sets, such as Ensembl/GENCODE and RefSeq, and could be relevant for establishing genetic diagnoses. We present SUsPECT (Solving Unsolved Patient Exomes/gEnomes using Custom Transcriptomes), a pipeline based on the Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) to predict variant impact on custom transcript sets, such as those generated by long-read RNA-sequencing, for downstream prioritization. Our pipeline predicts the functional consequence and likely deleteriousness scores for missense variants in the context of novel open reading frames predicted from any transcriptome. We demonstrate the utility of SUsPECT by uncovering potential mutational mechanisms of pathogenic variants in ClinVar that are predicted to be benign using the reference transcript annotation. In further support of SUsPECT’s utility, we identified an enrichment of immune-related variants predicted to have a more severe molecular consequence when annotating with a newly generated transcriptome from stimulated immune cells instead of the reference transcriptome. Our pipeline outputs crucial information for further prioritization of potentially disease-causing variants for any disease and will become increasingly useful as more long-read RNA sequencing datasets become available.

• Derivation and Investigation of The First Human Cell-Based Model of Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome

  Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) is the most common human imprinting disorder, and phenotypes include hepatomegaly and hepatoblastoma development. In approximately 20% of patients, this syndrome is caused by uniparental isodisomy of the paternal allele across chromosome 11p15 (pUPD11). From fibroblasts cultured from 2 BWS patients with pUPD11, we derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) and differentiated to hepatocytes to study a model of the BWS liver transcriptome through RNA-Seq. Compared to 2 similarly derived controls, we observed differential expression in insulin signaling, cell proliferation, and cell cycle pathways, indicating their potential importance in the liver overgrowth and oncogenesis associated with BWS.

• Single-cell characterization of human GBM reveals regional differences in tumor-infiltrating leukocyte activation

  Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) harbors a highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) which influences glioma growth. Major efforts have been undertaken to describe the TME on a single-cell level. However, human data on regional differences within the TME remain scarce. Goals: we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) on paired biopsies from the tumor center, peripheral infiltration zone and blood of five patients with primary GBM Details: This EGA study includes raw data sequencing files for the scRNA-seq samples. The processed data (output from Alevin, UMI count matrix and cell metadata) are available from GEO https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE197543

• Human Epilepsy Genetics: Mosaic Mutations in Focal Epilepsy

  This study investigates the role of somatic mosaic mutations in human focal epilepsies, including focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) and mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE). It leverages genomic and single-cell transcriptomic data from surgically resected brain tissue to identify pathogenic variants and characterize their effects on specific cell types and molecular pathways. The study employs methods such as deep whole-exome and targeted sequencing, single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq), and integrated genotype-transcriptome profiling (e.g., GO-TEN) to define the cellular architecture and functional consequences of mosaic mutations. Data generated under this project aim to elucidate mechanisms of epileptogenesis and support discovery of potential therapeutic targets.

• Feasibility Study to Identify the Optimal Adjuvant Combination Scheme of Ipilimumab and Nivolumab (OpACIN) in resectable stage III melanoma patients

  OpACIN is a feasibility study including 20 patients with palpable stage III melanoma that were 1:1 randomized to receive ipilimumab 3mg/kg and nivolumab 1mg/kg, either 4 courses after surgery (adjuvant arm), or 2 courses prior to surgery and 2 courses post-surgery (neoadjuvant arm). WES and RNA-seq was performed on baseline biopsy material and correlated with outcome of the patients (relapse free survival). TCRseq from baseline tumor samples was used to analyse the top 100 tumor resident clones and analyse their change in PBMC comparing baseline versus week 6 of immunotherapy.
