• Transcriptional changes in GBM through therapy

  Primary glioblastoma (GBM) tumours recur following therapy, owing to treatment resistance mechanisms in unresectable cells. We have sequenced RNA from paired primary and locally recurrent GBM tumours to begin characterising therapy resistant cells and thereby infer the mechanisms by which they evaded treatment. Exome sequencing data from these samples were included in the first data release from the Glioma Longitudinal AnalySiS (GLASS) consortium

• Microenvironment subtypes and association with tumor cell mutations and antigen expression in follicular lymphoma

  Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a B-cell lymphoma with a complex tumor microenvironment that is rich in non-malignant immune cells. We applied single-cell RNA-sequencing to characterize the immune microenvironment of FL. This provides a classification framework of the FL microenvironment, their association with FL genotypes and antigen presentation, and informs different potential immunotherapeutic strategies.

• Cancer-Restricted Cryptic Antigens Are Targets for T Cell Recognition

  Subjects included patients with pancreatic cancer, at least 18 years of age, who were recruited from outpatient clinics and inpatient units at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham and Women's Hospital.Bulk and single-cell transcriptomic profiling of human pancreatic cancer patient samples (direct from tumor or profiling of patient-derived organoids) was performed. Patient-derived pancreatic cancer organoids were profiled in the presence or absence of interferon-gamma stimulation. Healthy-donor CD8 T lymphocytes were ex vivo primed and expanded with candidate non-canonical (cryptic) peptide antigens. Single-cell transcriptomic profiling with paired T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing and molecularly-barcoded HLA tetramers enabled deconvolution and identification of cryptic antigen-reactive TCRs.

• BRAF_and_MEK_resistant_cell_line_clones

  The Sanger Institute has the largest collection of genetically-characterised cancer cell lines world-wide (we have collected >1000 human cancer cell lines which are being screened against >400 cancer therapeutics (http://www.sanger.ac.uk/genetics/CGP/translation). These lines have been characterized to the level of gene copy number, gene expression and cancer gene mutation sequence data. This has enabled us to select melanoma lines with varying BRAF mutational status and that show sensitivity to a range of BRAF inhibitors. Sensitive lines are being used to generate resistant clones by serial exposure to increasing concentrations of BRAF and MEK inhibitors and these are being characterised by genome-wide copy number analysis as well as by whole exome sequencing.

• Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome: A Longitudinal Clinical Study of Patients Receiving Cholesterol Supplementation

  Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a disorder of cholesterol production by the body. It is caused by changes in the DHCR7 gene, which is the blueprint for an enzyme called 7-dehydrocholesterol- delta7-reductase. This enzyme is necessary for the production of cholesterol by all cells in the body. People with SLOS often have malformations of major organs, slow growth, feeding difficulties and intellectual disability or learning problems. Because patients with SLOS cannot make enough cholesterol, it has been proposed that cholesterol supplementation (either with egg yolk or liquid suspensions of cholesterol) could help improve the symptoms of the disease. However, despite the widespread use of cholesterol supplementation, it is still not known whether it works or not. The study will try to provide an answer to this question by studying the disease and its progression while patients are receiving cholesterol. The clinical features of SLOS are thought to be related to low cholesterol and buildup of toxic cholesterol precursors (substances from which cholesterol is formed). But how exactly low cholesterol and toxic precursors contribute to the disease is poorly understood. This knowledge is critically important because it should help discover new therapeutic targets and develop treatments of the disease in the long run. The study will try to fill this gap with a comprehensive clinical and biochemical testing of the study participants over the course of several years. Last, a limitation of previous SLOS research studies has been their low number of participants. This is understandable because SLOS is a rare diseases and few research groups are working on it. However, in order to fully understand the disease, researchers need to study as many patients as possible. This study is unique in that it is run by a network of several highly specialized clinical research sites across the country. Having several sites involved increases the researcher's ability to recruit and study large number of patients, and centralize patients' information in a comprehensive SLOS clinical registry. This registry will be key to identify markers for diagnostic testing, screening and measuring outcomes in future studies of treatment. The purpose of this study is to learn as much as possible about Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) by following a large group of affected children and adults over time. In this study, we will measure cholesterol and other similar chemicals in blood and urine, evaluate development and behavior, do limited medical evaluation, and carry out brain imaging studies.This study will help researchers: learn more about what causes SLOS and how SLOS changes with age, note differences in features of SLOS among those affected, evaluate the effect of giving extra cholesterol in this condition, and develop ways to evaluate whether treatments developed in the future will be helpful.
