• Analysis_of_genomic_integrity_of_disease_corrected_human_induced_pluripotent_stem_cells_by_exome_sequencing

  Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells hold great promise for autologous cell transplantation. In order to apply this therapy to monogenic disorder, disease-causing mutations must be corrected prior to transplantation. We generated iPS cells from patients with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, which is caused by homozygous non-synonymous mutation in the SERPINA1 gene. In vitro differentiation of patient-derived iPS cells to hepatocytes showed recapitulation of the disease phenotype. We corrected the mutations by gene targeting using zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) and piggyBac transposon technologies. Our mutation correction is highly accurate. There is no exogenous sequence left behind at the targeted site. The corrected iPS cell-derived hepatocytes were indistinguishable from healthy hepatocyte, suggesting that the corrected gene was fully functional. The genomic integrity was also analyzed by CGH and SNP array, showing no genomic alterations. These are important points to ensure clinical safety as well as functional restoration of the corrected gene. One remaining question is if these corrected iPS cells are clinically safe at the single base-pair level. Recent publications suggested that cancer-related mutations are significantly accumulated during iPS cell propagation. We aim to assess the clinical safety of the corrected iPS cells by using exome sequencing. Outcome from this project would bring iPS cell technology one step closer to clinical applications.

• Kids First Pediatric Research Study in Familial Predisposition to Hematopoietic Malignancies (SJFAMILY-HM)

  The Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program (Kids First) is a trans-NIH effort initiated in response to the 2014 Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act and supported by the NIH Common Fund. This program focuses on gene discovery in pediatric cancers and structural birth defects and the development of the Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Data Resource (Kids First Data Resource). All of the WGS and phenotypic data from this study are accessible through dbGaP and kidsfirstdrc.org, where other Kids First datasets can also be accessed. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the commonest childhood tumor and a leading cause of cancer death in children, adolescents and young adults. Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma are also important hematologic malignancies (HM) that occur in children. Each are genetic diseases with growing evidence for a germline predisposition of both familial and sporadic cases, however the inherited genetic basis of ALL/lymphoma are poorly understood. Such knowledge is essential to gain mechanistic insight into the basis of tumor formation, and to guide genetic counseling and genetic management. Here we have assembled a large collection of familial HM kindreds, and extended recurrence cohorts of ALL and HL which will be used to identify the genetic basis of familial HM, examine the frequency of germline variants in sporadic ALL and HL, and to integrate inherited and somatic genomic data. These studies have high potential to provide fundamental new insights into the inherited genetic basis of HM, to provide important information to guide clinical management, and to provide an invaluable public resource of genomic data.

• Dynamics of tumor ecosystems and microbiome in response to neoadjuvant atezolizumab, bevacizumab, and FOLFOX treatment in patients with unresectable colorectal cancer with liver metastasis

  This study aims to explore the effects of neoadjuvant atezolizumab, bevacizumab, leucovorin, 5-fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin (ABFOLFOX) in patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM), focusing on the molecular dynamics of tumor ecosystems (TE) of CRLM and their impact on treatment outcomes. The study comprises two cohorts with CRLM tissue samples analyzed with RNA sequencing and immunohistochemical staining: cross-sectional cohort A (n = 60, CRLM treated with or without neoadjuvant chemotherapy) and prospective cohort B (n = 20 with serial sampling and treated with ABFOLFOX). Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was done for stool samples from cohort B.

• Loss of RREB1 in pancreatic beta cells reduces cellular insulin content and affects endocrine cell gene expression

  Genome-wide studies have uncovered multiple independent signals at the RREB1 locus associated with altered type 2 diabetes risk and related glycaemic traits. However, little is known about the function of the zinc finger transcription factor Ras-responsive element binding protein 1 (RREB1) in glucose homeostasis or how changes in its expression and/or function influence diabetes risk.

• Melanoma post mortem analysis

  Despite multiple large-scale sequencing studies offering substantial insight into the genomic landscape of cutaneous melanoma, the molecular events surrounding disease progression and the resulting molecular heterogeneity between metastases have not been fully elucidated. We have been applying whole genome and transcriptome sequencing across metastases collected during post mortem. Herein we show the findings for the first such patient. This is a targeted pulldown validation in support of the whole-genome sequencing analysis of the metastatic tumours and targeted pulldown of the primary tumour.

• Single cell RNA sequencing of human cord Blood CD34 Cells

  We performed single cell RNA sequencing and ATAC e valuation of human umbilical cord blood. To explore the differentiation pathway for human lymphoid lineage, our target cells contain CD34-positive cord blood. That population is evaluated by single cell RNA sequencing and single cell ATAC.
