• Assessment of Complex Chromosomal Changes in De-Identified Cell Lines

  In this study, we obtained DNA from the Coriell Repository from individuals with complex chromosomal changes. The database ("Chromosome Abnormalities") of these de-identified samples contains 1,366 individuals as per https://www.coriell.org/1/NIGMS. We started with 16 individuals in this pilot study that we will hopefully expand out in a potential large NIH grant using information derived in this pilot study. De-identified samples were sequenced using internal funding from Washington University in St. Louis. A description of the sequencing we did on these individuals is provided in our medRxiv preprint at https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.03.28.25324850v1.

• Development of Novel Synovial Sarcoma Organoids Models for Drug Discovery

  Although synovial sarcoma has been studied using established cell lines and mouse models, effective treatments remain limited. We treated five patients with synovial sarcoma between 2022 and 2023 and established organoid cultures from resected tumor specimens using a modified air-liquid interface method. After serial passaging, organoids were successfully xenografted into NOD-scid IL2Rgnull (NSG) mice in three cases. The established organoids retained SS18-SSX fusion transcripts and demonstrated histological and genetic similarities to the original tumors. These organoid models provide a reliable platform for studying synovial sarcoma biology and hold promise for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

• Genetic_background_for_cardio_vascular_disorders_in_the_general_Finnish_population

  Low coverage (4-6x) sequencing on samples from population cohorts (Finrisk, Health2000) will be done at Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (WTSI) using Illumina HiSeq sequencing technology. We will produce 100bp paired end reads. Variants will be called using the 1000 Genomes Project pipeline. The samples have been selected from a national representative set of approximately 30,300 samples and comprises 500 individuals of each gender in the extreme tail of high density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations. Included individuals were between 25 and 65 years of age. Individuals with a diagnosis of diabetes or BMI>30 were excluded from the study.

• 463 newly diagnosed patients with Multiple Myeloma underwent whole exome sequencing of tumour and peripheral blood DNA.

  463 newly diagnosed patients from the UK Myeloma XI clinical trial (NCT01554852) underwent whole exome sequencing plus targeted capture of the IGH/K/L and MYC loci. 200 ng of DNA were processed using NEBNext DNA library prepartion kit and hybridised to the SureSelect Human All Exon V5 Plus. Four samples were pooled and run on one lane of a HiSeq 2000 using 76-bp paired end reads. DNA from CD138+ selected bone marrow cells (myeloma tumour) as well as peripheral white blood cells were analysed and somatic mutations detected.

• Chracterising_cellur_pathways_underlying_CD3_CD28_activation_of_human_CD4__cells

  We devised an approach to disentangle the TCR and CD28 pathways upon stimulation in naive and memory primary human CD4+ T cells (Tcons) in response to defined stimulatory signals. Isolated memory and naïve T cells were activated using anti-CD3, anti-CD28 or both in combination. As a control we cultured cells in the same conditions but without the stimuli. We carried Chipmentation using the H3K27ac antibody on 200,000 cross-linked cells. 1) This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Alternative lengthening of telomeres in childhood neuroblastoma from genome to proteome

  Telomere maintenance by telomerase activation or alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) is a major determinant of poor outcome in neuroblastoma. Here, we screen for ALT in primary and relapsed neuroblastomas and characterize its features using multi-omics profiling. We aim to deepen the knowledge about the biology and clinical features of ALT-positive neuroblastomas by enriching ALT tumors in the study cohort independent of ATRX mutation status. Using a combination of genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic profiling, we provide evidence that this subgroup is clinically and molecularly distinct.

• Gut microbiome dynamics unravelled with metagenomics sequencing

  It has been already several years since we discovered that microbial therapeutics like Faecal Microbiota Transplantation can be used to treat Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) and Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with great success. The concept has challenged us to test the limits of our knowledge with the perspective to improve health in the most diverse conditions like Parkinson disease, depression, autism and obesity, just to mention a few. Note: the figure belongs to the original paper and is owned by the authors. Allyson L.Bird and colleagues from Genentech Inc. (San Francisco) recently published an interesting study building up on the key concept that “As microbial therapeutics are increasingly being tested in diverse patient populations, it is essential to understand the host and environmental factors influencing the microbiome.” The authors of this work analysed 1359 gut microbiome samples using shotgun metagenomics sequencing.  The results of the comparison done between microbiota composition across the different groups showed that biological sex is the strongest driver of diversity, while aging (age range studied: 20–69) appears to be the second factor. As smartly outlined in the authors’ own graphical abstract (figure to the left), Bacteroidota species consistently increased with donors' age while Actinobacteriota species, including Bifidobacterium, decreased. This study also integrated data from oncological patients to draw cancer-related evidences. After correcting the biases for technical and geographic differences, they found that cancer patients show significantly altered gut bacterial communities compared with their healthy counterparts. Eg. E.coli was found to be increased in cancer patients together with Bacteroidota/Firmicutes ratios. By comparing sequential samples taken from the same donors (413) within short-distance time points, the authors found that in the short term, intra-individual differences were less than the inter-individual ones, indicating a certain community stability being the norm. One of the pivotal points from this interesting study is that the data proceeds from extremely well-defined and selected donors. Specifically, the data for 949 selected healthy donors came from the Milieu Intérieur (MI) Consortium and extensive metadata, including demographic variables, serological measures, dietary information, and systemic immune profiles, are available. This precise stratification allowed for the robust detection of smaller changes, compared to former works. All sequencing data has been deposited in the EGA archive under the accession number EGAS00001004437. Enjoy this amazing open access paper published in the Experimental Journal of Medicine on January 2021.
