• PGRN/PAT: The genomic basis for susceptibility to drug-induced long QT syndrome (diLQTS)

  The goal of this study was to search for genetic variants that could be responsible for modifying the risk of drug-induced long QT syndrome (diLQTS). diLQTS is a relatively common adverse drug event and has been a leading cause for drug relabeling and withdrawal from the market. Our hypothesis, that variants in genes which regulate electrical properties in the heart modify the risk of diLQTS, was tested by sequencing approximately 225 patients of European descent using next-generation targeted captured or whole exome sequencing. Data from cases and controls (1:2) were analyzed to identify both rare and common genetic variation.

• Genetic Basis of Cryptorchidism

  Non-syndromic cryptorchidism is a common malformation, but the genetic loci that increase susceptibility to cryptorchidism remain unknown. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was completed to determine whether common allelic variants are associated with susceptibility to cryptorchidism. Two sets of discovery groups were genotyped. Group 1 (559 cases and 1772 controls) was genotyped with HumanHap550v1.0, HumanHap550v3.0 or Human610-quad v1.0. Group 2 (353 cases and 1149 controls) was genotyped with HumanOmniExpress-12v1 or HumanOmniExpress-12v1-1. The sample and marker QCs were performed separately using PLINK (v1.07; http://pngu.mgh.harvard.edu/purcell/plink/) and logistic regression analyses were performed with first and second multidimensional scaling (MDS) components as covariates.

• GWAS in Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease

  This study was a case-control genome-wide association study of 1616 non-Hispanic white cases and 4683 controls. Under an additive model for the minor allele at each SNP, we identified 19 SNPs, representing 7 chromosomal locations (5p15, 6p24, 7q22, 11p15, 15q14-15, 17q21, and 19p13), with genome-wide significant (P < 5x10-8) associations using the discovery samples included in this submission. We genotyped the 19 genome-wide significant SNPs in addition to 178 SNPs with 5x10-8 < P-value <.0001 and found 4 additional loci (3q26, 4q22, 10q24, and13q34) with genome-wide significant SNPs in the meta-analysis.

• A Phase I/IB Study of Ipilimumab or Nivolumab in Patients With Relapsed Hematologic Malignancies After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

  Relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is characterized by poor outcomes and novel therapeutic options are urgently needed. Immune checkpoint blockade using CTLA-4 and PD-1 blocking antibodies are a potential concept for reinstating a dormant graft-versus-leukemia (GvL) effect.This study investigated transcriptomic changes in biopsies obtained from patients who received immune checkpoint blockade for relapsed hematologic malignancy post-HSCT and elucidated transcriptional programs associated with successful reinvigoration of GvL. Differential gene expression analysis showed evidence of increased T cell infiltration in biopsies of responders to ipilimumab treatment and demonstrated shared gene programs between GvL and GvHD.

• The landscape of Usher syndrome-associated transcript isoforms in the human neural retina

  Usher syndrome is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder characterized by the combination of progressive loss of visual function due to retinitis pigmentosa, sensorineural hearing loss and vestibular dysfunction in a subset of cases. Usher syndrome is clinically and genetically heterogeneous. To date, eleven genes have been identified that are associated with Usher syndrome. It is known that these genes express multiple isoforms, however, for most of the known isoforms their relative importance in the human retina is unknown. To fill this gap, using PacBio long-read mRNA sequencing we aimed to provide an overview of the Usher syndrome transcripts in the human retina.

• Genetic Analysis of Epidermal Inclusion Cysts

  The goal of this study was to identify a potential driver of epidermal inclusion cysts, or epidermoid cysts, (EICs) in human skin. Individuals were recruited at EIC excision appointments made a priori, with no exclusion criteria. Fresh biopsies and saliva were taken from consented patients, and DNA harvested immediately. Whole exome sequencing was performed (150-bp paired end reads) to 200X in tissue and 80X in saliva via Illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencer. Identification of somatic mutations was performed using GATK best practices. Somatic variants in the NEK9 gene were found in 12/14 cases sequenced, with clustering of variants within the RCC1 and kinase domains of the protein.

• Association of Oxidative Stress Pathway Alterations with Risk of Treatment Failure in RTOG9512: A Randomized Trial of Hyperfractionation Versus Conventional Fractionation in T2 Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Vocal Cord

  Based on the growing body of retrospectively collected and heterogeneously treated clinical cohorts and preclinical models, we investigated the clinical importance of NRF2 pathway alteration in an independent set of patients treated uniformly in the large prospective phase III trial RTOG 9512. We tested the hypothesis that patients with T2 glottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) harboring NRF2 pathway mutations would show radioresistance and have more local failure (LF) and locoregional failure (LRF) compared to those who did not have these mutations, using patients who received radiotherapy alone, thus removing potentially confounding effects of other therapies, like surgery or chemotherapy.

• Clinical evaluation of long read sequencing-based episignature detection in developmental disorders

  Some developmental disorders (DD) are marked by specific genome-wide methylation changes, known as episignatures, which can support diagnosis and reveal underlying mechanisms. Current methods rely on indirect methylation profiling. Here, we assessed whether long-read whole genome sequencing with nanopore technology could directly detect both episignatures and genetic variants. We sequenced forty controls and twenty DD patients, using clustering and dimensional reduction to compare methylome patterns with microarray-based signatures. Our classifiers accurately identified episignatures in 17 of 19 patients with pathogenic variants, matching microarray results. This study shows nanopore sequencing enables comprehensive, haplotype-aware genomic and epigenomic analysis for DD diagnostics.

• Genetic mutation profiling of lymphomas arising in the uterine cervix and vagina

  Follicle center lymphoma (FCL) of the lower female genital tract (LFGT) is a rare lymphoma, with fewer than 20 cases reported to date. Since the genetic features of FCL of the LFGT have not been well characterized, we aimed to identify genetic alterations in this tumor through whole-exome sequencing or targeted gene panel analysis. Genomic DNA was extracted from a frozen tissue sample obtained from a surgically resected uterine cervical tumor. Whole-exome sequencing was performed using the Illumina NovaSeq X Plus platform. Library preparation was conducted with the SureSelect Human All Exon V6 kit, and sequencing was carried out with 150 bp paired-end reads.

• CLUSTER RNAseq Study of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis patients in methotrexate cohort

  CLUSTER aims to discover novel disease mechanisms and biomarkers in children suffering from Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Currently, little is known about the pathological disease mechanisms of JIA and there are no validated tools capable of predicting response or non-response to treatment. The study aims to identify biomarkers for treatment response using RNAseq technology. The samples used in this study comes from blood samples that were collected prior to patients receiving methotrexate treatment (naive). These samples were then processed for PBMC isolation followed by sorting cells into 4 different immune cell types. All of these samples were then sequenced by NovaSeq6000.

• Copy-choice recombination during mitochondrial L-strand synthesis causes DNA deletions

  Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions are associated with mitochondrial disease, and also accumulate during normal human ageing. The mechanisms underlying mtDNA deletions remain unknown although several models have been proposed. Here we use deep sequencing to characterize abundant mtDNA deletions in patients with mutations in POLG, the gene encoding mitochondrial DNA polymerase, and show that these have distinct directionality and repeat characteristics. Furthermore, we recreate the deletion formation process in vitro using only purified mitochondrial proteins and defined DNA templates. Based on our in vivo and in vitro findings, we conclude that mtDNA deletion formation involves copy-choice recombination during replication of the mtDNA light strand.

• ISCAPE V(D)J libraries from HA-specific single memory B cells and personalized IGM, IGK, IGL V(D)J repertoire sequencing of four Influenza A exposed individuals

  Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were used to produce paired, full-length IGM, IGK and IGL V(D)J libraries from HA-binding single memory B cells using the ISCAPE (Individualized Single Cell Analysis of Paired Expressed antigen receptors) technique. Locus-specific multiplexed nested PCR with 5’ leader IGHV/IGKV/IGLV and 3’ constant IGG/IGK/IGL primer mixtures was performed before well and plate indexing and paired chain sequencing with an Illumina MiSeq instrument. Expressed total IGM, IGK and IGL V(D)J libraries from each donor were generated to define personalized IG allele content.

• 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. Sorted Tcons were activated using a titration of anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 in combination as well as individually. As a control we cultured cells in the same conditions but without the stimuli. In total, we defined seven conditions from four individuals for sequencing. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Deciphering Intratumoral Molecular Heterogeneity in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma with a Radiogenomics Platform

  Intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) challenges the molecular characterization of clear cell renal cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) with percutaneous biopsies and is a confounding factor in selection of molecular-targeted versus immune-based therapy. Magnetic Resonance (MR) Imaging can noninvasively assess the spatial landscape of the entire tumor. To validate MRI for ITH assessment, we implemented a radiogenomic platform through a systematic imaging based co-localization approach for multi region tissue acquisition from single tumors. We investigated if the spatial changes in imaging can predict the molecular changes using transcriptome and histopathological correlatives. Our study confirmed imaging heterogeneity as a predictor of molecular heterogeneity in ccRCC.

• The evolutionary landscape of colorectal tumorigenesis

  The genetic events that cause colorectal adenomas to progress to carcinomas remain largely undetermined. Using multi-region genome/exome sequencing of 24 benign and malignant colorectal tumours, we probe the evolutionary fitness landscape occupied by these neoplasms. Unlike carcinomas, advanced adenomas frequently harbour sub-clonal driver mutations, hence lack selective sweeps, and have relatively high genetic heterogeneity. Carcinomas are distinguished from adenomas not by nucleotide-level mutations (drivers or burden), but by widespread aneusomies that are usually clonal and often accrue in a “punctuated” fashion. Adenomas evolve across an undulating fitness landscape, whereas carcinomas occupy a sharper fitness peak, probably owing to stabilising selection.
